Best class I've taken at UofM. He's funny, engaging, and clearly loves what he does. You can get by without doing all of the readings so long as you take good notes, but the readings from the book he wrote are short and interesting. Study the night before the exam and you can get an A.

Dr. Lopez is the most wonderful person on Earth. He is extremely intelligent, is a living Buddhist encyclopedia, super funny and a great teacher! Take his class. It puts college life into perspective.

Lopez is awesome! He is so knowledgeable about Buddhism but is very humble at the same. He always talks about his experiences with the Dalai Lama--it's crazy. I highly recommend any class with him. It's not too hard a class but you have to do the reading.

Professor Lopez is one of the best professors I have ever had at Michigan. His lectures are clear and extremely engaging. I highly recommend him and this class.

Your grades largely depend on your GSI (essay grades). Midterm and final are easy if you read the texts. His sweaters are sexy as ****.

This class is amazing! Lopez is the best professor I've had. His lectures are interesting and engaging, and the course is focused on learning, not testing. Overall it is fairly easy if you attend lectures and read, but you learn so, so much. Due to the course content and Lopez's teaching style, this course is one that will change your life! Take it

Lopez is great! One of the clearest, most interesting, most entertaining professors I've ever had. Very personable, too. Renowned scholar (check out his books!), but still down-to-earth and dedicated to teaching. Highly recommended! (Do the readings he assigns, too--they're fascinating.)

Go to lecture. You can show up late if you want- spends the first half hour or so on esoteric questions- but go.
Asian231
If you get the chance to take a class with him, do it. He has the best stories and it's a pretty easy A (even though you learn A LOT).

Amazing class! About learning, not testing. Very cool guy. I have heard mixed reviews on intro to buddhism, but I definitely recommend the seminar.
Asian 230
If you do not take a class from Professor Lopez, it is definitely your loss. That is all there is to say that has not already been said.

Lopez has great lectures that are very interesting. He is an extremely knowledgeable man that has really explored his field. The first half of the class is really easy to follow and is truly a great intro., but the second half of the class he gets really in depth and it becomes more difficult.
