Reviews of professor Karen Ross

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Such a sweet professor. She is so nice and will work with you to do anything. She is smart and presents the information well. Fun projects and essays are easy.

First semester back in-person after the pandemic, and it was a bit chaotic. Book wasn't necessary & attendance optional. Karen was very loose with the assignments in terms of criteria and she even dropped the group project! Great communicator. Always let us know when class is cancelled. Only peeve is that she pulled down her mask when lecturing.

Prof Ross is a solid professor in Theology. She makes it semi interesting and is a really nice person with some interesting takes, but her lectures can run pretty long and small group activities are pretty boring. overall, she's very nice but the class is pretty dry. Not a hard A

Prof. Ross is very nice and makes Theology pretty painless. Mostly oral exams and minor papers, show up and you should do fine.

Karen was an okay teacher for those who have taken theology for the last 12 years. She liked to take uneccasry pints, and if she couldn't take the points from one area she would target you in another (ex. participation, reading quizzes if you did to well on the tests). There was no need to purchase ANY of the books because they are free online. :)

The idea of a required Theology course put me off originally, but Dr. Ross made it my favorite class that semester. She is very kind and makes the class super engaging. Some prior knowledge of Christianity will help you in the class, but you should be fine without it. Never preachy-- everything is purely informational. Lecture and paper based.

A really easy going woman and a very easy grader. Very clear about what she wants on assignments, and will let you respond in essays with bullet points instead of paragraphs. She makes this class as simple as it can be.
