Reviews of professor Patrick Gardner

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He is very boring. I hated his class, especially the boring lectures he makes us go through. His quizzes are hard and tests are hard. His essays are hard too. i would not take his classes if you aren't okay with reading 30 pages each class. Youtube thought me better than him

One of the best professors ever. Class is truly interesting without even being religious. So much to learn and amazing lectures/ way of taking notes.

I don't know where to start. This class makes me wanna jump out the window. Its super boring and no technology what so ever. Every week there are two reading quizzes, one is multiple choice and the other is written response. His exams are 15 multiple choices and 2 written essays. He is super strick. I'm telling you don't take him, trust me!!!!

Walked into class knowing nothing about foreign religions and didn't care tbh. His lectures are actually interesting and easy to follow. Easy grader, clear outlines for tests and the paper wasn't to hard to write; gives a lot of creative freedom, very understanding. Take his class for sure.

Dr. Gardner is the perfect combination of dry wit, genius, and inspiration. His lectures and PowerPoints are hilarious and informative; he will prompt you to think and his class relies on class discussion. There is required reading but it tends to be brief and fair. Ultimately, I had a blast with Dr. Gardner and my discussion partners in class!

I have taken Dr. Gardner for several classes now and am currently in his intro-level class. He has made several changes to his classes since starting and has toned down the amount of lectures from earlier classes. He still holds a strict no tech-policy minus laptops except for the breaks during his longer classes. Great prof would take again.
