Reviews of professor Kieran Aarons

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Take Dr. Aarons!!! He is one of the best professors I've had at Loyola. He does a great job making sense of the readings and his lectures are very interesting. He makes difficult concepts easy to understand. He cares a lot about his students and wants them to do well. A few quizzes and 2 papers. Easy grader for papers. Take Aarons for easy an A!!!

One of the worst professors Ive had at Loyola. Yes, I did alright in his class but I wouldnt take this class again in a million years. As a junior this was one of my hardest classes, and it was a throw away core class. Only take this professor if you absolutely love philosophy and very few people do. STAY AWAY!!! ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE!!!

Great professor that is very knowledgable and provides good discussions. You have to read a good amount, but he provides a study guide.

Professor Aarons is awesome! You have a new reading and discussion post each week, but he goes through the main points in class, so it's okay if you don't understand/don't read. He genuinely wants you to understand the material, and as long as you try you'll be fine grade-wise.

Interesting guy, standard class. Be prepared to read A LOT and discuss the material in class. Grade consists of in-class quizzes, 2 essays and a big group project. Nothing about this class was hard but you do have to try and understand the material. You do have to buy the books we read but you can find most of them free online if you look.

Professor Aarons is the first professor I have taken the time to review on this platform. He is very knowledgable about the subject matter in class without suffocating students with his own opinions/views. Heavily encourages open dialogue. Made me interested in a course I did not expect to be interested. Assignments are easy if you put effort in.

Professor Aarons often makes the content harder than what it could be. Really hard to reach out since he doesn't go to his office hours and it took him 9 days to respond to an email I sent him. He didn't help when I had questions regarding the syllabus and didn't seem to care about the concerns I told him I had.

This class requires a good amount of readings, but if you skim them, you will be fine. He has good lectures that really explain the readings for you. He gives you the questions for the quizzes beforehand, you just have to prepare your answers for them. He is a policy follower for attendance but discussions are interesting if you participate.
