final thoughts

Dear class, It has been a true pleasure and an honor for me to teach you about methods of analysis of religion this semester.There were some extraordinary young people in my three classes and our class discussions were priceless!

If you can take some time, would you please consider posting your thoughts about what you learned from the four films and the class discussions?

What new perspectives did you get on religion? Your own faith? or your own skepticism?

What might you do differently in the future regarding your own faith (be it religious or secular) or people of other religions?

Thank you!

  1. I loved this class, you were a great professor and were clearly passionate about the material. The films throughout the course were great, but as we discussed in class, more female lead role films would be nice. I also would have liked more feedback on essays aside from errors reported from turnitin. Have a great summer professor!

  2. thank you, you were a great student. And yes about the essays, although i doubt that it could realistically happen until I am hired as a full time instructor and can reduce my class load from 6 or 7 per semester to 4. Its a nice thought though! Have a great summer

  3. I really enjoyed this class, and you are a great professor indeed. You taught us in a way which made this subject interesting. All the movies were good, but Malcolm X was my favorite one. I would also like to say that you were very helpful throughout the semester. I had a great time in your class. Take care, professor.
