Really great teacher. connects with students and is interested in the topics we discuss. A good class to take :-)

She is an interesting woman. Class is a constant argument but philosophy is about things no one agrees on so its appropriate. Her papers are okay not too bad or good.

She is a good teacher, but holds her students to an unreachable standard

great teacher interesting, knows her material. just because she does doesnt mean you dont have to. ready the material and youll be just fine. easy grader only 2 test and a paper

She really knows her stuff, she expects you to, but I didn't and I still passed with a B. You have a journal, two papers, and 2 tests. It's not a class you totally cruise through, but if you got her dont panic!

Pretty good teacher, if you get a class that is into discussion. Very helpful with assignments.

Great professor! Her communication skills are among the best at the school. Tests were challenging. The text,however, was very difficult to get through. I could not help reading each line and thinking to myself, "There must be a clearer way to say t

This is my second class with her. She is a liberal libertarian, but still a fun professor. She cares about her students, but also holds everyone at an extremely high standard. If you particpate her classes will be enjoyable

Dr. Ingersoll is very knowledgeable on the subject matter. She outlines the chapters and the tests pretty much come from that. This class was very easy if you showed up and took notes. There is no excuse for doing poorly in her Comparative Religion class.

Lots of reading that she expects you to know. Tests are not easy so you better study. She knows her stuff.

She's very engaging; strives to have effective communication and discussions and she is completely objective; I got more than an expected overview of world religions. She's interesting, but my friend had her in an earlier class to tell me what to study for :) Made out with a B+ Final proj were fun.

This class had a few talkers (Sociology Majors) and a few future "Fry Guys"(Philosophy Majors). She was awesome, as a rule, but who knows why she would have a PhD in Religious Studies when she gives EVERY indication of being ANTI-Religion!?

The class involved a lot of reading but she really knows her stuff. The tests aren't the easiest things in the world but it's pretty easy to make a b in the class as long as you show up and do the work.

Great Professor! I don't know why people have such a hard time with her, becuase if you express your concerns, she will do anything to meet your needs. Pay attention and show up to class and you'll do fine. Also, it helps to do the reading!

Dr. Ingersoll's classes are intersting and conducive to good class discussion. She's articulate and knowledgeable, and helps you look at various religions from different perspectives. Take a night class with her--fewer freshman, more serious discussions.

Amazing teacher, easily my favorite class. Five books, five scholarly reviews of said books..that's the class. In-class discussions are great and she'll go over anything that doesn't make sense. The books are interesting but sometimes difficult, so come to class if you want to do well! Anyone who fails is **** or lazy.

WONDERFUL PROFESSOR!!!!!!! I can't wait to take another class with her! She explains whatever you have a question on and, while she does expect a lot, it's nothing you can't handle. Group project is fun. Tests are super specific, but if you study you should do fine. COME TO CLASS! it is worth every moment. She's fun and makes learniing easy...yay!

Far too much reading/work for a 6wk class - 100pgs of reading a day, plus an ethnography and two tests? Omitting the ethnography or tests would have made it doable, but don't take this class in the summer unless you don't have a job or anything else to do. It's boring, too - all anthropological, not sociological/religious at all. Try another prof!

I was interested in religion prior to the class, but I didn't know there was a dry side to it. She is an excellent lecturer, but the class usually consists of lectures, and tests. Little discussion. If you're interested in religion, you'll be fine, if not: it can feel a little repetitive day in and out.

GREAT PROFESSOR. Prolific in her field, knowledgeable and articulate. Material and assignments were delightfully challenging. Do the reading and you're golden. Great sense of humor, intimidatingly intelligent. Open to input from students, cooperative, and sincere. One of the best professors I've had at UNF. Take her if you can!

She is a great professor! There is little room to screw up, as your grade relies heavily on your test grades. If you do the reading and participate, it won't be that hard. If you're interested in religion, this is a great class to take, but it would be boring for someone who has no interest. She's very respectable and very smart in her field.

One of the kindest and most interesting as well as friendliest and down to earth professors I have had the pleasure of having while at UNF. She really does everything she can for everyone including making the classroom atmosphere very respectful and yet light-hearted, even when dealing with controversial or serious subject matter. A+++++

She is an ok teacher. She is helpful but this class requires A LOT of reading. If you hate to read do not take this class. Overall, if you like religion she is a good teacher. If you don't then don't take this class. It is not easy!

She is a great professor! I really knew nothing about religion before taking this class and I learned alot from her. This was the only class that I never wanted to skip. You can tell she is really interested in the material and is interesting to listen to. It is really easy to pass as long as you go to class and study the notes.

Extremely helpful and nice to look at. ;)

LOVE HER! Took her for Religion as Culture. GREAT teacher! Has a laid-back Californian attitude, but LOVES her subject and knows lots about it. However, you MUST attend class and read the book. If you love religion, this class is awesome and fun to take.

You have to read the books. Theres only 4 grades and the test arent that easy. She is a good teacher but not easy.

Took this class in Summer A session. You've got to do the reading and be prepared to discuss the material. Her tests aren't hard if you've done the reading and taken notes during lecture. She teaches well and will help you really understand a concept. Made it interesting for everyone-Great professor!

She is very nice and very clear. If you do the work you will do fine. She really seems to care about what she is doing and you are sure to learn a lot

She is really nice, and makes class really easy. There are 3 test and 1 group project. The class is really easy as long as you take notes, I recommend her!

Very nice.

Very nice lady. Listens to everyone and considers all thoughts and opinions. Interesting lectures, but read so you can follow along and join in the discussion. Also, study your notes closely - the tests aren't hard if you do. Pretty lenient on definitions. Good class, easy B / A

Very nice teacher, knowledgeable. The book is the basis for her powerpoint lectures, which she does not give out on Blackboard, and she only goes over material once, so you can't really miss class. Only like 3 grades, all tests, so make sure you study the book and went to class. Emphasis on STUDY THE BOOK

This professor is amazing! Very kind and willing to work with anyone on any questions or problems. She is extremely intelligent in the religious studies field, but more importantly is open minded and considerate. You will have an excellent grade as long as you read, take notes, and engage in class discussion! I recommend her to anyone and everyone

I really enjoyed this course and her teaching. There are only four grades, but as long as you study it is easy to get good grades.

i've taken professor ingersoll for three different religion courses. i could not give a good enough recommendation. she is an excellent teacher, very willing to work with you. gives partial credit on tests. attendance not mandatory but most test info comes from powerpoint notes and readings so it helps to be there. TAKE HER!

I had Conmparitive religions with her and she is not the easiest professor. You take 4 exams and you have 1 final project. She does not drop any tests :(. If you have a concern, she will not cooperate to solve it with you. You must read the books in order to pass her hard exams that consist of 20 ques (40points) and 3 essays (60 points).

dude don't listen to the previous post. prof Ingersoll is so great! her exams are easy if you listen in class and are there for the review. easy A. ka-ching!

She's awesome! You have to read the material and pay attention in class but it really pays off. She really wants you to pass and her tests aren't too difficult; if you explain yourself thoroughly, she'll give you credit even if you're completely wrong about something. She's really funny and she knows what she's talking about. Take her class!!

Prof. Ingersoll is great, most of the people that don't like her class don't like it because of WHAT she teaches not HOW she teaches she is a good professor and convinced me to use be part of the new religion major. If your taking her class for an elective it's not an easy A but it's not super hard either if your a religion major take her class!!!!

Tests are easy as long as you pay attention in class. Class project was so easy. She's funny and interesting and really makes whats she's teaching relatable to someone who has no prior knowledge of the subject.

She adapts to her student's feedback so it gets better with time. Hard tests, but if you study they aren't so bad. The BYO religion project was fun. However, she is obsessed with punctuality, is sarcastic, and very unsympathetic. I recommend her if you can be an adult, and roll with the life's not fair moments because she doesn't care for excuses

Pretty easy teacher. As long as you pay attention in class and read the textbook, you'll do well on her tests. They can be pretty confusing though because she words the questions badly. But, she's a nice teacher. No final, just a final project which is super easy.

Never have I felt more free to ask questions than with Dr. Ingersoll. She is amazingly knowledgeable, and she is also able to teach in a way that is clear and easy to understand. It isn't an easy class, but if you do the reading and attend lecture, passing the tests should be no big deal. There also is not a comprehensive final.

Dr. Ingersoll can seem super unapproachable, but really is a sweet lady. She genuinely cares for her students, but doesn't go easy on them. Be willing to put in the work, and reach out to her when needed. 4 exams, mostly multiple choice/essays but they're not too horrible. Lots of reading, & an ethnography portfolio done over the whole semester.

Love this professor. She really wants you to do well and she is always available, gives good feedback and quickly answers emails. Lectures are good, tests are exactly on the info read and info in lectures. No final just a term paper on site visits. She is very fair and one of my favorites!

This class is pretty tough. Very textbook heavy. The lectures are long and sometimes do not correlate to the test material. The exams at the end of each module are worth a lot of your grade, so get ready to study hard. At the end, theres a term paper and the rubric for it is straightforward. However, the professor is kind and very responsive.

If youre looking to take a class where you actually learn things and aren't just making yourself present to get a grade then this is the class for you. Wonderful professor with a fun teaching environment. Tests will require you to develop a certain way to study for them, overall would take her again

A lot of work, but if not too hard to complete in time as long as you don't wait until the last minute. Site visits to religious communities required. Exams are heavily based off of her lectures and the readings- Don't skip them!! Provides good feedback on discussion posts and final paper.

Worthwhile. Would take again
