A LOT of work. But nothing I couldn't handle and I absolutely hate reading textbooks. Really nice woman. Able to speak to her in her office if ever I needed help. Would take her again. Learned a lot.
The hardest RS101 class at SHU. Do not take, unless one wants to write numerous reflections on boring stuff. She also requires service learning which means ten hours not spent full of fun. Her class is cool, but the work load is inundating.
TOO MUCH WORK!!!!!!!!!!!
Took her for comparative religion. She really knows her stuff, but as far as writing assignments- you better be ready. I would also consider her very difficult as far as a grader on both writing assignments and tests.
Ridiculously hard- lots of HARD reading and a lot of writing assign. Must do ten hours community service and write long reflections on them. Never misses class or lets you out early. Bad enough to make you consider converting religions.
Lots of reading material. Is very passionate about religion, and sometimes can have an attitude but otherwise, not too bad and she understands that people have time-management issues.
She is a very nice lady who is pleasant to talk to, but an incredibly hard proffessor. Many times she takes your questions as attacks and will become bitter at you. It is possible for a person to do well, ,but very hard and lots of work.
For the love of god, STAY CLEAR of her, not to be mean, but she teaches the intro class like it was a masters course. And don't get me started about the tests. Nice lady, insane teacher.
LOTS of reading but worth the challenge
Worst teacher I have ever had, if you want 2 writing assignments ever week then by all means take her class
Lots of work but she's worth it.
Hard grader and holds strong beliefs. Tough class but hang in there and be friendly and you will be fine.
She gives a lot of work, and there is always something due. I like her as a person, but the way she goes from the assignments to the quizzes is horrendous. Stay clear if u want your sanity
Greeley is a very understanding professor and harbors very good relationships with students. While she may assign alot of reading/writing, it is all directly relevent to the point she's trying to get across. I'd recommend her.
Don't take from her if you care about your GPA. Take from someone else and focus on the classes that will actually be applicable in the real world. She's too tough on freshman.
Stay away! This woman gives too much work for her own good and yours. It never ends. Just when you think you are done, you have a marathon more of work to accomplish. Although she does have good relationships with students.
VERY HARD!!!! the work never stops, once you think your all caught up, be prepred because you havent even touched the amount of work shes going to give you. Tests are insane because she teaches the intro course like an honors. Nice lady, but gives way too much work for a freshman class.
very in depth for a 101 class, she is extremely unclear and all over the place and gives a****load of homework, i got through the class with a decent grade but its not worth the agony..stay clear of her if u can
She is a nice person, but beware of work load. Her classes have an extreme load of reading and homework. Do not disagree with her on a paper or journal entry...your grade will suffer. Overall okay, but be prepared to work your butt off

It's hard class especially if you never really studied any type of religion before but if you do your work and take advantage of the extra credit assignments, CLA, and office hours, then you should do well.
Awesome teacher, she makes you work, but you learn a lot about the material and yourself
She is a great person and is easy to talk to, but her work load is overwhelming. Do not take her class if you don't have time to do volunteer work.
Dr. Greeley expects alot from her students and that's a good thing if you're an RS major or interested in challenging yourself. Those who whine about the workload either have no interest in religion or are unprepared for college level work. Lot's of reading, writing, and in-class discussion. Challenges you to think outside your comfort zone.
Very informative, likes to see others learn about themselves and religions.
listen Dr. Greeley may give a lot of work but she is a great person. If you're not doing so well in the class then go to her office, take a seat, and have a chat...she's great to talk to, and if you're able to connect with her a good grade will be seen in your future.
Honestly - this was the worst professor I ever had in all my college years! The work load was definitely overwhelming but that wasn't the only terrible part. Although I found her very knowledgeable on the subject -she expected the class to be experts as well. I truly learned nothing despite writing about 15 papers that semester!!
DO NOT TAKE. im doing great in the class but for a freshamn religion(and im a senior) you feel like your going for your PHD. She clearly favors students and is not always clear during discussion. Her syllabus begins with 2 homeworks that are the due the first day of class so you are already behind and now have 3 due by the second class.
personally i didnt like her. she gives tons of work and expects way more than most for a freshman religion class. also all her tests and quizes are all essay format, so if you dont like that then stay away. she does give a lot of extra credit opporunities though.
terrible teacher, favors certain students; does not know howto teach people that do not already know the topic, thus not a good TEACHER
Professor Greeley is a very nice lady but she give a lot of work. Very hard class for just a intro level...she expects you to know more than you should know at that level..she does tend to favor certain students but she gives a lot of extra credit which could help you in the long run.
She assigned readings and films that were never discussed, continually ran behind; wrote illegible comments on papers; showed bias and politics; showed favoritism toward students; asked more of some than of others; spent little or no time on several aspects of the topic.
definitely favors students.. make sure you don't make eye contact with her during lecture or shell call on you for the rest of the year. a lot of work, but if you study and do the homework its not too difficult to get an A
Took her for intro to religion, but almost felt godlike for the amount of work. Tells you about her son that goes to brown and husband works on wallstreet. She taught the class as if it were brown and I worked my a** off. I studied and read till my brain fried and received an A-. Guess I can take a course at brown. very hard tests. papers.4 books
omg, do not take her. she assigns more readings and more work than you can imagine, and reading them don't help. i read all of it, studied my ass off, stayed up all night a few times to read and study and i got a D on the midterm. she also favors students and class participation is a MUSTTTT
SO MUCH WORK!Professor Greeley assigned more work in her class than any other teacher including corses that were specifically for my major and this was just an Intro class. The readings are lengthy and she ask very specific questions on all of them. shes very kind, but Look for another Professor if you can.
She is an extremely hard professor and you never know what to expect on her quizzes/tests. The good thing is she gives a lot of extra credit opportunities so you can boost your grade. She is not a bad teacher though - she's really nice and knowledgeable of her subject and extremely approachable. She'll always call on you in class...
Greeley is knowledgeable, but kind of worthless as an instructor. Complete technophobe, treats undergrads like preschoolers, and assigns plenty of busywork. I've been teaching 10+ years myself, so I know bad when I see it.
Teaches RS-101 like a 400 level class extremely hard you must read everything on syllabus for a decent grade
Greeley is an excellent professor. She is well educated and knowledgeable in her field. She loves when students have opinions and strives to cultivate these opinions in all her students. She is a tough professor and does give a lot of work, however the workload is manageable and will certainly make you look at the world through a different lens :)
Although she is very knowledgeable in the subject, she treats the students like children, and is on a power trip in the realm of classroom control. I went into her classroom with the knowledge that she was tough but that did not deter my entrance. However after my current experience I felt it necessary to tell fellow students not to take her.
Professor Greeley may be knowledgeable, but she is extremely opinionated. If you disagree she will reword what you said and make you sound like a vegan liberal tree hugger, because that's what she is.very hard. very rude. very condescending. dont take her
She was a really tough grader, and handed all our papers back the last week of class so we had no time to improve our grade. She gives a lot of work, sometimes at 9pm the night before class. She also gave me a hard time when I left class because I was in the bathroom throwing up. I wouldn't recommend her, unless you enjoy the topic and extra work.
JUST NO. DON'T TAKE HER EVER
Love her class. So easy. Can use notes and books on the midterm. Take home final. Sometimes can grade a little hard. But still an anamzing and easy teacher for CC.
Very strict and hard. do not take her.
extremely opinionated and doesnt accept any opinion different from her own. Learn to write what she wants to hear or youll get a bad grade. Nice lady outside the classroom
She is a really tough grader! Does not reply to emails and is useless when you talk to her. She doesn't like to hear your opinion and wants everything done her way. One of the most annoying professors I've had.
Extremely opinionated. Way to into what she teaches that she runs out of time during class. Very unclear expectations of her students. Lots of extra credit, but she actually grades it. Open book midterm and final but little clarification of what o focus on. I'd get out of her class sooner had I known she would be this unbearable
Do NOT take her. If you have her, switch out. Very rude, nasty and opinionated and tries to make you look dumb in front of the class. A lot of work and reading. Her midterm and final are 5 essay questions that are very hard even though they're open book. Does give a lot of extra credit. If you do not agree with her opinions you'll do badly.
thought it was an overall good class. one of my "easier" profs.I wouldn't be able to tell you what I learned but after minutes of her rambling shed get to the point. unless you suck up from the beginning of the semester, she won't like you. chooses favs. READ all texts. DO ALL EXTRA CREDIT ASSIGNMENTS! they help. she gives a lot. got 70 points extr
Was an extremely opinionated professor. Class lectures were oftentimes hard to follow. Always considered a strong student until that course. Strongly recommend taking another professor.
If you want to feel victimized take her. If you want your opinion to be worth nothing take her. Also make sure you are not a male or eat any type of meat (her terminology is animal flesh). Do not take her. Avoid at all costs! If you have to take this class, I highly recommend you take it another semester!!!!!! Safe yourself, no joke!!!!!!!!!!!
She's very opinionated, especially for a class that isn't totally a religion class. She gets offended when people don't believe in God or are not talking about religion. If the class is silent for a minute after she asks a question, she'll make you write the answer and hand it in. Assigns 3-4 essays 5-7 pages each. She's tough, so work to pass.
Definitely a very smart woman, but condescending and pretty rude to students when she does not agree with them. Really big on participation and if you don't talk in class she won't hesitate to give you a bad grade. 3 essays throughout the semester, no exams, small in-class writing assignments. Not necessary to buy the course reader.
She is a great lady contrary to what some people say. No tests. Lets you rewrite papers if you don't like your grade. If you get on her good side and participate in class she'll like you and you will do well. Took her two semesters in a row, got an A both times.
she's really into her job which is nice but she picks favorites and if you dont go with her opinion she will deduct points
DO NOT TAKE HER. This will be the most stressful class you will take. If you don't agree with her she will be rude to you. Participation is the most important thing and she asks ridiculous questions no one knows how to answer. Only reason I got a good grade was by doing 4 extra credits and participating A LOT.
First off she takes her mandatory CIT class WAY too seriously. She believes that the CIT class is as important or more important than your major courses. Second, if you don't completely agree with what she says then you will NOT pass. I have written things that go both with and against what she believes and only did poorly when i disagree with her.
Don't recommend taking her! Takes freshman seminar way too seriously. Hard quizzes (that no one gets an A on), a lot of readings, about 2 presentations, 2 long papers & 2 mandatory colloquia papers as well as other dumb assignments. Discussion COULD be interesting, but her questions make no sense. Nice lady but does WAY too much as a teacher.
Professor Greeley is a very tough grader and her essay prompts are not easy to understand even after you meet with her. Her handwriting is also terrible that her feedback is hard to read. There is also a lot of reading and it is required. Although a nice woman I would not take her again.
Endlessly huge amounts of homework dumped on students in rapid succession. Even before one is handed in another is assigned and then on top of that extra credit assignments are added. Lectures are fast and impossible to keep up with. As a vegan she calls meat eaters "flesh eaters" It's a vicious cycle of too much homework for non-religion majors.
dont lose your syllabus!!! Textbooks (both) are a necessity. But overall a pretty great teacher. Just be prepared for a lot of work.
Prof. Greeley was a great teacher. Very knowledgeable about all topics we covered. The conversations that we had in the class were wonderful and Prof. Greeley gave them great direction. Only complaints is her handwriting is very poor which makes it impossible to read feedback on papers.
This lady is the worst. World Religions at NCC with her, & she didn't seem to truly know a lot about each religion. I took the class with friends of other religions, & we all felt like she made our religions seem like cults & not at all what they are. Overall a rude instructor, & can cop an attitude with you over nothing. HW was always really long.
Doesnt explain prompts, very opinionated, very rude, makes you write papers on a book with little to no explanation. Do not take her
Very opinionated and the homework load is unnecessary.
Just an unnecessary amount of homework. I was typing about 3-4 pages for the homework twice a week. She also decided to give us homework and have it due during finals week. And at least once every class she would call meat eaters "Flesh Eaters". Since she is a Vegetarian and makes that very clear every class. Overall just a terrible experience.
Makes the class so much more difficult than it has to be. I have friends that have taken the same class with different professors and they said it's one of the easiest classes they have taken but it is the complete opposite here. A ridiculous amount of homework and expects absolute perfection if you don't meet that then don't expect a good grade.
absolutely terrible just don't take.
Very intense for a freshmen course. Suggest another professor
Awful professor. When everyone who had another professor said this class was easy, there is a problem. She has opinionated views (i.e. politics, laptop stickers, etc.) and is a pure vegan. This should be online since there was a ballistic amount of work and her rambling. Please take somebody else for GPA and time's sake.
This class involves useless busywork that is graded way too hard. She has horrible handwriting and takes forever to grade. Get ready to read the book and answer the questions that go along with it. You will have work due pretty much every single class and it won't get graded for probably 3 weeks after. She is also horrible at emailing back.
She doesn't believe in science Absolute disgrace to Sacred Heart she should be fired I felt I wasted an entire semester in her class learned nothing but fairy tails
VERY heavy on participation- except here's the thing... she does not let anyone else but herself speak. She does not give any feedback on any papers and is an extremely harsh grader. She expects the students to lead the class, however she doesn't give anyone else a chance to speak. Posts the prompts the day before they're due- avoid at all costs.
Absolutely awful. Would not take her again if you paid me. Never responds to emails and does not give any feedback on any assignments. Did not put in ANY grades until the day before finals so at that point there is nothing you can do to fix it. EXTREMELY harsh grader for literally no reason. Treats it like a lecture despite it being a seminar
Worst prof ive ever had. extremely tough grader and is very vague on prompts and instructions. talks the entire time about who knows what and does not let anyone speak other than her. CIT is my worst grade this semester
Makes a class thats mandatory so difficult. 30% of your grade is participation but she doesn't let anyone else talk even though its supposed to be a seminar. Assignments are always short notice and shes an extremely harsh grader but gives you NO FEEDBACK. Put no grades in until the last week of the semester. For the sake of your GPA do not take her
I strongly felt that this professor did not want to see me succeed in her class. I tried to participate several times throughout each class period however was still only given a B- for my participation grade. Additionally, I emailed this professor several times with questions about assignments and once to let her know that I had to leave the Zoom m
Not even done with the course yet but she is the worst. Nice woman with good intentions, but puts assignments on Blackboard without ever mentioning them. She piles assignments on at the end of the semester until we're drowning. She gives vague to little instructions and is a very tough grader. She made my semester very stressful. Don't recommend
Please think twice before signing up for this prof. She is not a good communicator, I asked her for a letter of rec because I thought she liked me as a student, but she ghosted me a day before letters were due after previously agreeing. More of my friends and classmates have taken her and been extremely frustrated as well. Just not worth it...
Terrible Professor as she does not grade anything. This is supposed to be an easy class but she does not want to see her students succeed. Don't take her simple as that.
I put hours of work into this class and still received grades that I am not used to getting. You have to participate every class. She is not afraid to fail people. I do not recommend taking this class.
Was not a good class. Feel like I didnt learn anything because she got off topic a lot. We were set back in the syllabus which created a lot of work at the end of the semester. With the pile up of work, it became outrageous and even when a bunch of students expressed their concerns of feeling overwhelmed, she did very little to help.
takes forever to grade, grades ridiculously hard. just overall not a good professor
This class is the first grade below an A- I have received in college. She is the hardest grader and gives absolutely no feedback. She never answers her email and graded more than half the assignments the last week of school. I've always been a good writer however, I would dread to submit assignments because she was such a tough grader. DO NOT TAKE!
She is extremely rude and rambles the entire class, she would continuously get off track and talk about nonsense. The toughest grader I have ever had, I was continuously getting low grades that I was never used to having. You have to participate at least twice every class for her to give you a high participation grade. DO NOT TAKE HER!!!!
Prof. Greeley had a fun class; However, she added assignments in the last week of class that put me straight into stress mode. I passed with an A, but I just wish she put all assignments on the syllabus that was I knew what to expect. She's respectful and loves hearing opinions/ideas from others. Grades papers within 2-3 days.
Worst professor ever. Do not take her
I dreaded coming to this class... she says IDEAR. The whole time she just talks about things that led us so far off task. She gets snappy and if you don't participate at least once a class you will not have a good participation grade. Lots of reading and hard concepts to write about. Also the hardest grader and doesn't provide feedback
Was physically in the hospital and she would not make an exception for me and never responded to my emails.
DO NOT TAKE! First, I am a nursing major which is obviously a difficult major. This class is my lowest grade. Participation counts for 40% of my grade and if you aren't there you can't make anything up, resulting in 0's. She is an unbelievably difficult and unfair grader, and she does not respond to emails. At all. I could go on and on.
She is a very difficult grader and gives lots of homework which are not straightforward questions. You could put exactly what the book says in your own words and it will still be wrong. Not good at answering emails. Would not take her classes again.
Lots of home work and reading. Hardest cit teacher, other professors that teach cit are easy and fun. DO NOT take her for cit, so much work for no reason.
Single handedly the worst professor I've ever had. I dread going to her class, she never has anything nice to say and every student I've met that has her has nothing nice to say about her either. She is unnecessarily rude, short tempered, and enjoys when students struggle. I've never had so much anxiety about a class in my life. STAY CLEAR.
Love Greeley. She wrote one of my letters of rec. She is compassionate and will grade your hw late/even grade it again if you get a bad grade the first time. She has high expectations but she makes them clear, and she gives you more than enough time/attention/resources to do well. Would absolutely take her again if I could!!!
Awful teacher, so awful. The single worst thing of my college career was this teacher. Tough grader and uses her "pop quizzes" as a super power because "she can"
DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR.
She is the hardest grader and gives absolutely no feedback. Entirely of class is her going off track and giving assignment. If you wanna pass dont take her class!!
Never in my life have I had a worse professor/teacher. She's very intelligent but an absolute horrific professor. She does not care if you are physically ill, she will not give makeups for in-class writing assignments. These assignments she also grades like you are in an English class. This class is supposed to be a joke and ended up being my worst
Do NOT take her. She forms an opinion about you on maybe the second day of class and sticks with it and proceeds to let that cloud her judgment when grading your work. You could do everything right, but if you disagree with her it does not matter. She will call on you randomly and ruin your entire day... good luck if you don't read what she assigns
do not take her if you value your mental health. she does not care for her students, all lecture class. midterm and final, 3 books if you do not have them you will fail the class. if you do not read you will fail. hard grader, would not recommend.
One of the worst professors I ever had. Gives little feedback, is such a tough grader, and she assigns way too much work. Make sure you go to class and participate because that weighs in so much on your grade. Also, she just talks and she does not give any PowerPoint presentations during lecture which makes class unbearable. Do. Not. Take. Her.
It seems like all she wants for people is to not do well for her classes. She is such a tough grader and she is also not a nice person. She always has something negative to say no matter how hard you try. Good luck if you have her.
The worst CIT Professor at shu. All she does is talk about politics and shes a miserable women. The hardest grader ever and just genuinely not a nice person. This class made me miserable because of how nasty she is. Would never take this Professor please save yourself.
Avoid her classes. She makes class so much more difficult than it has to be and sets way too high expectations for such simple classes. Literally awful.
don't take any of her classes. she sets expectations way too high and thinks her class is the most important thing in the world. you have to participate every class and she is very clear about her syllabus and literally mentions it every class. avoid her classes. not even a class you can skip because attendance is very important with her
I thought this class was gonna be hard from the first few classes because she said you had to show up and you had to participate otherwise you wouldn't get a good grade but I skipped 4 classes and I participated probably twice the whole semester and still got an A. It turned out to be one of my easiest classes and I ended up liking this professor.
Writing prompt papers due every weekend, colloquium papers and a final paper essay. They are graded extremely critically and like literature essays despite most of them being opinion papers. The seminar portion in class is fine, but the grading of the papers and the amount of time they can take for a mediocre grade is disheartening and tiresome!
Such a hard grader, lots of reading, and grades participation. Do not recommend unless you need the class
I have her for CIT201 and she takes attendance and participation so seriously. And when you try to participate she will start interrogating you in front of the class. And will randomly pick you to be a discussion leader. One time she was sick and cancelled class the morning of, and she assigned a formal essay due two days later.
Professor Greely is a great teacher. Not a lot of work but participation matters a lot. Show up to class and participate and you'll be fine.
Do not take a class with Greeley if possible! Not understanding at all, gives unnecessary amounts of homework, and is an extremely hard grader. Makes you have to do two colloquia assignments plus a final essay. I had one of the most unenjoyable experiences in this class and will never take one with her again.
DONT TAKE DR GREELEY. She is a difficult grader and participation matters. You will fail. She chooses random classes when students aren't aware and will grade you. She calls students out in class will give you a tough time if she doesn't agree with your opinion. You get put on the spot in-front if she doesn't agree even on opinion based questions.
This class stressed me out way more than it needed to. There was a lot of reading and the professor expected you to be able to understand everything we read in class. She is a very tough grader when it comes to writing. Ultimately, I think the main reason I did well in this class is because I talked a lot and participation is 40% of the grade.
A good person, is just a harsh grader and expects you to write a paper or in-class essay based off of unclear directions. We were never able to get through a whole book we read because we would analyze the first few chapters for hours and then have to move on.
Her teaching style was just very unclear. I felt like I learned nothing in that class. English for me is typically a simple and not too difficult class and she just made it boring, confusing and threatened to give pop quizzes because no one would participate, but no one would participate because they were just as confused.
Probably one of the worst professors I've ever had. Grades on a 10 or 5 point scale, so it is so easy to have a bad grade in her class. Grades based on favorites, and will call you out during class if you don't agree with her. I learned nothing in this class. If you can, do NOT take her. Takes forever to grade assignments. Do not take her.
It is almost impossible to do good one of the toughest graders I have ever seen. It is so hard to get a good essay grade. Participation is 40% of your grade same as attendance so just participate as much as you can. She's very hard to get into contact with and didn't post any of my grades until end of April. I would not take her again.
She is very rude and not a good teacher. She gives vague directions and not enough time to complete in-class writing. When no one participates right away, she gets mad. Also, she is bad at grading and only grades stuff either out of 5 or out of 15.
She was not originally my professor, she took over for an online religion course. She is such a hard grader. She also has multiple assignments due on Saturday nights. She wants you to write personal reflections on different religions then takes points off for it not being personal enough when none of us are that religion. So hard for no reason!!
I wasnt even supposed to have her and i'm a nursing major and this is harder than my actual courses. She makes everything seem like the world revolves around this course. It is so boring and she makes the slideshows with no information at all. She also never grades anything in a timely matter. DO NOT TAKE HER.
I took this class in hopes of an easy A but instead, I'm spending more time on work for this class than I do on my nursing classes. She gives 3 assignments a week with hour-long lectures of her just listening to herself talk, nothing is related to the assignments. Gave me a 70 on a personal reflection about a religion I don't even follow....
Actually the worst professor ever. She wasn't even supposed to teach this course. I went to her for extra help and she didn't even pull up my grades or anything. She just said that she graded the midterms and most people did well. That was a month ago. The midterms are still not posted. Takes off points for writing "6" instead of "six".
If there is one prof on this entire campus I would steer clear from it is Greeley. Was not my original professor. She could not care less if you have other classes or obligations. I took 6 classes this semester and spent the most time and effort on her class and it isn't even for my major. If you cherish your grades do not take her for ANYTHING.
She was so so difficult. I am a STEM major and can easily say I put more work into her class than any of my science courses. She was extremely slow in grading all the assignments so I made the same mistakes over and over without knowing she was taking points off for it. She accepts no late work "under any circumstances". Her Blackboard was a mess.
DO NOT TAKE. she is the worst teacher I've ever had. She doesn't email you back, takes forever to grade. If running out of time in the course she'll give you four days for the last paper, meanwhile doesn't even have the first paper graded. Does not care about students. I dont know how she still has a job.
The worst teacher NEVER EVER TAKE HER. I easily put in the most work out of all of my classes into this class and it's not even for my major. She is awful and doesn't care about her students. She gives insane assignments that she doesn't actually read she just gives you whatever grade you feel like, which is always going to be a bad grade.
Do. Not. Take. Her. Course. I repeat. Do. Not. Take. Her. Course. I have never, and I mean never, in my life struggled as much as I have with her online religion course. Her grading is subjective and she takes forever for to grade and give feedback, and she records insane online lectures of her just rambling for over an hour. Terrible experience.
I can honestly say out of my college years so far this professor is by far THE WORST PROFESSOR I HAVE EVER HAD. Oh my god was she terrible. Trust me when I say this I am helping everyone out who is reading this now, DO NOT CHOOSE THIS PROFESSOR. Enough said. She is the worst. She will never help you with anything and will just make you very angry
Avoid her class if possible. Poor use of Blackboard, unclear assignments, no online help. Inconsistent grading with vague rubrics. Unreasonable attitude towards students, especially if you leave class. Overall, a stressful, unfair, and unproductive experience.
i have anxiety and this class did not help with it.
TERRIBLE WORST PROFESSOR EVER
By far, the worst professor/teacher I have EVER had in my LIFE. She has an insane ego and will never hush about being vegan, loving animals (and not in a cute way, in a way where EVERY ASSIGNMENT has to do with animals) and how she refuses to believe that anyone in her class actually reads. I'd rather drop out of college than have her again.
Astonishingly awful. Rambles in class, keeps bad time, takes forever to grade, and then has the nerve to grade harshly according to a rubric that awards >90% of points to content. Fails to teach and inspire then gets mad when students don't feel motivated to work. I felt bad for my shy classmates, whom she patently ignored. AVOID HER IF YOU CAN
Avoid taking her if you can. She never puts in grades, TOUGH GRADER, and rambles on in class about random stuff not relating to the book. If you don't participate, she'll threaten pop quizzes, but her questions don't make sense. Makes you do 2 colloquia and final was outrageous.Never answers emails and is super passive aggressive
You had to participate in this class or you would get a horrible grade. As someone who did not like to speak out in class, I had to because my grade depended on it. She takes forever to grade and when she does she is the toughest grader. Participation is the only way to pass the class because I could never get above a 70 on her papers.
Literally so much work. Took this class online and had more work for it than all my other classes combined and she wouldn't grade anything until the very last week of class.
WORST PROFESSOR TO EVER EXIST!!!!!!!! she actually made me so depressed and have so much anxiety. I have never felt this way before about a class in my entire life. Participation was a big grade but I was absolutely terrified to participate in her class because if she didnt like what you said she would come for you and embarass you. Never take her!
Avoid taking her if possible. To put it lightly, she is highly difficult to work with, and defines the word "unpleasant".
She isn't crazy hard she is just annoying and mean sometimes. If no one participates in class she gets angry and says "Oh we could all just make this a quiz". She's nothing terrible though, But I recommend taking someone else.
Avoid this class at all costs - the workload is insane, the grading is subjective, and the professor is completely disconnected. If you must take it, supplement with unstuck ai and other study tools to get through it.
I did the calculations on how I would end the course, and I missed one class, participated every single class and also did decent on every paper. 86%. toughest grader but she is a very nice lady I feel bad that no one participates because she brings up interesting topics. If grading was not life or death, I would say go for it.
Prof Greeley is incredibly devoted to the information she teaches, and demands the best (meaning participation) out of her students. I recommend that all students who take her, challenge themselves to get the most out of her classes, you will do well despite the fact that she is a tough grader.
terrible professor. rude and exams were very difficult. do not take her
This is one of the worst professor at sacred heart. She never answers your emails. Participation is a huge part of your grade, as someone who rarely participates in class I really struggled with a good participation grade. She grades very harshly and doesn't grade in a timely manner. Overall, she is not a good professor. DO NOT TAKE!!
She has a goddess complex and thinks shes better than everyone else.
Dr. Greeley was a great professor for CIT. Yes, attendance and participation are mandatory, but she is very sweet and only wants to see her students succeed. Lots of great discussions in this class. I would definitely take her class again.
Lot of negative reviews about Prof. Greeley, but if you come to class with the reading done and know what you are talking about, you will get an A. She is not as bad as people say she is, she is really sweet and very old fashioned. 2 essays and some in-class writings but if you try you will succeed.
This teacher is disrespectful to students and will make them feel like they are less than her. Some simple questions are answered with attitude and disrespect. She is not nice.
Very nice and truly cares for what she is teaching. If you try to participate at least once per class your grade will be completely fine. I did see that she was a bit of a hard grader but if you at least try you'll be fine. Really didn't assign a lot of work, only did 2 essays and a group project. Then like a couple easy in class writings.
She's really rude and has an odd teaching style. She rolls her eyes when people walk in late and pauses class. She talks the whole class, but not even about the material. She talks about her life and random facts that make no sense. She's a harsh grader and grades on in class writing which are your opinion. Don't take her.
if you are an athlete don't even think of taking this course. She has a no excused absense policy that makes up your entire grade. I missed maybe 5 classes the whole semester and it completely tanked my grade and was told there was "nothing I could do about it" and ended up failing solely because of what should've been EXCUSED ABSENCES
She is all around just a bad professor. Please don't take her if you want to just get a pre-req out of the way. She's super harsh with her grading and goes off-topic in class a lot, but then blames us when we don't know what to write for in-class assignments. also very strict about attendance and won't excuse you even if you have a doctor's note
I loved this professor, you read a lot but she is also so passionate about teaching. she wants students to succeed. only issue is she talks a lot - but its entertaining. only homework she gives is reading or sometimes short writing pieces. there are also in class writings - known about in advance.
DO NOT TAKE HER!!! I am a straight A student and this woman would not let me have an A. I attended multiple office hours, attended every class, and did all of her assignments while following her instructions and I would still receive a 3/7 or a 2/5 on all assignments. Absolutely do not take her, she is the reason I do not have a 4.0 anymore.
- Makes you read so much for homework, and you only get through a quarter of what you were supposed to do. - Very hard grader - Has favorites -- doesn't like you, even if you participate. - Gives you back feedback on your in-class writing in handwriting that nobody understands - Very boring classes because she just talks about random information
terrible professor. Will NOT even remotely give deserving credit. She rarely gives above a 75 regardless of if you do what she says. Literally worst professor and shes rude. Quite literally doesn't matter if you participate or not. DO NOT TAKE HER. assignments are such a joke.
Please DO NOT take her for any classes offered. Your gpa will drop SIGNIFICANTLY. Her CIT course has been the hardest course I have ever taken in college, and I currently have a lower grade in this class that any of my science lectures or labs. Reaching out to her about learning how to fix my grade was useless. Please avoid her at all costs.
don't do it
If you want to hate walking up in the morning and having to go to class, take it. She hated me for some reason and was never able to offer me any help. I passed but barely. PLEASE DON'T TAKE HER.
do not take this teacher at any costs.
Class ran like 1930's Germany.
DONT DO IT TO YOURSELF!! Do yoy care about your sanity? If answeared yes than do yourself a favor and dont take this course :) by all means if you want a fat D on your transcript be my guest I think I rather try and conduct surgery on myself then take this class again.
She is genuinely the worst professor I have ever had at this school. She always thinks she's right, and grades so harshly. Everyone needs to take this class, and she makes it so hard to do well. She will not give a grade higher than an 80 even if you do exactly what she asks for. Do anything you can not to take her.
Actually the worst professor I have ever had. Ruined my GPA over a required course and has no care for her students. I did all the work, completed it well and participated multiple times each class and still ended up with a poor grade. She is not worth the trouble and the damage she will do to your transcript. DO NOT TAKE HER!!
This class is not hard by any means. Although she's a harsh grader, she hands out participation points like they're nothing, and in a total point system, those make up for the points you miss out on assignments. Literally raise your hand every class and say legit anything, and you'll be good
Do not take this professor at any cost. She grades everything so harshly, where she would barely give me any feedback on writing assignments then never give me above an 80. I participated multiple times each class and still wouldn't get the correct amount of participation points. Don't take her if you care about your grades
Do not take this class if you're not comfortable participating. She's an EXTREMELY tough grader and also grades very weirdly (out of 3's, 5's, 6's, and 7's). Also, be prepared to spend an entire class analyzing 3 pages of a play or a single poem. I liked her as a person, but I definitely did not enjoy her as a professor.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS! DO NOT TAKE! When I would walk to class I would hope to get hit by a car so I would not have to go. She is genuinely so mean, and an extremely hard grader. I participated every class and still was on the brink of failing a class that is supposed to be an easy A. If you have to take her do yourself a favor and just withdraw.
TERRIBLE PROFESSOR. super harsh grader. literally failed everyone in my class for a midterm essay. completely ruined my gpa. I thought CIT was supposed to be an easy course but this professor made it 10 times worse than it actually is. DO NOT TAKE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You literally can't miss a class or you'll fail. She was really rude a lot of the time, and would insert her own opinions in grading. I would get points off because SHE didn't agree with my opinion. She never graded me based off of my actual writing, I still don't know how I pulled an A, just try to participate a lot to get on her good side.
DO NOT TAKE HER. literally bombed my gpa for a class that is supposed to be easy. you can do everything she asks and still get a bad grade. if you're sick and have a doctors note… don't bother she doesn't care. this is the worst grade i've ever gotten. a cit class. withdrawal of you can.
