Easy and interesting class. Nice old lady

The goofiest teacher I have ever come across but also the brightest. She has great knowledge of her subject and really tries to be helpful and explain materials to us. You will have a good time guaranteed just do your work and study for the Final.

Grat professor, is now my good friend. She really cares about her students, and makes class funny. Just make sure to do your work, and it will be a great experience

She is very clear and writes everything on the board. The test questions come straight from the study guide, which she goes over completely the class b4. One of the better teachers

She's very funny; she makes the class go by rather quickly.

loved her, easy A, exempt from final, actually learned something

She will go out of her way to assist a student....granted she does grade the homeworks tough and expects you understand her perspectives but often if you explain hers and deviate with your own she does not discredit you. She truly cares about her students

you may be tempted to cut her class, but make sure you goto the class before the test. her study guides are amazing, she goes through every question. for the study guide, make sure you copy everything word for word and memorize it.it should be on the test

I actually like her. Shes very helpful and reviews for everything. I was absent for a test and oral and she gave me a make-up. I was in her honors class and she was really nice,though weird. However, even though she reviews tests exactly, its hard to get higher than a 95.

i think that she's a wonderful professor...she's the best...she's gives advice and her exams is directly from her lectures. If you read over the study guide and know the questions.u'll definitely get an A.I enjoy her lectures and she's very friendly and easy to talk to

She is the best teacher ever. She gives great examples and finds ways to make all students understand even the hardest areas. she is amazing! her tests may seem hard but she reviews every single question so just study those. she's trully a GREAT TEACHER!

I've never before taken philosophy and its so much fun. She uses such vivid examples. Her course isnt hard as long as u study her handouts and questions. She's easy to talk to if you have a problem. If you dont like Philosophy, dont blame your poor grade on her teaching. She is a great teacher, though a little weird. But all philosophers are,right?

Great teacher! She actually teaches, gives all answers to exam all you have to do is understand and memorize. I got exempt from the final exam for doing good on the tests. She is very just, clear, and listens to what you have to say. Alot of interesting class discussions, gives great examples for ideas makes it very easy to understand. Take her!

Science and Religion:I loved her class. Lectures are thought inspiring and thorough. Slight bias towards Catholic thinking, yet will prove wrongful thinking on both sides of the issue (thus allowing personal analysis on topics). Gives exam questions ahead of time, & no textbooks to buy!!! Encourages questions and personal input. A must take!

shes an amzing professor. the class is very easy its an easy A. I dont understand how people think her exams are difficultv when she gives you all the answers before the test! definitely take her if you can

Very hard, if you don't have to take her, don't! The term paper is really hard, you'll be working on it for a long time if you want an A! She gives you questions before the tests, but make sure on the test you write exactly what she said, otherwise she'll mark you wrong and she is really taking points of very easy!!

I DONT KNOW Y PPL SAY THAT SHE IS A BAD PROFESSOR AND TO AVOID HER. SHE IS EASY EXCEPT FOR THE 1 TERM PAPER SHE WILL GIVE U WHICH U DO HAVE TO WORK HARD ON. SHE IS FUNNY AT TIMES AND SHE GIVES YOU THE ANSWER FOR THE TEST THROUGH HER STUDY GUIDES ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS STUDY THEM WORD FOR WORD AND SHE REALLY DOESNT GIVE THAT MUCH HOMEWORK. TAKE HER.

Don't be scared to take her. I got an A in informal logic last semester, and all i needed to do was stay on top of my homework. My advice, if you need to hone up on your logical reasoning skills, here is the place to achieve that end. This is a must for LSAT takers. This class easily put me over the 160 mark. She is extremely fair and intelligent.

Although the class could be boring at times, it was easy. She gives you the study guide a week before the test. Memorize it word for word and you'll get an easy A. The term paper is only worth 5% of the grade!

First you should be grateful that u dont need a book for this class. all you need to do is print her notes that she emails to you on the first day. her accent and enthusiam for the subject kept me intrested. she is easy going all you need to do is pay attention and the term paper isnt that hard. do well on the test and it wont count so much

She is not easy at all but you can learn a lot of things. Two mid-terms and a final. You should memorize word by word everything from the revision which she had given you the class before and I was really good on the exams, but the term paper is a freaking joke. In my opinion no way to manage to do it for more than B. My was graded with C-.

informal logic. she is a nerd who wants her students to be nerds too. hard grader. follow her outline. do all hw. take exact notes. memorize it on tests. don't say dumb things. come to class EVERY day.

She is a women who gives great insight into the world of philosophy. Her accent and her examples keep you intrigued. She gets the class involved. As far as homework, we only had about 5-6 assignments. The term paper is very difficult but it's not a major part of the grade. There are three tests. Study very hard!! They make up most of the grade.

i really have to disagree with the people below me, i mean shes not the greatest teacher but as being in her class right now, i really find her interesting, i have a B+ in the class right now, id say its worth taking if you are ready to listen and take notes.. her tests are identical to the study guides she emails ..10 pg paper, 2 tests and final..

Not nearly as bad as you might think at first. I thought I was going to do terrible but I didn't. She is extremely helpful. Deadlines are very flexible and test questions and answers are given word for word ahead of time. Just put in effort, show you're trying, and you'll do well.

She gives about 5 hw assignments in total on readings. She gives you the answers to 20 questions on the test and chooses 10 out of the 20. Even though she gives you the answers, there is still a lot to study and memorize. The hardest part about her class is the essay. It's so hard that she weights it a full letter grade. Ex. D equals C

Dr George is brilliant and her informal logic class was the best I ever took at SJU. Yeah, she is tough. But what do you expect? It's college, sometimes you have to put a lil effort. Take her if you can, she will change your life if you let her!

Logic was amazing with her. She makes you think critically, and work to understand concepts. She is fun to have lecture and is very open about classroom dialogue. Her tests can be rough, but she's there to help you. She's crazy and a conservative Catholic, who is clearly a hippy - I LOVED HER. Amazing Professor hands down!

I had her this semester and she honestly is a good teacher. You learn a lot and as long as you study, it's an easy A. She warns you that if you don't study you'll fail. SHE GIVES YOU THE ANSWERS FOR THE TEST! Just memorize what she gives you and you'll do fine. She also gives extra credit just in case. Very good class, DEFINITELY TAKE!

I enjoyed her class alot, yeah the tests are rough because it requires alot of memorization, but all the answers are in the notes and she does a pretty great review prior to the tests which she pretty much tells us the answers. Cool Accent, Cool personality shes like a hippy, generally a fun class

great professor. she writes everything out on the board. gives really good examples that help you understand. tests are the same as the study guide. just memorize the answers and youll get an A. If i could, i would take her over and over.

she's a great teacher. Honestly if you do all the works she gives out, then the tests are pretty much off the review sheet that she gives out before the exam and stuff. she is very clear, sometimes hard but it is worth taking her. it is not as easy as other classes but it is not hard to get an A if you try hard.

She's interesting and smart. Her examples make her points clear and they really help with the tests. The tests are pretty straight forward. Some questions do require a little logic, but it's a philosophy class, what do you expect? Just take notes, attend class, answer the review questions and study. It's not nearly as bad as everyone claims.

Guys. There's 3 tests, and you literally get ALL the questions and answers before hand. If you suck at being a student and don't actually care about philosophy/learning (which she actually makes interesting), all you have to do is go to class when she does reviews for the tests, do the FIVE homeworks she gives you, and you'll get an A. E-Z.

Marie George is an amazing professor!! Thought provoking, genuine and interesting to listen to and to speak with. The class was small and every day it felt more and more personal. She really wants students to understand the material and do well and most of all, think for themselves. I adore her.

I've got to say that while my ratings aren't the best, i did love class with professor George. Shes not always clear and its difficult because its a lot of material that isn't easy. However, she gives intensive notes so as long as your in class and take her notes you'll do fine. She gives out a study guide of questions that she picks for the exam.

Marie George is an AMAZING and INSPIRING professor. I never though philosophy could make so much sense to me. She breaks everything down and spoon feeds you the answers. Memorizing is not such a big deal. YOU ALREADY HAVE THE ANSWERS, JUST WRITE THEM ON THE EXAM. Take this professor she is awesome!

As long as you take down all her notes and memorize the answers to the test she gives you should be fine! She gives out a study guide where you can find answers word for word. Also gives out extra cred and bonus points if you are in class and answer a question or two

Just pay attention and take notes. Test questions are given on the study guide. She's very understanding if you need extra credit.

Professor George s a pretty intellectual and inspiring professor that I have met so faR. However, she is not an easy A! Dont come into this class thinking you'll pass her exam questions because they're like 5 parts for each in paragraph form. If you want to think outside the box TAKE HER! Also participation= EXTRA POINTS ON EXAMS!!

Don't know why she's so poorly rated. But she's a good prof. write down everything she writes on the board and you'll pass. She a lot of extra credit opportunities as well, so take advantage. There's 1 in class test. And the 2nd exam and the final consist of 3 2pg. papers. The only annoying thing is the readings, but thats it. It's a good class.

What an amazing teacher! She made class extremely interesting. Tests are easy because of in depth reviews. Very understanding woman. Not a harsh grader, just do what she asks. Great professor! BTW she gives opportunities for so much extra credit and the extra credit opportunities can lead to you getting +10 on your last exam (only 2 exams a year)

I took Dr. George for an online course Philosophy of Science and Religion. Material was one of the hardest out of all philosophy courses I took. Dr. George was accessible in her office hours and helped me to understand it better. Important factor to do well in her class was to keep with readings and all assignments in timely manner. Great teacher!

She's honestly really good! Her class is mostly lecture and as long as you take notes you're fine. Lectures are generally entertaining. She only gives couple homework assignments, a paper, two tests, and a presentation all semester. She also gives you a TON of opportunities for extra credit. Also she's chill and really cares about her students

Not sure why Marie has such bad ratings. Although her tests were difficult she gives opportunities to get 10 extra points added to each test grade. I received 70's on all 3 of her exams and was still able to get an A- with the extra credit. If she see's you put forth an effort you will see that reflected in your grades.

She is an amazing professor. Take her class and you won't regret it. The material that she teaches is interesting and she makes the class very easy and very fun. She offers various extra credit opportunities and she was a very understanding woman with grading. Just participate and do your work on time!!!

Dr. George was a pleasure, even in an online class. The weekly discussions aren't too cumbersome along with the once in a while reading assignments. I had a difficult situation that resulted in missing out on assignments. She provided extra credit and helped me get back on my feet in her class. COMMUNICATE WITH HER (phone, email) and you'll do fine

She's strict but you will get the grade you want if you put in the work. There are three homework assignments, one paper, two exams, and an oral presentation which are not difficult if you communicate and go to her for help duiring office hours. For the exams, she reviews all the answers beforehand and there's even a lot of extra credit.

Professor George is amazing; I had her for Hon 1010. She had 2 test a midterm and a final, a news presentation, an essay on the use of electronic devices on philosophy, and a few homework assignments. She is very lecture heavy but writes everything on the board. She gives up to 30 points extra credit and if your struggling, then email or see her.

Professor George is a REALLY talented and kind professor! Sure, her grading criteria might be a little harsh, but if you go to her office hours and ask for help, she is more than ready to assist you. Her lectures were always interesting, especially, since she actually writes the notes out on the board and gives examples to support her lessons.

LOVE Professor George! I don't understand why she has a 2.8 rating. She may be really specific with her test questions, but she gives study sheets with similar questions and even does a review before the test. Also, she is always ready to help you if you go to her during office hours. She even gives lots of extra credit opportunities!

Professor George was an awesome teacher. She gives you all of the questions as the review for the test and tells you the answer. Theres opportunity for extra credit and only three homework assignments. Cant understand why she has a 2.8

Professor George is a GREAT professor. You need to study and put in the work to do well in her class, but there are no surprises and she gives a list of possible test questions before all exams. She also gives out a lot of extra credit opportunities. I was always engaged in her class & she inspired me to apply myself.

I highly recommend taking Prof George for ethics. She focuses this class on self-improvement and defining your own moral code vs memorizing material and testing. Discussion was awesome and she encourages differing opinions.

A tough class, but if you work hard and put in effort, you will get a pretty decent grade. The lectures get confusing sometimes but the professor is kinda nice. If you need her to look over your work she will look it over and if you have questions you can ask. But, this class is not easy at all.

Lectures are very interesting. If you stay engaged, participate, and take plenty of notes during class, you should have no problem. Professor George is very clear on assignments/exams and offers a lot of extra credit. If you have a question you can email the professor and she will respond as soon as possible.

Prof George is one of the most open ended classes I have taken. She is professional, her grading criteria is superb, and her ability to teach the class in a Socratic style is great. I took her and got an A. All you must do is study, and ask questions. She has open office hours, and provides a loathsome of extra credit.

If you want an easy A don't take her. You actually have to do the work. Her tests were kinda hard but she gave plenty of extra credit opportunities to make up for it. I got a 70 on the first test and still got an A bc of extra credit. If you actually pay attention she's a great professor and has really interesting lectures.I took her for Ethics too

Although Professor George is very tough on her students, very clear on what she wants and what she expects. You must be ready to actively participate in class discussion and take notes. Test heavy but you will know exactly what will be asked on the exam so study and you will do well. Great teacher but she is strict with the students.

Professor George was honestly a great professor. Yes, there was a lot of work to do and a lot of memorization for tests, but she does her best to help you. She responds to emails fast and answers any questions you may have. If you do what she says and do the extra credit she offers, you should be good.

A respected, knowledgeable professor. If you pay attention, you will get an A. Her lectures are interesting. Not too much homework. Three tests- be sure to attend the reviews because she answers the questions there!

Very straightforward. 3 tests very easy. She has test reviews which significantly help for the test. Not a lot of homework. Gives a lot of extra credit. Ignore the bad reviews she's amazing

I took her for Informal Logic. She is tough and evokes competetiveness, but she is fair. Regrettably, I'm not doing too well, as I haven't keep good pace with the material. Attend every class, do the homework, and SELF-STUDY + PRACTICE with the textbook. The knowledge from this class is IMMENSELY valuable. Please don't make the same mistakes as I.

Lecture heavy but everything is put in simple terms. Overall, very easy course, you just have to put some work in. Attend the review for the exam- she literally goes over the answers. A lot of extra credit opportunities. Just do not go on your phone in class.

Professor George's class is lecture-heavy, but she explains things clearly. While challenging, the tests are very straightforward if you attend the review sessions and use resources like Unstuck study. Avoid phones in class, and you'll likely get a good grade.

The discussion posts are 60% of your grade, and you have to do 4 per week to get credit, but you can do more to ensure you get 100 in case anything was wrong. The class wasn't hard, but it was a lot of work, and you had to be on top of everything.
