If you're taking a lower level class, she will put minimum effort into providing a quality experience. She uses an autograder for the essays, and it doesn't feel like she actually reads the content of the essay. As such, there is no room for obtaining quality feedback that you couldn't get from reading a textbook on MLA formatting.

I absolutely loved Nancy. She's probably the best professor I've had.

This was my capstone course and I was so thrilled to end my BA journey with Professor Wack. She is just awesome and I have had her in the past. Great teacher, cares, and was such an inspiration to me.

Just finished PHIL101. I took the course as an elective as I am not a philosophy major. I was very apprehensive as I did not know anything about philosophy. Dr. Wack made the course enjoyable and provided great guidance when needed. I ended up really liking the class.

Do the work and make sure you cite . She's not a difficult grader and enjoys the diversity and different opinions we all have to offer. There is no right answer for the forum and responses she just likes to see everyone's point of views. Great teacher. 3 papers but nothing too complex I turned in something late or would have gotten an A

I took Professor Wack for World Religions and I'm glad I did. The course was great and I learned so much I did not know. The Professor was always present in the course and very helpful if I struggled with an assignment.

This was one of my first courses back in college. Dr Wack made this course enjoyable but through her timely thorough feedback i was able to expand my knowledge on philosophy. Dr wack is one of the best instructors that i have had the pleasure of experiencing. As long as you put forth the effort this professor will reflect your grade as such.

This class was the second I took with this professor and she is absolutely fantastic! Her guidelines are pretty straightforward forward and the grading is consistent with the rubrics given. She is very communicative within the class for the weekly forums, and she gives thorough feedback for grades given. Overall excellent professor!

Proffessor.Wack is an angel of earth and her feedback each week isn't only great and helpful but shows she really reads what you write. Assignments are clear and easy to do and forums are mostly opinion based and easy to complete. Fair grader and grades assignments immediately. I'd take her class 10 times if I could.

Awesome professor! Had her for PHIL200. She was engaged in the course, fast grading, and very helpful. Any low rating her is because the classmate(s) most likely did not do their work or wanted to redo it. That would not be fair to other people in the class. She worked with me when I had an emergency come up. I had no issues.

Honestly, this professor was difficult to work with. Her styles changed throughout the course. I would finish and assignment, receive a grade, then the next day she would mark it as zero saying I had to do something. The directions were never clear when doing so and I constantly had to email her back and forth to figure out what was going on.

She was difficult to work with. When I asked to speak with her, she told me that she could tell me everything in an email and refused. Would give feedback that was not clear. Then waited until the Friday of week 7 to let me know there was a problem and that I was failing. I don't recommend here to anyone!!

I had her for PHIL200 and is hands down the best professor I have had to date. She is caring and her grading is clear from the beginning. If I could have her teach the rest of my classes for college I would. Just put some effort in and she will put forth an effort into your grade. She grades your work within a day no matter the assignment!

Professor Nancy was kind, supportive, and very flexible. I had her in the fall of 2023. Finally catching up with leaving remarks for my teachers. You can tell by her overall score how good she is within her role. I have found those that say mean things don't bother with the course until it is too late and blame the teacher.

RELS 250 Anniversary of my mother's death, the class was on Death and Dying. She showed knowledge and compassion, and empathy with her feedback on how my sister and I both coped with the loss in different ways. Quick to grade with clear follow-up to improve, and what was good. She made a hard topic to take and turned it into healing. Excellent!
