Comment:

Got into a liberal rant about how the president is a disgusting human and how his supporters are idiots. I would prefer a professor who kept that kind of hate to themselves.

Goes off on tangents far too often. Seems like a very unhappy person. Seems like she knows what she's talking about, but I wouldn't recommend her.

Comment:

Dr. Kenney is really nice and at times funny but the class I would say was quite difficult. The lectures were understandable however she only goes over like one problem so you have to do the homework. If you don't do the homework it will be difficult to pass. The tests are hard aside from the lab practical. Good luck is all I have to say.

Comment:

This class was so hard. A lot of studying. She's nice and gives a lot of extra credit opportunities and she allows a cheat sheet for every test and on the final you can use the cheat sheets you used for the previous tests. The final took me 5 and a half hours, and a few people were there for 6. A majority left after 4 and a half - five hours

Comment:

Took Dr. Kenney for Hist of Math. She is very scatterbrained making it difficult to follow or pay attention in class. She wants you to succeed but is not a good teacher in the classroom. If you are a decent at math you can still do well in her class. I elected to drop her class and transfer in an online math course instead

Comment:

Great lady but her random stories are very distracting. Not clear on how to do the exercises. I'm not a strong math student and she just furthered my dislike for the subject. If you are not a strong math student I would avoid.

Comment:

Studying is a must to pass this course, otherwise you'd be lucky to pass with a D-. She allows a one page cheat sheet for the three exams and the final. She knows how to teach, but just goes at a rapid pace, so if you don't understand or get lost, seek assistance ASAP!

Had Dr. Kenney for Calc II. Really nice, alittle crazy, but not a good teacher. Thank God my High School teacher covered most of the information or I would have been lost. For the final- she made her own and it went for 4 and a half hours! I was taking my exam til 11 at night! she let us stay, but it shouldn't have been that hard.

Kenney is awesome, a little crazy but really helpful and wants you to do well. There's tons of extra credit opportunities and it's a really fun class. My favorite class at Siena by far because she's just that great. Also allows cheat sheets!!

makes linear harder than it actually is. Likes to see her students struggle and do poorly on tests, then she knows she's "hard"

Dr. Kenney is an awesome professor! Calc can be hard no matter who you take it with, but Dr. Kenney is always willing to give extra help if you need it. Do the homework because a lot of test questions are taken from the assigned hw book problems.

Calc is hard no matter who you have, but Dr.Kenney makes it fun and is super approachable. DO THE HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS! My grade drastically improved when I started doing the homework. Def. possible to get an A in her class...just do the HW and go to class (even though there's no attendence policy)!!

Dr. Kenney is such a nice lady. We need more professors like her. She really cares a lot about her students and seeing them succeed. She even holds reviews. Also very funny and sometimes a little crazy, but nothing wrong with that! I'd recommend her to anyone. Well done Dr. Kenney! -Gary Gustin Jr.

Amazing teacher... cares so much about her students. I would take her 10 times over if I could. People that don't like her are ones that do bad because they don't pay attention or go to class. I'm not a math person and I got A's
