Comment:
Probably the most overrated prof at York. I had her for Process and Practice 2009-2010, and she treats her lectures as if they were her own personal stand-up comedy show about how dumb Americans are and how much she hates her ex-husband. Her level of professionalism (and the amount of students guffawing) was disgusting.

She is amazing. Her lectures are thorough and interesting and always kept me attentive. The TA I had was excellent, too. I learned more from this writing course than I did in all my years of high school. She is one of the best profs at York, hands down.

This class really gets you to think. Rehner is incredible at providing new perspectives and getting you to write out your thoughts in a way that makes you feel your brain flex. The material is interesting, relevant and indulgent in the best way modern society can be.

Jan is a great educator and an even better human being. She genuinely cares about her job and her students. She encourages her students to think critically about their surroundings, and by doing so she provides the tools that insightful well-rounded writers need. A true gem of a Prof

Comment:
Unfortunately, this class is completely mislabeled. While its description calls it 'Professional Writing', it really should be 'Cultural Analysis' class. Rehner's ideologies completely hijack the class away from its intended purpose. There is little development of writing styles and creativity. If you are hoping to learn how to write, avoid it!

Her lectures were phenomenal: gave students something to think about outside of the classroom. Made it clear why we should care about the content and how we can apply it to our own lives. Amazing in tutorial. Always lends a kind ear to whatever we thought or felt. Encouraged intimate, personal conversation. Not much feedback on assignments, though.

Jan is the best prof I had this year (first). She is very approachable, clear, organized and brilliant! I actually learned because of her...go figure eh? I didnt just memorize material..I LEARNED many things. She's not only a very talented prof, but also just a great lady.

Best lecturer involved in the class. So clear, to-the-point, doesn't ramble, go too fast or too slow, and makes sure you know exactly what's important. Pretty great lady from what I can see.

Good clarity, smart...but something is missing. Perhaps it is not the lecturer but the material covered in 1980. I felt like the course focused too much on things Other than writing. It seemed more like a Politics class at times than a writing one.

Fun. Honest. Helpful. In all fairness, this is still a new course (only in its 2nd full year), so there are a few bugs. But, overall, this is an excellent course and well taught. Jan's classes and Prof. Haberman's are the best of the bunch.
