Comment:

Kirmani is a sweet lady and it's obvious that she cares about her students, but she is extremely unorganized and unclear about how she wants things done. She doesn't update Blackboard until the end of the semester. There aren't any tests or quizzes, but there is a 4 page single spaced paper due at the end of the semester. I wouldn't take her again.

Comment:

Kirmani is respected within her department but shes one of the worst professors ive had. Shes really sweet and nice but clueless when it comes to teaching. She has no idea when assignments are due and she grades super hard for no reason. The whole class is out of 100 points so its almost impossible to get an A with how hard she grades. Avoid

Comment:

I have never thought a professor could be so unorganized. Less than half way through the semester she started to ask us when things were due because she forgot, and every class was all over the place. Everyone in class counts on each other to understand what is going on and at this point nobody cares or wants to be there. Worst professor I've had.

Comment:

This was the worst experience I have ever had with a professor. As the term progressed instructions on projects and assignments became less and less clear. No one in class knew what was going on, and we depended on each other for help. She graded the entire term out of 100 so one 7/10 on a project basically means you cannot get higher than a B.

Comment:

It was an easy class but the whole class was out of 100 points and all assignments were only 10 or 20 points, so 2 points off is an automatic B. She is unclear will all assignments and NEVER used blackboard. Made us print and bring in paper rubrics for her to grade.. waste of paper and time. Worked hard and did every assignment to only get a B

Comment:

About 7 graded assignments throughout the semester, including a paper at the end. Dr. Kirmani is one of the kindest, sweetest people I've ever met. She's super soft-spoken and caring. She can sometimes be a little unclear on due dates, but it was never a big deal for me. If you need a Core 13 class or an elective, you should consider taking this.

Comment:

Wow her class blew me away. Yes you have to read and be consistent with the two texts like any other class, but the activities and videos were such an eye opener. Her heart is so beautiful and she hopes t share her experiences with her students rather than making class just a grade. She wants to know her students and help expand their perspective

Comment:

She is the sweetest lady you'll meet, she's got a big heart and emphasizes a lot on respect and acceptance on differences. Although she has two main texts that are really hard to read, it's mostly just reflective. do not wait last minute to do them! They are long! presentations are mostly the heart of the class so it's not too hard, just long

Professor Kirmani is very worldly. She is knowledgeable and gives lectures about her real life experiences relating to diversity. Her projects are not hard but they take a little bit of effort. She lets you choose your own participation grade on the last day of class, so you can give yourself an A. I would take her again.

Comment:

The class is project based, no tests, so her lectures are pointless (but meaningful). She was never organized, never knew when things were due, and was not clear about how assignments would be graded. There's a lot of reading and journaling but if you don't procrastinate that's easy. The class was easy, but she was terrible.

Comment:

Though she's nice, she's super vague and you'll never know exactly what she expects of you. You'll have two texts to read and you'll have to write journal entries on each chapter for both. Lectures are disjointed and hard to follow, she gets off track easily, but not in the fun way. No tests though.

Comment:

She is very nice but terribly confusing. Her assignments are pointless and you never know what she wants from you. She will tell you to check the syllabus gives you absolutely no idea what she expects. Even the rubrics are vague. The class is easy and there are no tests but it's annoying how unorganized she is.

She is a really sweet lady but her class was kind of pointless. I would still recommend her cause its an easy credit. Shes really unclear about what she wants its hard to get full credit cause she takes points off for who knows what.

Comment:

Do not take Kirmani. The class is pretty easy but there is a lot of really stupid, time consuming assignments. She reads directly from the powerpoints which normally I do not mind, but I literally cannot stand going to her class. Do not take her.
