Comment:

Dr. Petriano is one of the most inspiring and caring professors who I had at St. Joseph's. The assignments he gave were not too difficult and all the notes, readings, etc. were presented in a clear way. He also provided constructive feedback for all assignments. I learned a lot from Dr. Pretriano and I am very thankful that I was a student of his.

Professor Petriano is one of my favorite professors, I've taken two classes with him. He is a very thoughtful and insightful man that has come to inspire me in many ways. He is an extremely kind and helpful person as well. In terms of class material nothing is too hard but it can be a little tedious, but he is also a great lecturer.

Such a genuine and great guy! No homework- just 2 tests (midterm + final) which he gives review sheet for. Textbooks will be used so make sure to get them! all the work is due at the end of the semester (2 papers and a weekly meditation chart) and put into a portfolio! super easy class and isn't super strict on attendance

Great teacher, relates topics to students. You write a lot of papers but he gives awesome feedback. There is a lot of reading in this class, so if you don't like reading i wouldn't take it.

Comment:

Professor Petriano is the most sincere person who truly wants to see his student succeed academically. He is very understanding that many students have other courses and jobs outside of his classroom but he still assigns sufficient work. He encourages everyone to let their voice be heard in the class room. Would strongly recommend to anyone!

Professor Petriano is one of the best professors I've had. As a nursing major we have to take this class, and I can honestly say I found it interesting and thought provoking. He truly cares about his students, and you can tell he loves what he does. There are 3 film paper, a midterm, book analysis, and a final exam. I very much enjoyed this class.

Great guy. Very nice and fun teacher. There is a decent amount of papers but they aren't hard. You will have to read a book for your signature assignment. The test multiple choice are the same as in the text book. He likes to get everyone involved and is very passionate about what he does.

He is such an inspirational professor and his teaching style is amazing. We've had classes where he starts a topic and then just lets us talk for almost two hours and I'v learned so much more than if I spent two hours having someone talking at me. Has general interest in the subjects he teaches and is an overall happy and friendly person.
