This professor is a Jesuit who has worked in Peru for many years. Know tons about poverty and is up on all the theories and debates surrounding this issue. If you want to get clear on this subject, take the course. One major position paper at the end. Lots of reading and discussion.

Doctor Hartnett belongs to the philosophy department but he taught this class on liberation theology. It was excellent! Definitely take it if he offers it again. One of the best courses I have ever had at Loyola.

The books for this course are short but difficult. However, the professor's lectures are extremely clarifying. This class helped me sort out several fundamental philosophical issues I had about God and faith.

Comment:

Fr. Hartnett is an extremely interesting, sweet man. However, the semantics for the class are terrible. He does not get any indication of grades to you in a reasonable fashion/time frame, he is unclear about assignments, and he is very forgetful. Great to hear lecture; poor to have for class.

Comment:

The course was team taught, which doesn't always work, but this time it did. Hartnett's classes on theories of poverty provided me with the clarity and insight I needed on this complex topic. The professor made confusing material clear and relevant.

Most boring class I've ever had but also the easiest. He's an awesome prof but not the most interesting lecturer but go to class anyway, otherwise your grade is shot.

Really nice professor. Class can be a little boring at times--it's best if you participate to keep yourself from dozing off. Yet, overall there was some interesting topics we discussed. Easy grader. Very approachable. only a midterm and a final paper

I always wanted to come to class and left with new questions. A teacher I would take again. He is demanding but also caring and fair. Now I have categories to think about key questions. A great course and professor.

Comment:

Soft-spoken, humble, highly intelligent man. You'll read a lot, but you'll also learn a lot. Challenges you to think about religion, faith, and God, & what it all means to you, not only memorization of what others have said on it. Great man and class.

Found the course very helpful and would highly recommend it. The lectures and debates helped me to think about the question of God and faith in totally new way. The professor is well organized. The readings are good, tho challenging.
