His course is amazing. He teaches you alot about death and dying. He is very understanding and all he asks is for you to read and write up a few papers that aren't even that long. He is a good professor, definitely take him.

He is the best professor on earth. If you have problem getting the text book, he gives you his copy. He makes you feel, know, and understand life. If you want to experience the true meaning of life then take Father Mckenna. He is the best!!!

Great man. Class was interesting, although very sad. His personal feelings and input about his own life experiences made me really take in the material. Easy grader, loves to hear everyones feelings on the material. Makes everyone feel comfortable and cares about his students.If you dont take his class youre missing out on the vinectian part of sju

Fr. McKenna is a wonderful man and priest. He loves what he teaches and always adds personal feelings to the material so it makes it easier to understand it. He gives either 2 papers or service learning. I did the papers b/c I did not have the time to do the service learning. He gives a midterm and final write down what he says its on the test

Very nice man. Really tries to help the students. Choose the service learning because it really beats sitting around reading 2 books. Go to class, listen and A for sure

Such a nice man!! Go to class and take notes on everything he says (it'll show up on the midterm & final). Option of 2 book reports or service learning. Books are a bit long and can be dry, but he's a relatively lenient grader. No textbook, a few hw assignments, likes group discussions (real easy).

Father McKenna is such a sweet man. His class is very interesting, and pretty easy as long as you do the assignments and take good notes. It's required to either do two book reviews or service learning. Really great class and great professor.

Comment:

Quite possibly one of the nicest men on the planet. He knows everybody's name but the 3rd class. His tests are middle of the road and some ?s are based on his opinions. He has a service learning/book report requirement which was easy and a couple of reflection papers (1-2 page & easy). The only thing is, his notes can be unclear but u should b fine

He's very nice and helpful. He is a very caring person and he tries to help you in every way he can. Class is pretty easy, not too many assignments- a midterm and a final. You have to choose between service learning and two book reviews. Overall, a good class. Can easily get an A if you show up for class and do the assignments.

He is cool! He memorizes your name and honestly does not give out much work. He doesn't force people to participate either. Take hime because comparing to the other Theology professors at SJU, he is the best.

Father McKenna is a great professor, and an even better person. The class itself was interesting and enjoyable, with exams based off his notes. Two book reports on short books or a service learning option. He makes everybody feel comfortable. He really cares for his students.
