Comment:
It is unbelievable to me that this woman is a professor at JCU. I have never been in a class where a professor actually rolls her eyes at students and tells them their opinion is wrong until I had a class with Dr. McGinn. Not only does she discourage students while participating in class, but she also rips students' work apart. Do NOT take her.

Comment:
The absolute worse teacher ever. Religion is not suppose to be difficult to understand, but this woman makes it impossible. She talks about absolutely nonsense and expects you to come to class. She talks way past the end of the class time yet doesn't allow us to get up. I love my school, but this teach has absolutely ruined the experience. avoid!!!

She gives significantly more work than the other religion professors. The class is very unpleasant and has a miserable atmosphere. Avoid.

Not the devil these comments make her out to be... She is strict and expects a very professionally prepared student. If you aren't going to be serious about her classes, take it with somebody else. If you are serious, you'll do fine and maybe eve enjoy her dry humor.

Comment:
The worst teacher I have had at Carroll thus far. Class time is poorly managed often filled with useless information Never used the textbook she made us buy. There are huge projects and mandatory out of class activities that take up way too much time. Oh.. and the tests are border-line impossible. Avoid this teacher at all costs.

It is useless to attend her classes; you do not learn anything, you get points off for not attending the classes, do pointless reflection essays, and she is overall just the DEVIL!

Comment:
Going on I wasn't too worried, a teacher actually reccomended her. However, upon entering her class I dscovered that the woman can not articulate an assignment. I go into the work with no idea what she wants us to do. Not to mention the times she cites instructions she never gave when berating us for our poor work. Please don't take her

Comment:
Shelia McGinn is definitely a candidate for one of the worst professors at John Carroll. You should not even bother with this class unless you want her workload to take up all of your time. She assigns about 9 projects, 5 essays, and many online quizzes. Dont forget about the midterm and final exams. I have NOT learned anything in her class

Comment:
Dr. McGinn expects her students to dress in a manner befitting a college environment, where the appropriateness of attire will be judged by her. I recommend that only the most devoted students, those passionate about religion, enroll!(satire)

Comment:
Dr. McGinn is not a good professor, and I recommend that anyone trying to take RL 101 to choose someone else. She expects you to know a lot about religion prior to taking the class. Her assignments are very unclear and the amount of work she expects a week is a lot. If you don't want to do service every week don't take her.

Comment:
the worst professor ever to walk the face of the earth. she is a demon. and i agree with everyone else, jesus would definitely not pass this class. she should not still be teaching if everyone is so unhappy with her. if you know what is good for you and you want to live a stress free life, you will not take this class.

Comment:
I dont think Jesus Christ himself would pass one of her religion classes. Basically her tests are extremely long and difficult, her homework essays are impossible, and she has a dress code for her class. all she does all class is have conversations with the smart kids while everyone else sits in confusion

this woman is THE worst teacher i have EVER had. she is super rude and does not even know how to grade papers correctly. EVERYONE ON HERE IS RIGHT, BOYCOTT HER CLASSES IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE PART OF THE THIRD REICH. she rules like a dictator and her nicknames include: My Fuherer, Stupid Stalin, and Mean Mussolini.

This teacher is AWFUL. Do Not take her class! Material is way too hard for a 101 level class. I left her class in tears multiple times!! I have never gotten a C before, until this class (not sure how I even pulled a C off)She will meet with you outside of class, but this didn't even help me! AVOID HER!
