Comment:

Excellent professor. He's funny and gives a good perspective on Catholicism. Four papers, one presentation, and a curved midterm. Re-writes are allowed on all but the final paper. I would highly recommend taking the course if you enjoy writing/learning about Catholicism.

Comment:

Very wise, and very funny. Makes me want to learn more about life from him. Really cares about what he teaches and not only wants his students to learn, but still make a great grade. Had 3 1,000 word papers and a 2,000 word paper that came with a 5 minute presentation. Really recommend him for an interesting Exit Req.

This was a very good class that I recomend to every one! Dr. Krizek is a great teacher. There are three papers for this class and no exams, so if you're a great writer, attend class and you'll be set. even if you're an ok writer, this is still a good class for you.

Comment:

Krizek is a good professor overall. Funny. Interesting. However, do the papers the Gordon Rule way, or you won't pass. A little intimidating at times too, so don't expect him to be sympathetic if you mess up. He also asks hard questions and calls on random people to answer them, but it's cool, he doesn't expect you to know the right answer.

Good teacher, easy class. All you do is watch movies. NO EXAMS! That was amazing. There were three papers, pretty easy. I pulled an A with just minimal effort and going to class.

Comment:

While there are no exams, this is both good and bad because papers count very heavily towards grade. Attendance mandatory or he will fail you. Very hard grader on papers, gave me a D on one. He asks for your opinion but when you dare to disagree with him you get slammed on your paper grade! Better hope he likes you!

Comment:

Comes off mean, but he's nice. If you send him an e-mail, be prepared for him to make you sound dumb! You watch movies and write papers, and listen to him talk about religion, and sometimes sport. Pick a creative topic for the last paper and he will give you a good grade. Fun class, but just very long sometimes.

He is a good teacher. Class was 3 hours long, but it did not seem like it. He takes attendance two times each class. There are only 4 papers and they are not hard at all. And the best of all there are no tests!

Dr. K is a very interesting guy. He's very intelligent and his class is great. Movies every class day and only 3 papers all year. Ties in religious facts into the sport movies that are very interesting. Makes class fun. Attendence every time. Highly Recommend!

He condescends to you often, but he grades fairly easy. So, the class was worth it. Plus there are no tests
