Comment:

Dr. Nash is one of the best religion teachers at Mercer. His class is straight forward and there is a "surprise" quiz every week over the reading from the previous night. His tests aren't bad at all if you study and his study sessions he holds are the BEST. He gives you exactly what you need to know.

Comment:

I had Dr. Nash for Intro to the New Testament. He gives you a syllabus at the beginning of the semester and sticks to it all year. There is lots of reading required, but you don't necessarily have to do all of it to get a good grade. I did most of the readings or at least skimmed, but I know plenty of people who didn't do any and did well.

Comment:

Dr. Nash was a decent professor. I learned a lot about religion & the Middle East, but his expectations are a little high. A 93 is an A, & you HAVE to complete all but 4 peer review/discussion assignments to receive credit. He can be a tough grader, & expects you to be knowledgeable. Be prepared to do lots of reading & you must lead one class.

Comment:

At the start he showed what was planned out for the entire semester. Always do the reading, because there can potentially be a pop quiz on it for whenever it's due. He tells you exactly what to expect on his tests, so make sure you pay attention in class, take notes, do the readings, and go to the study session.

Nash's is the man! Really chill and he's a great man to know! Make sure you read for quizzes he drops the lowest so get 10 good ones and then you don't have to worry after that. Test are easy if you use the study guide he gives you and MAKE SURE YOU GO TO THE STUDY GUIDE SESSION HE PROVIDES. Make sure you attend every class too!

Great professor. A lot of reading, but gives a lot of quizzes and drops the low grades. If you pay attention, it's an easy A and class is actually interesting. He is a cool guy.

Highly recommend him. Gives study guides and session before each test, including final. Gives 2 or more weeks in-between 1.5 pg essays. Never gives quizzes on Mondays. Just do assigned reading and you'll make an A. offers alot of extra credit

Nash is pretty easy if you do the readings and take notes. He has pop quizzes though he usually hints when he is going to have one. He is very knowledgeble about the course. I am in New testament. his tests are pretty difficult but make sure you study way ahead of time and he gives study guides. He gives extra credit chances.

Dr. Nash is an amazing teacher. His lectures are interesting and not slanderous to the christian faith. He is a preacher himself and believes in what he teaches. If you read your stuff you will do fine. He is very knowledgeable.

Really great teacher, very nice.... Watch out for the quizzes--make sure you read or at least know how to wing it; he may use info from the reading or the notes on quizzes, so review both before class.

Excellent professor. Has written books pertinent to what is taught by the New Testament. Holds review sessions before every test and the final exam. 75 percent of the class is reading. 25 percent is writing and coming to class sessions. Understand this and you will do well.

Dr. Nash is a brilliant professor and really cares about his students. He holds review sessions before each test. If you pay attention in class, do the study guide, and attend the review session then you are pretty much guaranteed to make A's on his tests. He makes the class interesting. I will definitely take him if I take my next CHR class!

Comment:

Dr. Nash is a nothing short of a scholar when it comes to teaching Old Testament. His class is very interesting because he accepts and is willing to answer the questions of his students about anything related to the material. If you have a concern, he will discuss it in class. He even holds study sessions prior to tests. Read and go to class.

Dr. Nash is a good teacher and seems to know a lot about what he's talking about. Very good at involving the class in discussions. Kept me awake during my usual post-lunch hour of extreme sleepiness.
