Comment:

Professor Flanagan was a pretty chill professor. Even though it was online he always replied quickly on group me. His weekly assignments were a little lengthy sometimes but he was a really easy grader. The mid-term paper was also straightforward. I would def take him again. He's pretty much an easy A. TAKE HIM!!

He is a great prof. He really wants you to do well. There is weekly hw, midterm, and final. It is not too hard since he gives you the old questions to study from for tests. You just have to put time and effort in. His lectures are good too. He uses a lot of videos. Be ready to pay attention and answer questions in class. He randomly calls on you.

Really admired Prof Flanagan. Made course relevant. Students able to get As because every class had clear work to do. Gives reading assignment & videos but don't have to do them all. He's also Catholic priest & able to receive my *weekly* criticism of where the church is wrong & knows little about science & medicine. Great discussions with him.

This guy is truly amazing! Such a caring individual and will never let you leave if you don't understand something. He gives so many options for you to get a good grade. he also gives out money for answering questions. He's super relatable and funny and just an all around great guy. Some discussions, midterm and final all easy cause he goes over it

He makes lectures interesting and loves to joke with his students. Easy to reach him through GroupMe. The group project is to make a 10-12 minute video. He always gives exam questions ahead of time. Create a Google Docs with the class or do them yourself. I memorized the answers and got a 100 every time. Just put in a little work to get that A.

Prof Flanagan has fascinating lectures and wants everyone to enjoy and get the most out of his class. He likes to hear everyone's opinions. HW is reading and then 7 questions, just skim and you're fine, lots of opinion ones. Gives you all the Midterm questions ahead of time, he pretty much reuses the same test each year. Best professor I've had

Such a great and caring professor :) He is so enthusiastic during lectures. Says on the first day of class that attendance isn't mandatory. He also gives you the midterm and final questions beforehand. The only downside of the class is the group project (time-consuming and assigned groups).Easy A. P.S. gives out money for answering questions right

Not easy course. Professor killing my summer vibes giving hw every night. You have to post answers to reading 1 nt and other nt you have to look at classmate posting & answer questions. Didn't too well on first homeworks, but he pushed me and now doing well hopefully to get A :). One good thing is gets back to you on GroupMe in no time.

Decent prof who makes class go by quickly. Have no interest in religion but he actually made it interesting. I just REALLY didn't like the group projects. No need enough work already and every student knows only two or three students do all the work. Get him also to drink water and not Diet Coke.

Professor Flanagan's class is a lot of work, especially if you take it online. However, it is definitely worth while and he is a very generous grader. He is very understanding and you will do well as long as you actually put the effort to compose decent responses. If you are not a lazy student you will do fine in the class.

Took his theology and healthcare ethics class online. read chapters, do the weekly post, 2 papers (one you had to interview people for), 1 poster project, it's a lot of work but you'll end up learning something. Very accessible by groupme and understanding

Flanagan was quite a bit of work (a lengthy group project, midterm, and final), but overall he was a very good professor. He was passionate about what he taught and his lectures were very interesting. I would definitely recommend him!

a lot of work. 2 major group projects, a paper, and midterm and final. it is deff doable tho, stay on top of your group and he gives all q's for midterm and final beforehand. he wants you to do well so if you ask him to look over stuff he will and tell you what to fix. very accessible and an engaging prof

He is an amazing professor maybe the best i have had in my 5 years at st johns, he is passionate about what he teaches so the class isnt ever a bore. the tests arent a surprise he will give you exactly what the questions are before hand. if you atleast skim through the readings and participate in the discussions you should be okay. must take!!

14 Easy Mini Essays (1-1.5 Pg each) (35%), 2 Teacher Evaluations (5%), Group Project (20%). Midterm and Final (20% each). The midterm was 20 short answer questions that he gave you before hand. You are able to work with him to get all the answers before the test. The final was 6 questions with a few sub questions for each questions.

Hands down best professor at STJ. Strongly encourage that you take him. There is a no attendance policy but his class is so great that he makes you want to come. Only downfall is that you have a homework assignment every week but they are extremely easy. Gives you the midterm and final beforehand.

An amazing guy! Gives you the short answer questions before all the exams and posts his previous exams. Homework can be tedious but it's essential to getting an A. He's always a text away if you need anything and he sometimes gives you money for answering a question in class.
