Comment:

Kari tries to cultivate a "free" air in the classroom, but by the end of the class. she basically admitted how the whole class was uninteresting even to her. Also made grading errors as well.

Comment:

Kari is just a terrible teacher. She can't lead a discussion to save her life. She has a very informal approach that some might like, but I couldn't stand it. If you want any level of sophistication as you analyze a text, don't take classes with her.

Kari knows her stuff and cares about her students . . . though she won't baby you if you don't do your work or get your ass to class. Those are your responsibilies, not hers.

Comment:

I did not take a Kari class until my last semester at Earlham. I skipped all her Early English literature courses and then when she taught one on Cities and Literature: London I could not refuse. It was worth it!

ive never had kari i just dislike her profoundly. she is an unsympathetic hardass of an advisor. i can only imagine her classes. but then again, i do have a horrible problem with deadlines...
