Comment:

SUPER nice lady! She is flexible on a lot of deadlines, which is cool, but I tend to procrastinate when things are very laid back. Point being you will have to push and motivate yourself in this class, which is good! She gives a ton of extra credit opportunities, and more than 1 attempt on the tests. Take her class! She's a gem.

Professor Kingsnorth is very nice however she is not a very good teacher. Her tests aren't too bad she provides you with the list of prompts before hand but she will cut out a few or even a whole section of them. She's really not a good teacher her voice and lectures still leave me wanting to bang my head against a wall. Easiest A ever though.

If you need to take a Humanities 330 course, please take her. This class is the easiest class i have ever taken. She's very kind and mumbles a lot. Definitely would take her again. She really cares about her students.

Comment:

Unconventional teaching methods which is a good challenge. May mumble off during lectures, but other than that she knows her stuff and loves anthro. Willing to accommodate and clarify questions if needed. Not a fan of electronics or leaving mid-class. If you catch on quick, you'll know there's a method to her madness. Great lectures.

easy A! she's quite kind and a super easy grader, she tends to ramble however and can make the lectures pretty confusing sometimes. it's ok to not show up sometimes, however you might miss some in-class quizzes. overall, a really easy class.

Comment:

Professor Kingsnorth is an amazing human being. If you're looking for an easy A, she's your go-to. Very few assignments, straightforward exams, and spontaneous lectures. She does tend to ramble on and make random noises/comments, and some might call her a little crazy. But regardless, she's very helpful and really wants students to pass.

Comment:

Take her class for an easy A. Lectures were boring, she was more of a hist/art/eng prof & I didn't learn a thing about atheism. All her tests are based on essay questions, it'll be easy if you prep for it. Lots of 2x & 3x points given. She often laughed to herself. No email/office hours. Easy grader.

If you take this class try taking good notes at your best during lectures because it will help you on test or quiz. It sure is a hard course especially the test. Study okay and don't fall behind on reading. You should annotate what you just read so you can reflect back. Do your best that's all I can say. I did my best and survive. Good luck!

Nice teacher. There might be confusion during some lectures, but do your best to gather some informations; it will help you prepare for test. Read the topic that the teacher gives out to you and also do her study guides. Take notes in this class because you will need to reflect on them for test and other things. Good luck nature-being.

Teacher of course is nice, but class confusion or feel of lost may occur. Exams and Final exams was the hardest. Prepare to read,do study guide, and do well on your own. Ask teacher for help if needed, she is nice to help you and dont be afraid to asked. Good luck students.

Teacher is nice, class may seems a bit bored sometimes but don't think too much. Reading is a must do and don't fall behind schedule(Read). Exams(Best hint: studieddo her study guide plus what teacher tells you and you will survive, hopefully). A little bit of short classwork or quiz sometimes (not a lot). Don't give up-(history hater)!

Bloody Hell! Easy class (Are you kidding me) not even close to be easy. Got to say, teacher is nice but course materials not organizing (Got Lost). Exam (3-4 Essays written done in one day, no example) this is a nightmare for those with less idea. Reading require, found it head distroy. Quizes are entertainment though. Good Luck!

Comment:

Alice is an extremely nice person but her class was a mess. Her lectures are all over the place, & most of the time irrelevant. Very vague with instruction & assignments. Solely up to the student to read the material and understand it. 3 exams with 3 essay question each, honestly if you can bs very well you will most likely pass.

She is patient with all personality types, and is more than capable of conveying an abstract idea to a diverse set of students. She is approachable, good humored, and fair in homework load.

Comment:

Professor Kingsnorth is a crazy woman, her class was pretty easy and she's a fair grader but she treats you like you're an Anthropology expert when you're in the beginning stages. Her tests were ridiculous you either had to write 3 essays or take 100 question test which she graded on a curve because everyone practically failed.

Alice is amazing. She will work with you. She makes it all clear, and makes sure you have fun. She cares about her topic, and has lived it. I loved her class, to the point she has me considering a double major. I loved her style. Would take any other class she offered.

Comment:

Alice is amazing. She is a sweet woman and highly intelligent about the subject matter. Her lectures can be a little schizophrenic but if you can keep up and pay attention you will learn a lot. I found this class highly enjoyable. The tests can be difficult but as long as you prepare an A is very attainable.
