Jackie is super knowledgeable about humanity. You can see her passion and knowledge during the class. She is very caring and makes the class entertaining with her colorful personality. The course itself is good, no heavy work. Exams may be a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. TAKE HER CLASS!

Super sweet, easy grader. I wish I could've taken this class in person! 2-3 assignments per week, usually 1 writing and 1 discussion or worksheet or other. 2 1000 word papers. A lot of writing in any HUM class but she's an easy grader, put effort in it and I have 100 almost at the end of the semester! Definitely recommend if you can keep up with hw

I took Jackie for Intro to Humanities (HUM 1020) and Mythology (HUM 2310). Both were super fun and interesting. The tests were take home & a little time consuming but there shouldn't be a reason you don't get an A since the answers are either in the textbook or on quizlet. Jackie is one of my favorite teachers of all time! Big recommend!

Jackie is amazing! I took her last semester for her Intro to Humanities class and she has always left a good impression on her students. The tests I took was writing based on paintings and if you explain your thoughts well she will reflect that in her grading. She is funny and leads very interactive lectures! If you get the chance, take her class!!

Professor Starren offers many extra credit opportunities. Easy A if you are good at writing papers. This class requires a lot of writing however the longest papers only require 1,000 words. Not hard, just a lot of work/assignments.

Take her now! Jackie is the best professor i've taken my entire college journey. She's very caring and understanding. Not only are her classes enjoyable but homework and tests are easy as long as you pay attention. She throws in occasional stress relieve days were we unwind and craft according to what we're learning in the week.

Jackie is by far the best professor I have ever had. She really cares about the subject and her students, you will not have a day where you are not laughing with her. The class is super interesting and the topics that are discussed will question everything you know ( but in the best way possible ). It will be a mistake if you don't take her!!!

Jackie is a pretty cool professor! In the beginning of the semester, she warned us that was going to tear our religious beliefs apart, and let me tell you, she does just that! If you can hang in there till the end she will tell you how she believes and truly put the pieces to the puzzle back together! Love ya mean it!

Comment:

Jackie is overall a very easy grading professor. But be forewarned, she does not use a book in her Mythology class and it allows her to demonstrate a very clear anti-christian bias. The majority of videos we watched during class either portrayed Christianity in a bad light or openly bashes it. She is also extremely unprofessional in class.

Really easy tests (take home, paper) and assignments. There are multiple short essays that you will do through the semester but they are only 1-2 pages. Every tests has 2-3 small essays (really easy ones though). Super easy grader, if you turn something in, you will probably get a 100%. She is super funny and has no filter which I love.

Jackie is one of the best professors I've ever had, she cares and makes students laugh, this class is my first class of the day and I've never looked forward to a class as much as I did with this one... Enjoy the professor so much I'm taking her over the summer as well!

Jackie is an amazing professor and is very insightful, hilarious, and helpful. All of the tests are take home, and can be completed in an hour or two in one seating. They are rather lengthy, but are very simple, the textbook is required. She also gives extra credit out left and right and makes it very easy to get an A in this class.

Each test is take home but includes vocabulary, multiple choice, and an essay portion. Although they are time-consuming, if you put in the effort your grade will show. Tons of extra credit is given and she is extremely understanding of students lives outside of school.
