An ANGEL. Wow, I love Doire. She is passionate about her work. This class is an easy A because she truly wants you to understand the material. She is also so respective of all religions. She inspires you to be more empathetic and overall have better character. Love her! Do not go to CofC without taking her once.

Absolutely brilliant. She really knows what she is talking about, which is a refreshing change from my usual experience at C of C. I will say that if you're super religious you might not be able to appreciate her genius, but she teaches how important it is to understand all of the world's religions without discriminating against your faith.

Prof. Doire is an absolute gem of a teacher and you would be lucky to get the opportunity to take one of her classes. The best humanities I can recommend. There are tests and essays none are which are very difficult and really reinforce the learning. The tests also come with a very thorough study guide and there is no homework! Love her!

Professor Doire is an absolute must. If you have the opportunity to take her in any class, go ahead and sign up. She is so intelligent and such a great professor. Every lecture was so interesting. Her tests are verbatim from her lectures, so don't skip class, but truthfully you won't want to miss a class from her.

class is super easy. all assignments are pretty much based on your own opinion. tests are easy if you look over material on OAKs. attendance matters but you dont have to participate or even pay attention in class to pass.

Doire is an amazing professor that inspires individuals to know more and change. Lots of videos are shown in class and discussion is a big part. Exams are simple and if you understand and paid attention to stuff spoke about in lecture, you are good to go. Papers are simple as well and require an individual to become creative and think academically

Professor Doire is an angel of a women. I took her for intro to women and gender studies and sought out a class she was teaching next semester just so I could take her again. Her lectures are very informative, but not boring. Exam questions are taken from lecture and readings but everything is gone over well beforehand.

Professor Doire is a great teacher, her classes were interesting and at the end of the semester she informed our class that if any work hadn't been turned in to send it to her prior to the final. I sent her my late papers and she graded them indifferently, despite being late. Her lectures are great and she shares cool life stories. Highly recommend

She makes stuff relatable & easy to understand. She's all around cool & super chill. She's passionate about what she teaches but she doesn't shove it down your throat. The tests are hard but it's literally just what she says in lecture & no other stuff to learn on your own & she gives study guides with everything you need to know. Love her!

Professor Doire is amazing. By far the best professor I have had at this college. The course is straightforward. She gives the whole class extensions when she feels as though we might need more time for very FUN essay assignments. She is so genuine and eccentric.

This woman changed my entire life. She is so incredible and inspirational. I have taken two classes with her and would take more if I could. As a woman, she makes you feel so empowered! I took her woman and religion class and it absolutely changed my life.

Doire is a good professor, be prepared to read a good bit though. Class Discussions are always helpful if you don't understand some of the reading. Her tests are also based solely off of class discussion, lectures, and the reading - tests are pretty easy.

If you consider yourself religious and take a Doire class, be prepared to have your beliefs tested but in a good way. She makes you really dig deep into what you believe by providing a non biased view of religion. I started out super offended by her but by the end of my college career, I had taken many Doire classes and it made my faith stronger.

Warning- If you strongly believe in God, I would not recommend taking her class. She claims that she treats all religions equally when teaching. However, this is not the case. She takes an extremely atheistic point of view. Very disappointed with this course.
