Comment:
Professor Kearns, while an extremely sweet and eloquent woman, could just not keep my interest up. Perhaps it was the material - learning dry grammar techniques early in the morning is not how I'd suggest anyone begin their day. However, she was a fairly easy grader and was always pleasant when I had a request or question about an assignment.

Dr. Kearns is an incredibly brilliant and eloquent person. Her genius for linking concepts together and spinning a lecture together is marvelous. Probably the best lecturer I've had so far, so captivating and so approachable.

Whatevs guys. Kearns is a fascinating prof. Her lectures might seem boring because its not a style we're used to. Course materials are engaging and interesting. If you need more clarity, just go talk to her during office hours. She's not going to spoon feed you A's but if you work hard she'll notice.

Very nice lady, and was very passionate about the subject. I had a hard time getting over a B on any assignment, and I felt her clarity for assignment was unclear. Going to class will help your understanding of the readings.

Okay prof. Very nice and approachable, but a tough marker. I am an A student and never got anything higher than a B+ on her assignments. Isn't very clear on the criteria needed for assignments. But she is very lenient on deadlines and will give you extensions if you need them.

Took Revolutions in Communication with her. She speaks very quickly and in a disjointed fashion. Very, very difficult to take notes from. Class was really quite boring. Tough to know what is going to be asked on the exam. Wonderful lady, not a recommended course.

Comment:
I took Rhetoric of Gender with Kearns - she is a super tough marker and her exams (sort of) require you to read the entire coursepack she creates. You *don't* however have to be in class really. I'm an A student and ended up with a B+. Overall she is passionate about the subject but not very helpful on a student relation level.

An overly hard marker but a nice woman who is willing to give extensions if you give her some notice. Fairly alright prof though does get boring sometimes. Its fairly hard to get an A in her classes. I was told by my history prof that I write way above my level and yet I never got more than a B+ on any of her ass. Our whole class got a B as a final

I thought she was a pretty good teacher. I mean you never really know what she's talking about...but if you listen to exactly what she wants in an assignment and do exactly that you can get a decent mark (A).

A really good prof; very clear on her wants for all assignments. If you work hard, and do the assigned readings, you'll be fine. I never had a problem getting A+ in her class. Definitly does become a lot of work, but she is super leniant on deadlines...will give extensions if needed, and very approachable in and outside the classroom.

She is a very good prof provided you are willing to put in the effort, as well as try to actually take something from her courses. I found her to be an average marker (nothing above 80%? I've never had a problem getting A+s with her!) and very willing to help. Be prepared and you'll do fine.

Terrible Prof. Very boring, very unclear of wants. Slept through 80% of classes. NO ONE does good in classes - believe me I write good papers (told to me by eng prof). She is crazy and very hard marker!! Never did ANY SCIENCE LABS OR SCIENCE! - if you are taking science one - DON'T TAKE WITH HER!!!!

Do not take this course if you can avoid it! It's boring and completely unhelpful. No one really gets above an 80% no matter how good your papers are. Trust me, I'm smart.

Very nice prof, very helpful and friendly in and out of class - wants to help students understand and do well in the course. Lots of reading though - be prepared for exams! Very lenient with assignments (due dates etc) - good course.
