I loved this class!! Professor Thomas is an absolute sweetheart and encourages everyone to be participating and engaging. It's easy to participate in lectures and everyone naturally is brought into conversations because of how interesting the lectures are presented by the professor. Tons of reading though!

Not open to opinions and interpretations that aren't her own. Also, there were times when she gave the exact same comments on myself and a peer's paper, but gave very different grades. She does most of the taking, and it is unclear which readings we actually need to do for class.

Very biased. Not open to opinions and interpretations that aren't her own, if she doesn't agree with your interpretation (or doesn't like you) she will give you a bad grade. Also, there were a few instances when she gave the exact same comments on myself and a peer's paper, but gave very different grades. Bad :(

Even though it's a discussion class she does most the talking. In class her idea is the only good one. Picks favorite students and reflects this in paper grades. Gave students who chose same paper topic the same comments with different grades. No clue why her rating is so high. I guess she's nice? But just not the best at teaching. LOTS of papers.

Excellent professor. Took Bible as Literature, and she was awesome. Great conversation facilitator, and also made the class think outside of our biases and religious/non-religious frameworks. Reading the bible isn't easy, but it's better than reading a textbook.

By far one of my favorite professors at WashU. She clearly cares about her students so much and genuinely wants to get to know them. Has high expectations and will push you to do your personal best. Also very understanding and flexible. Great sense of humor and all around fantastic professor!

Really funny, she has great dry and witty humor. Very sarcastic and awesome to listen to. On top of all that, she's just a really nice person. Highly recommend.
