Genuinely the best teacher I've ever had. Extremely kind and understanding, showed interest in the material, teaches well, cares about all his students, and was especially understanding when I mentioned problems I was having with mental health. I'd 100% recommend him for anyone and everyone
10/10 would take again
Tacelli is the best professor at this school. Take him if possible trust me
The worst class ive ever taken at BC, stay far away.
Funny professor that makes class engaging. He assigns a lot of readings but you barely have to do them because he goes over them so thoroughly in class. So, as long as you pay attention, his class is easy. Highly recommend; he really makes you question life.
If you hate exams and love writing or yapping, this is the professor and this is the class you have been waiting for!
While I understand some mixed reviews, Fr. McNellis is such an amazing teacher. His style may not be for everyone, but by the end of the year, you will have such a great understanding of the material, and you will have enjoyed doing it. Couldn't ask for a better Perspectives professor.
Take her section if you are taking perspectives. She is by far the easiest professor. All exams and quizzes are online and open book. All my other friends in perspectives have 10x more work plus she cancels the Wed night lectures all the time.
Really enthusiastic and interested in the material. Does a very good job creating interesting discussions and talking about what's important in the readings. Very friendly and gets to know students very personally.

not much reading, attendance is mandatory, but shes a great storyteller and very interesting. easy grader too, just get on her good side and participate and youll enjoy the class. recommend skimming readings but not necessary to do them
Super engaging and explains everything really well. Exams are very fair as long as you take good notes in class. Definitely the best Perspectives professor.
