We, the students of Theology (BIB 304), respectfully petition the office of Academic Affairs at Arizona Christian University for multiple improvements to be made regarding Professor Alatallah. Our attempts to resolve conflicts during class sessions have only resulted in more confusion and no solution. As a class, we have composed a list of needs and concerns that are not being addressed:

  1. Communication between the class and the Professor is very limited. Discourse is challenging as the Professor has trouble understanding students or listening to different opinions.
  2. Basic guidelines for assignments are ambiguous as due dates and requirements are constantly changed or not given at all.
  3. Study guides for quizzes are given verbally in class and are unclear on the specific material to be studied.
  4. The semester is almost at the halfway point; yet, no grades have been posted.

As students who care about their academic work, we respectfully request changes to be made. We simply ask to be given certain due dates for all assignments, essays, and tests. Further, we would like for all guidelines to be detailed, clear and posted on myACU. Quizzes can also be made fair by posting study guides online. Lastly, communication seems to be the major problem; thus, we as a class will be patient and considerate with the Professor and ask that he do the same.

Sincerely,

He is a bright guy very smart but very hard to clearly communicate with him so when I have questions I can’t make them because at the end the question I had wasn’t answered and is left unclear as well he changed the syllabus dramatically half way through the semester we have other classes too I had a calendar organized and he’s changing everything I feel like he doesn’t know how to use my ACU as well so I can’t keep track of my grade and or he doesn’t upload the study guides great wise man bad communication

I could not agree more!! Something needs to be done about what is going on in this class. I do not want my GPA to suffer because of lack of communication and guidelines.
