Dr. Fennessey is an amazing, reliable, loyal, and dedicated professor. She goes above and beyond for each and every one of her students. When I had to miss an important lecture for a religious holiday, Dr. Fennessey met with me over zoom for about 2 1/2 hours and taught me one on one and made sure I clearly understood the concepts and important things to remember. We were on zoom until about 10:30 pm and she offered to stay on longer to make sure I understood everything. Another time was when I didn't do great on an exam, she asked me to meet with her to study for the next exam together to make sure I understand what she is teaching and pass the next exam which with her help I did! Dr. Fennessey doesn't need an award to show how amazing of a professor she is but she most definitely deserves some recognition for how dedicated and loyal she is to her students.
