Literally the nicest professor ever, take her, these ratings are just because she's not super energetic. If you want an easy A, she is the way to go

Worst class I have taken in my college career. So much unnecessary outside work and field trips. Lectures are all YouTube videos. Assignments for points every single class.

As long as you go to class and do the work this class is an easy A. If you have a question she is always willing to answer. Super nice if you go to office hours!

Comment:

This class is actually sooooo easy. She really isn't as bad as she sounds. I actually kinda liked her. If you completely bs your assignments and make them a few pages long, you'll get 100% on all of them. You really need to just show up to class and put in a little bit of effort.

Comment:

She is a very bland and plain professor. Her lectures could be more interesting. She was known to be a hard grader but she wasn't for us because I know I wrote down alot of bs and still got good grades. Just show up to class and do the work and you will do fine.

assigns a lot of random in class assignments so be sure to attend class, relies heavily on YouTube clips which gets boring after a few, some assignments are not made very clear, if you're into health and aging this class will be interesting and you are more than likely to get an A

Comment:

One of the worst teachers I have ever had in my life. Have had her for multiple classes and she was terrible in all of them. It's like she doesn't put any effort into getting people to understand the material. Powerpoint's look like a 5 year old made them. Gives terrible descriptions and rubrics for projects and grades harshly without explanation.

A nice person if you take the time to ask questions. Always willing to lend a hand. Had to go to class most of the time just to hand in assignments.

Comment:

Tests, participation, and even assignment grades are arbitrary. The things she puts on the tests are not anything you would've thought to study, which is why going to class is the only way to know what she may want on the test. Also, TOO MANY FIELD TRIPS! I got an A but it was time consuming and frustrating for such a simple class.

Comment:

For a One credit Freshmen experience class we had to write 3 papers, one of which was 5 pages and the others were shorter but were completely time consuming with research that was impossible to find. Her directions are not clear, and expects too much for a one credit class. If you can take UNIV101 instead, DO IT. She is the only teacher for this

Completely unorganized, unprepared and useless for help. She is horrible at explaining exercises before starting them and gives little to know direction. She also does not specify her requirements for assignments but makes marks on hings you should have done yet she never specifed it

Comment:

THE WORST TEACHER IN THE WORLD. This is the second semester taking her and I literally want to jump off a bridge each class. You ever been so mad you can't control yourself, this class puts you one step before that. The content is not even real. She randomly spits information from the blue. Puts it on the test, when it is no where to be found.AVOID

This class has A LOT of outside work. Field trips, service hours, etc. She's painfully boring to listen to, but she's a nice person. I skipped class a lot, but managed to do okay in the class.

Worst professor on this campus. Awful to listen to, and a horrible grader. Everything must be answered her EXACT way on tests in essay questions. RUN FOR THE HILLS.

Comment:

Oh geez, where to begin with Orsega. Well, it's pretty obvious she's more interested in teaching her grad students than undergrad. She's not at all helpful, or approachable, and she is the pickiest grader.

This woman is not only my advisor but my professor as well. The class is time consuming with all the field trips. She is awkward and not very clear in explanations, but she tries. She has become a picky grader...Watch out.

Comment:

Should thank god there is such a thing as tenure. Total moron, can't even look a student in the eye. Gives run around answers to questions. Avoid her at all costs, you become dumber by having her courses. Tests make no sense and questions are pulled from the air, she sucks!
