Comment:

terribly unfair grader. doesn't grade based on content OR quality, rather how she would have done it, phrased it, etc. unless you're overly confident in yourself or you're fine with a bad grade after hours of work, steer clear.

Comment:

VERY TOUGH GRADER. She doesn't take carp from people, and won't accept late work. Lots of reading [3 books at once] and papers. Nice person, but can be quiet unfair as far as grading. Thorough on what she expects, but overly demanding. Quite a difficult course!

Comment:

She is way to critical of your writing. If you write an A paper you will most likely get a B or even a C. If you are looking for a grade buffer, DO NOT TAKE HER!

She is a sweet professor..However, she gives ton of work and a hard grader..Take this class if you have the time to read and write essays...She treats this as a major course rather than a core.

She's a great professor who knows her subject very well and tries very hard to make you undertand. However, she is also very demanding so you have to put in serious amount of hours into her class if you wanna get an A.

Comment:

Her class is boring, if you don't have an interest in the topic you will be so bored. But she basically lectures, gives H.W. assignments (not every week though), a paper on a book & 1 on a museum project. Only a midterm & final,she tels u what to study.

shes always so perky and cracks herself up, which makes the class laugh as well. still, even though we know exactly whats going to b on the exams, the grading is tough. ppl are in shock when they get their grades.
