Dr. Stansberry was an amazing teacher for World Literature. She wasn't the best for English, but she knows so much about Asian culture that she brought into the classroom with her.

Comment:
She doesn't speak Japanese! She mispronounces words and phrases, and gets upset when you don't imitate her mispronunciations. She changed the syllabus several times throughout the semester, rescheduling quizzes. I'm glad they brought in Mrs. Rotunno to teach and kicked her out of Japanese.

The content of this class is fantastic. You read really great stuff and watch interesting videos. Class is pretty random and unorganized. Quizes often on readings. Midterm and Final were very challenging.

Comment:
She is a little long winded at times but is an overall excellent Japanese teacher. The class involves a little work, but is VERY easy to get an A in. Virtually everyone in the class has an A. Good elective and Japanese really isn't that hard when you go slow.

Dr. Stansberry selects great works of literature and guides her students through them with an admirable amount of patience. She has had a profound impact on my intellectual development, reading life, and teaching methods. I have the utmost love and respect for her.

Don't bash the Stans, my friends. If you put aside any Grove City, type-A attitude, you'll love her class... not difficult if you know your stuff. AND a fantastic person.

She is a nice person, but she is scatterbrained. She should either reorganize her teaching style or retire. Also, the grading should be more objective.

She's such a nice lady that I hate to rip on her, but it's not good enough to be lovably eccentric. She's scatterbrained to the point of being unprofessional, and her grading is very subjective.

oh man, very scatterbrained and subjective. If you know your stuff and your good at bs, then you will succeed. More of a objective thinker, good luck. Personable and pleasant though

Civ Lit with her was so bad- she's hard, can't explain things, and confused the hell out of me.

This woman is fantastic. She has a great sense of humor, and a passion for literature that is very admirable. Transcendentalism rocks! I really enjoyed her class.

Eccentric is definitely the word for her. She was a great teacher outside of class and when you got a good grade on a paper or test you felt like you really deserved it.

Lovably random and ever so sweet (saved my life once when I needed an extension) but not always clear on what you need to know, and a somewhat arbitrary grader of essays.

Yes, she is scatterbrained and unorganized; but she is, after all, an English professor -- that is how they should be, so the correct word is eccentric! She is a knowledgable (especially on Emerson/Thoreau) and interesting professor.

I loved taking Stansberry classes. She could be boring, but she truly had an enthusiasm for the material and students. Watching that awful O Pioneers film in class was one low point. Slogging through As I Lay Dying was another.
