Comment:
I've taken 3 of her classes. Dr. McGrath has a hilarious, dry sense of humor. She does expect you to read a decent bit. However, the workload is manageable, the reading is relevant, and her attitude is overall caring. She's a really energetic lecturer and should be highly respected for her research. She grades fairly and communicates expectations.

The hardest grader in CWRU. Not understanding at all, and expects her student to write novels instead of essays. Don't recommend.

Comment:
Mcgrath is a very intelligent professor and passionate about HIV/AIDS. However, the class was kind of boring since she would do all the talking. She assigned lengthy articles and they were discussed in class and we had a weekly quiz on them. The quizzes were easy if you paid attention in class and did the readings. Group projects were okay.

Comment:
Obviously a very intelligent woman. She just doesn’t relate well to students. I was always interested in what she had to say, however the format and her delivery were always boring. Tough grader, sometimes mean spirited but overall a pretty good experience since I did learn a lot, even if I had to keep myself from falling asleep all the time.

Comment:
Worst class ever. Teacher is a witch and very full of herself. Undergrads had more work to do than grads. Weekly reading summaries nothing more than busy work to make sure readings were done. Hated this class more than any other.

Readings are not needed. Five papers and a presentation, simple. Lectures are entertaining but not required. She teaches like it's a graduate class. Oh wait, it is. Only prof I know who carries condoms with her.

She is nice and helpful if you ask... but her lectures have ZERO visual component and can be hard to follow. Also, there doesn't seem to be any reason to do the readings.
