Comment:

ALLLL vocabulary. In order to get into college, I took classes far harder than this one. I wanted to write and I got an elementary school class. She is sweet and energetic but the class is a joke. I got a B+ because I did nothing.

Comment:

Two exams. 2 or 3 days of doing nothing like going to the ARC or hoola hooping. One exam was a group exam. A few easy written assignments and an easy powerpoint that you can do off the cuff. For a GE... TAKE THIS ONE.

Comment:

Nice lady. Horrible teacher. Do not take this class! There's a lot better options out there. Take another teacher or Rec 305. I sat through almost all of her excruciating classes, did the work and got a C. If you are in her class, the only way to get a good grade is to suck up. She is an embarrassment to the rec major.

Comment:

She is the worst instructor I have had at state so far. The lectures were scattered and I learned nothing from them. The tests were based on her text which we only went over the day before the exam. I showed up to every class, did all the work. And somehow she managed to lose my tests and gave me an F. Take this class with someone else!

Comment:

you would figure this class would be and easy A but thats not the case. The lectures are SOOOOOOOO scatter brained. You do pretty much nothing for a few weeks, you think that the class is gonna be a joke, and then, bam, all of a sudden you have a test on 100 pages in her worthless reader, which consists of POINTLESS reading that only confuses you.

Comment:

Her book is a complete waste because a lot of it is hard to read and her editing of the articles was terrible. Her tests are ridiculously hard because she has the worst grammar. Take any other professor, she makes you do some ridiculous out of class work and then the discussions in class are horrendous. She seems really sweet but DO NOT TAKE HER!

She's nice, but the classes are boring. It's an easy A if you're willing to go to class. There's basically no reading required. I did nothing and got a B.

She's hilarious, the class is an easy A as long as you turn in the homework. I never opened my book once or read a thing and got an A. She's laid back and really nice. Take this class.

Janis is very unorganized. She will give questions on tests that she hasn't even covered in class yet. Unbelievable that she has a job at sdsu! AVOID HER. I am an "A" Student and got a B. First Time.

Horrible teacher, tests are incredibly hard, class is random and just because its called Challenges of Leisure doesnt mean its easy. Don't take this unless you like BS assignments and a C
