Love her. We had an oral presentation and to help up we did an escape room based around a paper and was really cool and to leave we had to tell her something that we learned that will help us with our oral presentation. super easy class, if you're hungry bring food. If your phone rings you have to buy the class donuts. Helped you overcome speaking.

Lori is the best professor I have ever had! Her class is super easy, and anyone who says it isn't is just not showing up. Her class is actually fun and we do a lot of activities in groups. There are 3-4 speeches in total and only 2 super easy tests. She even lets you use a notecard when you take her tests. Would recommend this class to everyone!

10/10 professor. This class is super easy and takes little to no effort to get an A. Just make sure you show up! The tests are written response but are very easy. She even lets you use a cheat sheet for each test. There is a lot of group work but it is always fun. Very laid back and simple class. I would definitely take her again!

Comment:

Prof. Crane was a great speech teacher. I am a complete introvert and she was very patient and kind with the introverts in the class. We did 2 big speeches and the last day we did a improv speech. There is ALOT of group work and partner activities. We had two very easy tests and overall she was patient and kind but your excuses dont get past her.

Comment:

I wouldn't necessarily recommend prof. Lori to any mature college student. She teaches like a high school teacher and grades strictly on opinionated exams, despite that its hand written. However, great memories were shared in that room. Honestly she's very initiative, don't be late for speeches and important dates. Beware of the phone policy!!!

Professor Crane is an amazing professor. Don't skip class, be on time, and participate in class if you want to pass. You earn your grade you deserve in this class, but it isn't hard. She is great about making herself available to assist her students even on her days off. You will become a better public speaker if you take this class from Prof Crane

Lori loves to talk! She definitely is the teacher you want to lecture this course. Three speeches that are super easy. She is a tough grader, but she's available to help. Your grade is dependant on her mood! Make sure your phone is on silent, if it goes off you're bringing in donuts!!!! #donutsfordays

Comment:

I do not recommend this Professor. I thought speech would be an easy class but I was totally wrong . And she informed me to study everything she printed out on the study guide the test had nothing to do with the study guide . I barely passed with a C . She is very selfish and will not let you do extra credit!!!!

Lori Crane is hands down the best professor at PBSC. She cares and is hilarious. I was so nervous for speech and saved it for my last semester, but her class is a breeze. If your phone goes off, you either write a 3 page paper, or bring in donuts for everyone. Tests are tough, but if you read textbook and look over powerpoint you'll be fine.

Super easy class. Just show up, homework is cake just make sure you do it because it can impact your grade. Obviously be prepared for speeches. She's super nice and encouraging, but be aware on speech days the doors are locked so manage your time! Also, no phones! She'll keep you informed about everything, actually looked forward to this class.

Lori is overall a great person she's nice and caring and she has a great sense of humor and students love that about her. But, you have to look past that. Her test are super hard like impossible and she doesn't teach all that well she misses important things in the lecture and expects us to magically know it. I wouldn't recommend her.

Lori is great!! Feedback after speeches will help you for the next major speech. Lots of group work but it's fun. Show up to class or fail. She's hilarious and very comforting yet serious when it comes to doing the work. Definitely recommend

Professor is a wonderful person. She made the class feel comfortable making us work in group in the classroom. She knew all her students name. PHONE=Doughnut for the entire class. 2Speech and 2Test with 60question. All little task are mandatory, which she made it sound like extra credit.

The professor was real nice. Her test were not that easy if you didn't study. She will deduct point off speech if too short or too long by 30sec. Any little task she put out is worth point or point deduction. (101,speech bag, anything she ask to bring in. PNONE=Doughnuts for the whole class.
