Comment:

So basically, I had no idea what the lectures were about all semester. She gives multiple extra credits and quizzes from the readings which are fairly easy and good to boost your grade. Her notes are bad, small handwriting. This is an okay class for PHI majors, but honestly I wanted to die all throughout. I was so confused in every class.

Comment:

The professor is really difficult and unorganized. She writes all over the board and thinks we should quickly comprehend the material right after she writes it. I am struggling in that class and regret taking it. Her test is about 100 questions and has quizes each week. The quizes are not bad just have to study it the reading she assigned..

Comment:

If I was a philosophy major I imagine this class would be okay. The material is not too difficult as long as you study and show up to class. Webber just assigns a lot of reading and this class takes up too much of my time. I'm a PA major and I'd prefer not to spend so much time worrying about PHI and focus on my more important classes.

Comment:

Professor Webber teaches like students already assume everything, so she flew past material that happens to be very complex, difficult, and confusing. Her notes on the board are all over the place, incredibly unorganized, and not to mention so small and sloppy The tests consisted of questions I wouldn't expect to be tested on. Tests: 70 Q's + essay

Comment:

Took this class at 7:30 and it was so hard to stay awake. She is very boring but she does give clear notes and makes sure you understand. Class is mandatory and you do need the textbook. She gives quizzes every class pretty much so that was annoying. If you are going to take her class, don't take it at 7:30 because you will fall asleep.

Don't listen to the bad reviews. She's great. She gives you all the notes you need to study for exams. There's only one book you need you buy for the class & the readings are all from there & manageable. Has a clear grading criteria but you MUST go to class. If you do bad its all on you because she literally gives you what you need to get an A.

Professor Webber was awesome! Don't listen to the bad reviews, she's gives very detailed notes although messy and will go out of her way to make sure you understand. She provides many extra credit opportunities , and there is only one paper. The tests are really easy once you payed attention in class and took good notes. Take if you have the chance

Love Prof. Webber. She's amazing Don't listen to the bad reviews. Unless you're a lazy student who puts no effort, there is no way you can get less than a B. Her notes are the test so copy EVERYTHING she writes. She provides many extra credit opportunities. If you have a question, she tries her best to explain until you understand the subject.

extremely nice lady but her class was awful. had it at 9:05 could hardly ever stay awake. she covers the same material for too long and her explanations aren't clear or interesting. this was my first philosophy course and this class made me have no interest in it. she'll try to help you get a good grade but her class overall was frustrating

Comment:

She's definitely not the worst, but just don't take her if you don't have to. Her stupid quizzes on the readings are more difficult than necessary. Piles up the work towards the end of the semester. Better to just avoid.

Comment:

she has been called out several times for not knowing philosophy and then tells us its extra credit if anyone figures it out. she likes to think shes a doctor, but she really isnt. never really told us what to study for a test. unclear and not much of a help
