She's really nice. VEry boring lectures. You don't neeed to go to her classes, she doesn't take attendence. Everything that is on exam(only 2) is from the textbook. you just have to read all the chapters.

Comment:

Don't bother comming to class until the week before exam time. 3-4 days before the test, study the chapters assigned, especially the summaries and definitions and you should do fine. She curves a lot (+10 and +15 on the last two). Test = 40-45 MC.

EASY Class If you are a student who doesnt like to go to classes, take Gordon. She never took attendance. Had 3 easy tests. Read a couple of pages for each test and it is an easy A. This class was a joke.

Comment:

This lady was absolutely horrific. If you don't sit in the front row then don't bother going to class bc you won't be able to hear her. If you do happen to go to class make sure you bring your laptop bc you won't be able to listen to her for more then 5 minutes. I don't recommend her for anyone.

Comment:

You're probably loking at that 1.4 and 3.0 rating like "damn." Here's the breakdown: you don't ever need to come to class because her lectures are 100% useless and she rarely takes attendance (once every 2 weeks?) If all the other "good" profs are filled, take Gordon, but at a time like late in the day or ur 1st class so u can sleep in/leave early.

Comment:

she is the worse professor imaginable. I take naps before class and i end up napping in her class. She manages to put me asleep everyday. Her voice cant go any higher than the creak of a door. The laptop keys are pressed louder than her voice... avoid her terrible teacher.

OMG Boring LADY!!! takes attendance once in awhile. This is the class you bring your laptop to. She doesnt teach you anything, there is no homework and you can read the assignments the day be4 just for the test. Tests aren't too bad, i did the above and got a good grade in the class. She has a girl watch u during tests so do not get caught cheating

Comment:

if you like knitting, you can probably have a shelf full of blankets by the end of the class. She is so boring she makes you want to count the tiles on the ceiling. anything to stop hearing that voice. avoid her at all costs, unclear, and mean.

Comment:

Bad professor but easy class. If you took micro with a good professor first like I did, her macro class will be a lot easier to handle. If you study the chapters the tests should be a breeze. She's a nice lady but her teaching style is atrocious. The good thing is the text is excellent and there are worse eco professors out there like Gokturk.

Comment:

She can't explain anything clearly. Her study guides don't help you for exams. Exams are ridiculously hard. She reads right from her notes, which makes class very boring. My sugestion, is to avoid this teacher at all costs.
