Suzanne Barnett made Asia come alive for me. A great teacher. Not stuck on 100% boring lectures, but willing to take a conversational style. Willing to both admire and criticize the countries we studied, since (something I learned in her class) there is no perfect society, including ours. I loved this course!

Comment:
I was appalled by the fact that the university allowed such a woman teaching an asian history class. As an asian student I felt at times incensed by remarks she made of Asian culture... I would recommend just buying the books and reading them yourself. Honestly, it's just a discussion based class that criticizes the advancement of asian culture.

A paragon of being "tough but firm." She has a pretty incisive intelligence and can always tell if you're not doing the work. Her classes are always well worth the effort IMO.

Really nice woman but class discussion takes up most of the classes and I was never quite sure if I learned what she wanted me too.

Comment:
Suzanne Barnett might be one of the worst professors I have ever had. Ever. She is unclear in her course description as to what the class is even about and wastes innumerable hours fostering "class discussion" that amounts to little more than oral masturbation on the part of the ego-inflated participants. She rarely teaches or even speaks in class.

Suzanne was a tough professor but in the end she made all the difference, and I'm glad I took her class and had her as my freshman advisor, oh and definetly go to her tea party's, they're the best!

Comment:
Barnett is a very strict (but very good teacher.) Outside of class, she's actually really cool, if you're talking about subjects that interest her. Her classes require a decent amount of work and a lot of thinking.

HIST100C, HIST247, and ASIA144 She is an extremely strict professor who expects nothing but the best from her students. But I singlehandedly credit her for a huge improvement in my writing skills. Don't take her class if you're not ready to be seriou

Comment:
As a professor - merely OK. As a person? Just awful. The most anal person I've ever met. Devoted 2 1 hour class periods to the uses of the "comma." Tends to condescend to students. Prepare to be treated as a 16 year old by her both in and ou
