Comment:
Dr. Haynes takes great pride in her teaching, and it shows. She uses well-written lecture slides complemented with in-class visual aids and demonstrations as well as field trips throughout the semester to keep things interesting. Excellent course if you're interested in getting an overview of home horticulture.

Cindy was a great teacher. She is incredibly knowledgeable as well. She did have us do a lot of group discussions but they were very helpful. Definitely recommend her.

Comment:
Clearly loves to teach and talk about hort. Points every class for TH so don't miss. HW is laughable easy, which caused me to forget about some, but she forgave ALL of it and let me turn in late. Tests and subject is confusing for non-plant majors, lots of getting used to vocab. 4 Tests for 50 points, difficult but not impossible if you study.

I took this class Spring 2016. Dr. Haynes is a very fun and friendly professor. She loves what she does and is very excited about horticulture. She even took our class on walks to see the plants we have on campus. As long as you come to class, participate and listen to the lectures, you will be just fine.

Great professor for 121. Easy grader, easy and fun homework, easy exams. You always get 100% on clickers no matter what and she gives you the previous year's exams to study from that are literally the same thing as the current exams. Homework includes eating apples and going to Reiman gardens. Easiest class I've taken in a while, got over 100%.

Comment:
Home Horticulture was easy and interesting. Sometimes she made people awkwardly talk among themselves which was always weird. But the tests are the same every year and it's easy to find the old questions on the internet. Clickers and tests are nearly all the points.

Cindy plays favorites, if you're a suck-up and play her games you will do fine. Not a very professional teacher, we had magazine day once! Horticulture department would be better off with a different teacher.
