Comment:

Professor Ostrowski, PhD is one of the best educators that a student could ask for... She is super smart and absolutely classy.. NYtimes = Textbook - everyday!!! She set the bar high and only thing she asked in return is for you to do the work... It was hard work but it paid off in the end. Tough grader--makes you grown as a student/human being.

Terrible class. If you only care about getting an A, choose her, but if you actually want to learn something, I wouldn't recommend her. She doesn't consider other peoples' view points and if very opinionated.

She is miserable. Worst teacher I ever had at Sccc and U Alb. She brings up her divorce all the time. Feminist hates men. Is rude to her students. Made a comment to me hinting about being a english teacher because failed at being a writer. Unclear in her assignments. God forbid you ask her a question about anything. grades this sem A, B,A her clas

Worst teacher EVER. Conceited,long-winded, and incredibly boring. Assignments difficult to understand. Talks down to you. Swears constantly in class. Incredibly strict. Basically, not a good professor at all.

Comment:

Vague, unclear grading policies. Vindictive to students. She is overly verbose and yet communicates nothing. Would NOT recommend to anyone. She always keeps us late in class, and spends a lot of class time talking about nothing.

Comment:

Brings up her divorce all the time.In the beginning of the semester she told us that she doesnt know what she is suppose to teach in College Comp, but that didnt stop her from giving assignment after assigment. One assingment was to identify and analyze our interpretation of a song. still not sure how to research my opinion...

ok, so you guys are really giving her a hard time. the class was tough, but she gave you the oppotunity to revise your work. she's a nice lady and i found her interesting. she knows a lot and is a good teacher. maybe some of you are just lazy.

Comment:

She is a bit opinionated, particularly when it comes to speeches. Luckily she does tell you ahead of time what she is looking for, and does so through an example she gives. No Text, and that is a plus, plus she will help you if you seek her out. She tells you her expectations, and is completely to her word.

Comment:

This class was pretty frickin easy. You have to do a fair amount of reading but most of it was interesting. A lot of writing, but short and easy opinion pieces. A big paper or presentation at the end but you get to pick the topic. She is a bit odd and really opinionated but I liked her.

She's very helpful and doesn't quiz you on readings, but the lectures stink and the final was a doozy.
