Comment:
My friend asked for an appointment twice and twice she did not show up. She seems like a real nice teacher and easy at first but she definitely plays favs. I read the material of the ones with good grades and their writing was real simple. She is unclear in her instructions causing confusion and if you don't like workshops than avoid!

Comment:
Dr. Davidson's enthusiasm for the material she taught (American Lit 20-21st Century) and the way she structured her syllabus made this course one of the best I've ever taken. The writing assignments are organized to focus on writing as a process and not just an end product. The class discussions were great!

Amazing prof. I would highly reccommend her to anybody who is interested in developing their knowledge about colonial/post-colonial texts. Never a dull moment, always fascinating, and offers different perspectives on everything she teaches!

Lovely person. She is easy to talk to, and really respects her students. If you work hard, and you will do well. She won't look over current projects, which is sometimes a problem

Most excellent course on literary themes with a focus on treatment of HIV/AIDS/GRID etc in literature since its first diagnosis in 1981. Diana is an excellent teacher, imparting information clearly with an expectation upon the students to LEARN.

One of the best profs in the department, get into her class if you can. Drop any courses that are taught at the same time as hers. Seriously.
