Comment:
I took her Class my first year at SMU in 1980. She was brilliant. Her side stories inspired me to become a Russian Studies minor while I was a Poli Sci major. She inspired me so much that I took Russian Language at Dal and took more Russian History at Dal from Dr. Periera. More classes from the legendary SMU Professor Dr. Ciuciura. She had wonderfu

Prof. Haigh can be a serious hard ass but if you go to class and show a genuine interest in the material you will do fine. Her tests are killer but everyone can do well on the essays because she will help you. Do not take this class for fun, or something to do. She is a serious professor and you need to take her class seriously!

In my opiniion she is an Excellent teacher. However I can see why people do not like her, she is blunt and rude, which is something that is greatly needed in a university like Saint Marys.

If you want to get an A (+/-): 1. Keep a perfect attendance 2. Take as much notes as you can. 3. The textbook is a supplement of whatever she misses out in class. 4. Read the novels because they take a chunk of your final exam grade.

Entertaining sometimes, even if she is all over the map with notes. Give her a chance because she will warm up to a class over time. Content is easy, she marks a little harder. VERY GOOD with the essay. Bring your A-game and you'll do fine.

Probally the worst Prof I have ever had,to say the least! I have been studying my ass of and getting no wheres with this woman, she thinks shes better then everyone else and has no organized form of teaching. I highly recommend no one take a class from her, maybe SMU will then find better History Profs!

Completely all over the place. She tests on stuff she doesn't cover, but I don't think she realizes it. Unless you can mkae sense of ramblings that have nothing to dow ith the course, DON'T TAKE IT!

A bit condescending at first, but if you show an interest and contribute to discussion, you'll find her very helpful. She has no time for slackers, and will go out of her way to help you with research if you are sincerely interested in the material.

I credit Dr. Haigh with giving me the impetus to add History as my second major. I found her classes to be quite enjoyable, and not only did I learn a lot, I retained a great deal of information from her classes. She has no tolerance for poor students, so if you are a slacker, don't waste her time.

I don't see why most people have problems with her. She doesn't like it when people are late or when they don't pay attention, but all you have to do is take notes and listen to what she says. It's a pretty interesting class and it's not that hard.

Professor Haigh is one of the worst profs i've ever had, She doesn't help her students and even if you show up to all your classes and study good luck, the material on the tests is rarely covered, so even if you study it probably wont help! DON'T TAKE THIS COURSE!!! YOU'LL HATE IT!!

Dr. Haigh is an excellent prof. However, if you are a slacker, expect to do quite poorly in her classes. She has no time for people who goof off.
