Comment:

She likes what she teaches, but in reality no one understands what she is teaching. Her midterm exam was easy if she would have told us what it was on. She sometimes goes clueless, just like she will make you if you take her class.

Comment:

Brownell seems like maybe twenty years ago she was a great prof, but as of right now...the wheel is spinning, but there's no hamster....she's got to be on drugs. Very smiley lady though. Pleasant, but crazy. She once said "bless you" and no one sneezed. I got a good grade, but she can be harsh!

Horrible Professor, do not learn anything.... Luckily I did well in English before I had this class, because I think she makes you un-learn things.

Mrs. Brownell is an excellent teacher, you have to write only 4 papers and deal with RADIO but, you will manage. I receive an A in her class, because i ask question and did the work(writing center is a great tool).

Comment:

She has to be the worst professor ever. She gives an extreme amount of busy work and there is no clear concise grading scale given in the class. She gives tests but she does not tell you what they are on. You have to get used to her...once you start acting as ditsy as her then you will do very well; by the time that comes the class is over.Horrible

Comment:

Very nice lady, but a little flightly. She does not explain any assignments and is not very helpful when you have questions. Tells you how to do homework and papers after you have already handed them in...kind of rediculous. A lot of students are pissed off at her right now and I can't wait until I am done with this class (and I love English)

wack job yes, but the class is easy - come to class with questions for readings (copy from in book because they all have them at the end) and participate = A. Anyone who says differently should hang themselfs

This lady is the dumbest teacher I have ever had! Her class was based out of middle school with Radio Shows and all! She then turned around and graded on no scale- very political! Should not be allowed to teach ever again!

RUN! Take anyone but her. You have to do a Mock Radio Show for the first half. Radio isn't hard but it is Boring as hell. Papers are given without a single explaination of what to do.
