Comment:

Class was really easy as long as you attend the class and do the work she gives you the questions that are going to be on to test and she picks a few of them to give the day of the test.. not very clear and needs to retire but it's an easy class. Took Schools of psych and crisis intervention with her

Comment:

The lectures were underdeveloped and generally unrelated to the coursework. Often name-dropped, and used lecture time to casually discuss her personal life. VERY old school, had a condescending and belittling approach. As long as you are strong in APA writing and ability to self-study, it is far from a 4000 level course.

Comment:

Had her when I attended FDU in the 80's. Had her for many psychology courses. Thought she was fantastic and I learned a great deal from her classes. I'm now applying what I learned from her and the rest of my studies at FDU as a social worker. Thought FDU was an excellent school and the psychology department was first rate.

schools of psych prof. useless class where you learn about her life. tests are impossible BUT DO NOT COUNT TOWARD FINAL GRADE. tests are also curved. if you do well on the paper you'll get a good grade in the class.

Comment:

Explain to me how such an incompetent woman is allowed to teach let alone hold the title she does. Sitting back in your chair and mumbling about nothing isn't teaching. Name dropping every ten minutes isn't teaching. FDU, get a clue and fire this woman now. Please!!

Comment:

First of all, the woman teaches Multicultural Counseling, and thinks the only Hispancis living in NJ are Mexicans and Puerto Ricans!! Are you kidding? I could care less about her husband who only once in her life showed up late and her daughter with an eating disorder but that's all she talks about! Worst teacher ever!

Comment:

She is a spiteful woman who should not be teaching. Her only claim to fame is she knew Stanley Milgram. Oh, and she has attached her name to some publications written by students. I learned nothing from her and I graduated at (or near) the top of the Addictions Counseling MA program in '00.

Comment:

I took her almost 10 years ago- I can't believe they have not put her out to pasture (or to sleep) yet. I looked her up for S&Gs- The WORST PROFESSOR I ever took. Didn't teach me a thing. Worthless, awful,and I'm not sure she knew where she was back then- can't imagine now- STEER CLEAR!

I still have nightmares of this woman. Behavioral Research class, made everyone do their papers, then the week before it was due basically told everyone they were invalid and everyone needed informed consent that she told us not to get. Why isn't she retired yet?

Comment:

She walks in sits behind the desk and talks for the rest of the class. There are no group projects, handouts or overheads. Content is one of the things she needs to work on. The majority of her lecture is random stories about her family. She needs to seriously work on her people skills too. She's often belligerent and belittling as well.

Comment:

The course should be retitled, the autobiography of Dr. Waters, and she will tell you there are only three grades in this class A, B, and what's your new career. But her curve is pretty good.
