Avoid her. Extremely difficult class. Hate history because of her. Need to repeat this class but scared to death to go through everything all over again...

Comment:

I took her modern latin american class and she is pure lecture. I took a lot of notes so I didn't really need to read the textbook. Three exams and two book reviews. Pretty easy, and I learned a lot. She really enjoys the subject, which I could tell.

Comment:

This woman is amazing!! To those who are looking for classes that they don't have to attend and care about, take a different professor and don't waste her time. If you meet with your professors, it will help you a great deal, esp. with Dr. J. I cannot wait to take another class from her!! She truly is passionate about history and all it entails

Comment:

Judy is a good teacher. She does speak fast so you better have your pen ready. She has hard test at times and multiple choice questions not on study guide. She doesn't have very many assignments, and tends to give lower than average grades to everybody. I had to work my butt off for a C+

Comment:

I went to every class, study sessions, and knew the study guides inside and out, and still got D's on the exams! Her tests include questions that she does not even teach in class. Extremely hard teacher, and she doesn't care to help. If you can avoid taking her, do it!

Comment:

She's knowledgeable and makes history interesting, but she is a stickler for being on time so don't be late! Her tests are difficult but she does provide a study guide. The best bet is to take good notes, understand the concepts, and be prepared for anything. If you have to take a history class, take hers. She's an excellent history teacher.

Her class was very interesting because she is very knowledgeable about the subject. He tests are very hard to study for but she is also very understanding to the fact that not everybody is a History major. I've learned alot in her class!

Loved the class. She's tough but an excellent teacher. She expects a lot from her students (like showing up for class) Hope to take more classes from her.

Hard class. Must understand all concepts because her tests intertwine them into one question. Study guide not especially usefull. Write down all that you can. Her grad assistant grades harder than she does.

Lectured almost every class, for the entire time (1 hr. 15 min.). She gave Study Guides, but I still did poorly on the tests. I understood the material, went every day to class, and took pages and pages and pages of notes - I got a C.

Very hard to study for her test. Puts way to much emphasis on identification questions on her tests. If you can help it try not to have her.

Comment:

Unbelievably hard, 50 minutes of straight lecture everyday taking notes over all of it. Spend days and days learning about labor unions but one day over WWI and WWII. I contemplated being a history major before this class, but then after i never wanted to take history again.

Comment:

Lectures all through class, completely skips over military studies and instead focuses on factory workers and skips over republican presidents. Plays favorites with students. Grade based on 3 tests and a book review that you'll be counted off for if it's not with her opinion of Fast Food Nation.

Comment:

Extremely hard professor. I looked and it seems as if they are not even letting her teach next semester. Thought about majoring in History because I enjoy it & know an awful lot about it. Then before taking this class I got on here like many of u are & still took it and received an F. Believe it!
