Homeworks are easy. Make sure to study for exams atleast 2 days before, read the book. Make sure to sit up front because she talks very softly.

Comment:
Very boring class. I wasn't interested and thought it would be easy. It wasn't easy/simple for me. I hated this class. I wanted to fall asleep. Either that or jump out the window to escape the possibility of being bored to death. The TA didn't know how to grade homework fairly. This class sucked and Karen sucks too.

She really shares her personal interests with the class and makes it interesting. Her presentations are to the point and easy to follow and understand.

Comment:
The material could be presented better to make it more interesting, but the tests are very nit-picky asking some random questions from the book or random things from class. It's a decent class if you are interested in ecology- otherwise don't take it!
