Comment:
She's fine at being a professor, but she gives preferential treatment to the women in her class, which is a bit hypocritical considering the subject material she teaches. I took this with a couple of male friends, and they did not feel comfortable. If you're a woman, it'll be an easy A, but if you're a guy, steer clear.

It's an easy class an she is clear on what she wants, however your assignments must be formatted very specifically. Do not take if you are designated as a "Fox News watcher" (her exact words). You'll just have to sit their and have her push some pretty liberal perspectives on you with little to no arguments/information from any other perspectives.

Super easy class. It is a hybrid so there is a lot of out-of-class work, but as long as you do everything you will most likely come out with over 100%.

I took Human Sexuality with her, and it was fairly simple. I think the recipe to an A in this class is that you would attend every lecture and type what she says (see the posted pre-lecture notes) and read the study guide that she posts before each midterms and final. Not alot of reading (just the read the study guide), and 4 easy documentaries

This is THE BEST TEACHER AT OSU! She is amazing and makes you feel very interested in the topics she teaches. I have taken all of her classes and love them all! She is willing to work with you as a student and as long as you listen to directions and do your assigned work and in class assignments it is an easy A.

She's hilarious, and says the most bizarre things, but surprisingly enough, it helps you remember. So go to class, pay attention, and you'll do great!!!

I've had Greaves for three classes now and she is definitely a solid professor. I make my schedule work so I can take her classes over another prof.

She gave up long ago. Tests have poor grammar, lecture slides have not (at all!) changed since 2007. 2007.... Insulting to take a class directed at people who must be insanely stupid, at a respectable university. She might be intelligent and wonderful with people, but it is amazing she was hired to "teach" students at all.

She is a good teacher. Goes off an tangents sometimes. You really need to listen in lecture to what she says not what is written on the lecture slides. MUST have book to pass the class because she gets a lot of her test questions from the text.

I took her hybrid class and LOVED IT. She is the most real, funny, inspirational professor I have ever had. She doesn't put up with any disrespect in her class, and is very honest, which I loved! The class material is great as well. There is no midterm, just a final. Weekly assignments as well though. Textbook is necessary for weekly quizzes.

Took hybrid class. Good teacher, very clear on expectations and is very consistent. She is a very rude, kind of mean lady when talking in lectures. Don't like her as a person, but she is a good teacher and her class is pretty easy if you do all of your work. Would definitely recommend as long as your fine with being yelled at to shut up in lecture.

The midterm/finals are based lecture and reading. Attendance is required to obtain the notes for the tests, and occasionally her clicker questions will be on the tests as well. The only reading necessary is what she tells you on the study guide, otherwise theres ton of useless reading. Easy A if you try, pretty sure she reuses test every year.

Kathy led very interesting lectures when she used media examples and incorporated discussions otherwise though class was mostly what you heard in the online lectures or read in the book. Only reason to be there was really the clicker questions and class activities. Final was easy though and there's alot of work but it's doable.

Really good teacher. Study the clicker questions tho. She's better in 240 but still good in 201. Really good person too. It's an easy A and you learn a lot. 10/10 would recommend.
