Comment:
Durden treats students like we are the dumbest people around. On a daily basis, Kay constantly drills into our heads that the class will be offered again next fall becasue we are all going to fail. The tests are rediculous. 8 questions over 7 chapters and the day before the tests, she went over 6 chapters in one day.

GREAT teacher~I learned so much in this class and she taught more like them. She is particular on grading assignments, but very fair and always has time to help with problems. You will come out of class 'knowing your stuff' Attend class, participate and study and you will do extremely well.

Excellent instructor, will work with you to help you understand the concepts to be learned. Assignments are by no means difficult and are conducive to learning. Very friendly and outgoing, she develops relationships with students on an individual basis.

Sophomore level, yaeh right!! She is a complete idiot. She makes things harder than they really are. You would think she would grade a little nicer considering he wears that Iverson bnd on her arm.

Comment:
This teacher makes you study 5 or 6 different chapters and then give you 7 eassy questions. This makes no sense. Why not give multiple choice so it would be easier to grade. I think she should retire and let someone else teach the class.Her time is up and she needs to move on.

She is one of the best teachers I have had. She gives no tests and her lectures are very interesting and informative. She does require a group presentation and she crams all of the large assignments into the last 2 weeks of class.

She is picky as hell! But if you do all that is expected exactly the way she does you will do well. Just remember to ask her exactly what she wants and how she does it!!!
