Comment:

Prof. Loury isn't the most exciting teacher. That said, she is willing to help if you show genuine interest and SEEK HELP YOURSELF. She encourages students to ask questions, and although her personality comes off as a bit cold, she actually does have a sense of humor that showed through probably once or twice during the semester.

Comment:

By far, the worst professor I have had at Tufts. All she does is drop names. She has a terribly frigid personality and is, in general, a pretty awful professor. Never comes to her own office hours and always cuts class a few minutes short. Terrible

Comment:

Loury doesn't care much about her students' progress. Hard to reach and very cold personality. Not a terribly hard class but not worth your time either.
