Professor Dorment is the sweetest human being in the world!!! If you show you care about her class, she will love you. A lot of papers and she is a tough grader, and you read SO MUCH! I would take her though if you have the chance.

Professor Dorment was an amazing professor. She was my first college professor and I really enjoyed her class. She started off class by asking whats new in the world? And we were encouraged to talk and share our opinions. Her insight is fantastic and he is very knwoeldgable about history. And she also tells amazing, funny stories! Great teacher!

Comment:

She is a very tough grader. She rarely ever puts anything on the board & if she does put something up, it is just a list of a few topics she is going to lecture about. she speaks fast and sometimes it is unclear what she is saying. its hard to focus in her class because it is incredibly boring. Its hard to take notes to go along with her lectures.

Comment:

Lovely professor if you show up. Lectures every day and reading for every class (reading necessary for the work but only needed for in-class participation.) Very few essays, ten one page papers due for a simple final project. Helps if you get to know her and establish a relationship.

Comment:

Maureen is the OG. She loves what she teaches and only one exam was in class - our second exam and final exam were both take-home papers. There's a quote project that lasts the whole semester - do one a week and you'll be fine. Show up to class and take notes and you'll be fine. DO THE READINGS, but it's not VITAL if you can skim easily.

She speaks incredibly fast and goes on and on for the entire period. she rarely writes stuff on the board. No visual aids. lectures are never engaging. tries to cram too much info. you cant lose your focus for a second. assigns a lot of reading. for homework you have to interpret documents. VERY TOUGH GRADER!

Does not teach, she reads off of a paper at us. No visual aids. Tests are unbelievably hard and to be honest she is rude fir no reason. You can try your hardest in this class and still not get higher than a B+.

Comment:

The bane of my 2nd semester of college. DO NOT take her. She has no knowledge on how to teach millennials. The culture is constantly shifting &she fails to keep up with us. Her lectures are mundane&drag on for the entire period, she writes little to nothing down&tries to cram too much info. There is absolutely no thinking for yourself in that class

Comment:

Professor Dorment was my favorite professor last semester! She assigned readings for every class, and in order to do well on the tests you have to know the readings. If you pay attention to her lectures and take good notes, you will do very well. She is very willing to help you catch up if you find yourself struggling. I'd definitely take her again

Comment:

Professor Dorment is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. However, her class is basically a lecture where she talks the whole time and you just listen. It can get boring but just sit there and listen. The class before an exam is key because she tells you what will be on the exam. There are only 3 exams so take them serious.

She speaks incredibly fast and doesn't have power points or anything online to refer back to. It is imperative that you take notes and you must pay attention every minute. Never lets class out early. Grades papers tough and doesn't explain why she took points off. Nice lady, bad teacher.

Comment:

Dorment was a great professor. She talks a lot and classes consist of mainly lectures, but it was a fairly easy class if you like history. Shes a little bit of a tough grader because, but overall it was a great class. If you are looking for a good class to take, I would definitely recommend her. She's very nice and there to help you if you need it.

Comment:

The clarity of her lecture days are awesome but when it comes to essays and prompts YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN. She makes comments like "no" and "not a good sentence" and doesn't even give you a real prompt for the essay. The class overall is easy but you have to fend for yourself with creating an essay. She does grade them easily though. She is sweet.

She is a lovely lady. Her lectures are very boring but just deal with them. There is three tests and the easiest homework ever. She gives take home exams so you can use your notes. Very easy! TAKE HER!

Comment:

Professor Dorment is such a sweet woman. I had her for first year seminar, it dealt with culture war in America. It was actually really interesting. She gave a lot of papers for a first year seminar class, but they were easy reaction papers. She always wants to know what is going on in the world and likes when you participate.

Comment:

She is very boring, her lectures are never engaging and make the most interesting subjects a snooze fest. She isn't very helpful if you don't understand the material or an assignment she gives out, and takes forever to answer your emails. Her exams are all blue book essays and are pretty easy.

I had her for western civ 1. She really knows what she's talking about and is willing to help those who don't understand the material. Her tests aren't easy but as long as you study what she gives you, you'll be fine! Pretty easy workload - just some quote write ups. Great class!

Professor dorments class was challenging but she offered so much extra help. She had available office hours always and would do what it took for you to get an A or B. I truly did like her a lot
