Comment:
Not a super hard grader, but not easy either. If you put forth the effort it will pay off. She's not an especially entertaining teacher, so class can be a bit boring, but she is very nice and helpful. Lots of reading! Lots of busy work!

Comment:
She is a great instructor. With that being said, her class is WAY harder than the standard ENGL 102. I learned a lot but had to work much harder for my grade than my other friends in similar classes. You learn a lot, but you have to put forth a lot of effort, so the decision is yours.

Comment:
She is difficult in the sense that you must show up for class EVERY TIME, and the homework that is given is too difficult for the point value. The readings are your everyday Althusser and Foucault. On the other hand, she is extremely helpful, and pushes you to make sure you will be able to write correctly as you go through the rest of college.

Sex, Religion, Politics. Great topic, and even better coming from a professor who has researched these three extensively. You will be challenged academically and personally, but it is soooo worth it. Hands down she's a fantastic professor and one who definitely makes you think.

Comment:
The homework was really great for me. The other people rating her must have misunderstood something. You CAN do homework everyday, but you don't HAVE to. You only have to do about 2/3 of the homework to get all the point. And the homework really helps you understand the readings, which are tough. I got a C in 101 and an A in this class.

Comment:
I would suggest trying to find a different teacher. There is homework due every class period and each is worth 10 points. The assignments are way too hard for the small point value. I've always gotten very high grades on English papers and I got a low D on my first 2 papers. She basically told our class that she gets more money if she fails us!

Comment:
Definetely not very helpful. Too invovled with her own writings going on elsewhere. Never at office hours. Homework assignments are worth 10 pts each due each class some are worth it most are too much work for 10 pts. 4 papers (all on KU). Dull class, dull teacher. She even states that she must give a certain number of F's. I don't get her.

Not a good teacher at all! Way too hard! I am an A student and I work really hard so I got a B in the class. You have to write a 12 page report and interview people. Way too much for a second english class. One english majors should take the class. Nice lady though.
