please. i got an A in this class. all you have to do is pay attention and read, even if you read it all 2 days before the exam. not as bad of a grader as ppl say. she's explains things well and theres NO homework at all.

TAKE HER!! She is funny and makes an effort to make the class entertaining. I found the class relatively easy, just do the readings and let the class notes direct you, and you'll be fine.

Comment:

she is EXTREMELY boring, I dreaded going to her class. you would leave it thinking that you just wasted an hour of your life. she is so into the stuff that she teaches that she doesnt bother explaining it to anyone. she also is a horrible graded, she massacres papers not grades them. DO NOT TAKE HER!

she never gave anyone a chance to do anything right. she graded based on how she liked the student. she gave papers that were ridiculous and no one got better than a C in her class, look out!!!!

Comment:

I took her for Human Nature and I'm taking her again. Take her and you won't regret it. Her quizzes can only help you and on the exams all you have to do is write everything you know. She's really willing to help students outside of class time too.

Comment:

I was in the class for only a short period of time becuase my philosophy credits from my previous college held.In my short time in her class I found her to be an engaging teacher. She was able to explain the concepts well, but I am a Computer Sciences major and there is no way I am going togive hours of my time to Plato. Sorry just know way.

Comment:

She is by far the most feminist and useless human being I have ever met. Although she says attendence isn't mandatory she'll hold it against you if you fail to show. You can't use class notes on exams, because she expects you to be Plato.One of the most unfair graders I've come across. She will single you out in class and ridicule you.

Comment:

She's a tough teacher when it comes to the quizzes and she has a definite way of shooting you down but she's so well-read in Philosophy and is so interested in the material that she teaches it really well. I'm taking her again for Ethics because she conveys the material well and all you need to do is pay attention and try and you'll do amazing!

I LOVE THIS WOMAN! She is brilliant and explains things so clear. If you spit out everything you know on her tests you'll be fine. I learned sooooo much from her.

Comment:

Do not take Scurro. Sure, it seems like u understand it when she breaks things down in laymans terms, but u arent allowed to use notes on papers. her notes are unclear; her corny humor is unbearable...stickler for having things on time but is always wayyy late with grading. She attacks papers, not grades them. Do yourself a favor, NO

Comment:

Scuro is the best. Lectures r extremely engaging & its great when she adds a bit of comedy to them-which is often. She def gives u her time outside class, explains Philo extremely well, expects u 2 do the work, not-uptight, & always reponds 2 emails. Brilliant woman and classes r worth every minute.

Comment:

She is very engaging and breaks everything into layman terms.YOU WANT SCURO. There is no homework only a midterm,final, and term paper.The trick to the term paper is to write like a philosopher, have fun with it but don't exaggerate and try to mimic plato

Comment:

The only thing that you'll remember from her class will be that she compared philosophy to sex and chocolate cake...she will NOT actually make you understand philosophy.
