Comment:

Professor Hardy is rude and condescending to the point where it is inappropriate. She calls students out in front of the whole class and points out things that are not appropriate for a professor to pick on. She also is not very organized and blames students for her mistakes. I would not take her again simply because of the way she treats students.

Comment:

She is the most condescending and rude professor I have ever had. She constantly makes you feel like you are not good enough and like you are stupid for asking questions. She also talks way TOO much about the adjunct problem at our school and it often has no relation to class. Avoid her like the plague and you'll have a great semester.

Comment:

Professor Hardy is the most condescending professor I have ever had and she is overly serious and rude. She seemed OK at first, but if you don't have a correct answer when you raise your hand, she makes you feel dumb. On hw assignments, she leaves rude comments. It made me not want to participate at all and I would not take another class with her.

Comment:

Teacher doesn't really care about student success in her class. If everyone fails, she is convinced it was the students, not the teaching style, she will never question herself. Isn't concerned with students learning the material, only with presenting it

Lectures and assigns work like she's teaching first graders. Assignments have nothing to do with the class, though are easy. Extremely condescending.

Comment:

She is the worst prof for this class. She taught us nothing about being freshman, the school, or even anything related to UML. She made us do stupid assignments and didn't know what she was talking about. She shouldn't be teaching a First Year Seminar class.

Comment:

Killing your time. Be prepare for some strange guestions on the exams. (Dean's fullname) She's got some problems of teaching and understanding, but I don't think it's a hard class. If you want something harder, go to Prof. Thompson's Accounting classes.^^

Comment:

Only if the last student who had her for Methods. She was the worse for methods, she doesn't have a clue about the subject. She so laszy that she can't even make her own powerpoints, and not to mentions she keeps the same exam every semester. She doen't go over pronlems related to finance. the class is awful and the majority of the students agree.

Comment:

i'm so embarrased to go to school w/ some of the students who go here. yeah, this class is work, big surprise. high school was like 3-4 yrs ago! she's not that bad she just expects you to do the work, learn something and actually put in an ounce of effort. i'm so ashamed to be sharing the same degree as some of these lazy retards who go here.

I don't think she was as bad as everyone is saying. At least not for MIS. She did keep us late every class and there was a fair amount of work, but this is college! I probably wouldn't take a course with her again.

Comment:

Despite what others may think, Professor Gallagher knows her material. I'm not sure how effective her teaching method is, though. Because she relies on the slides so much to present her material, many believe that she does not have a grasp of the subject. I disagree.

Comment:

This lady is one of the worst teachers. She can't teach because she doesn't know the material herself. It's not hard to get good grades, but two weeks into it you'll hate to hear anything that comes out of her mouth.

I don't think she's a bad teacher. Her tests kind of suck but if you go to class and pay attention to her slides it's not horrible.

this class turned me away from finance. her teaching is poor and very boring. she tries to make up for it by acting overly nice. the work load is high. Many of the exercises don't have much value. STUDENTS BEWARE

The class was ok, she didn't seem like a master of the material, but graded fairly. Prepare to be busy in this class.
