Best teacher I've ever had in terms of respecting students and making the classroom a comfortable environment. Her class instilled in me a love for philosophy I doubt I will ever lose.

Comment:

I got mono right in the middle of the semester and I missed alot of classes, especially since it was 8 a.m. and she was completely understanding about it. I was to take my time on all the writing assignments and re-write them as much as I needed to get the grade we both thought was fair. AWESOME lady.

EXCELLENT TEACHER. Anyone who wants to take an intro course will be very comfortable with her. Senior and junior phil majors will be comfortable too as she challenges you to think.

Sure she grades papers hard the first time... But she practically lets you rewrite it as many times as you want, you can always improve in her class. Dr. Sue is possibly the most understanding professor here.

Comment:

I would not recommend this class to anyone! She has horrible notes. She is very hard to understand b/c she thinks everyone is a philosopher. She gives dirty looks when you raise your hand to ask a question, and makes you feel stupid if you answer a question. And She says she has three personalities.

This class sucks! No kidding! She gives really bad notes and expects you to read the entire book before you start discussing any of the material....she makes students feel stupid in class in front of everyone and she grades papers really hard.....she also grades on high school grading scale

Comment:

Clear explanations in class, many oppurtunities to ask questions in class, and she is more than willing to help us outside of class. often extra office hours. She allows students to re-write papers. She tells you what essay questions will be on the test.

Comment:

This is one of the worst classes I have ever taken. I go to class everyday and read the book but yet still can only get a C. Would not reccommend to anyone. You would think that this was an upper level course and not a 100 level course. Bring a pillow!!!

Of course she doesn't teach everything perfectly easy. Encourages students to challenge themselves. If you want to succeed and learn philosophy, Dr. Sue is always available to help the people who are struggling.
