Comment:

for media law, there is not a lot of grades except for 4 pop quizzes, a midterm and final and a group project and a research paper. The homework consists of reading the chapter for almost every class. In class all she does is read from the textbook and you take notes. Very nice and class can be interesting but dont take class if you dont need too.

Comment:

Prof Griffith is not good at lecturing (reading straight from the book), and not a fair grader when it comes to tests/exams. The worst thing is that she has a defensive attitude towards other students (giving very sassy answers, and coming off stubborn). I really hope she tries to improve her attitude, it certainly didn't work for me.

Comment:

This is the worst course I've ever taken with the media department. Every class is a long, hour and a half discussion about pop culture in which I learned virtually nothing. We were assigned far too many members to the group project to be efficient. Definitely take Media Revolutions with Mindich - I hear his class is much more interesting.

Comment:

Traci is honsetly the most out of her mind teacher I have ever had. But don't let the comments intimidate you- her class is awesome. She is upbeat, crystal clear, halarious, entertaining and knows what she is teaching. Media Law is her passion, and it clearly shows. It's a class totally worth taking before leaving Saint Mikes. It was one of my fav.

Professor Griffith is a really awesome teacher. Even though I'm no longer a journalism major, I always look forward to her media law class because it's very interesting. The work is hard, but it's usually rewarding if you work hard.

Comment:

This woman is straight-up insane. I showed up to the first class, then never went back (the ol' "unofficial drop"),although I emailed her to let her know I was dropping. She failed me anyways. After explaining this to the Dean, he laughed and wiped the grade. She was furious & said I would never make it in the real world. I'm now in law school!

She understands Media Law really well, but teaches out of the book and has a terrible grading system. She is stubbern and self righteous. I hate her.
