Comment:

She is hands down the best professor I've had in my four years at Saint Michael's College. She is honest, genuine, and heart-felt. She also is an incredibly smart woman with strong activism skills and experience in her field. She only wants the best for her students, and believes that double-dipping (using the same projectresearch for two classes) is completely acceptable, and even encouraged. She treats every question equally and never makes students feel dumb or inadequate. Very willing to work with students to fit their needs and schedule. She is a total sweetheart with an incredible sense of humor. She radiates care for human kind.

Prof. Siplon is very passionate about her subject. Shows interest in students and will help you if you need it. Sometimes goes off topic to discuss what is going on in current events.

Pretty good class. Lectures are sometimes boring, but she has an impressive knowledge of the Middle East, and it's interesting to get somebody's perspective who has been there. She is brilliant, and her class is a breeze, particularly if you know literally anything about government.

She is by far the most influential teacher I have had- She has a passion and it translates into good teaching. Siplon cares about you and really wants to know where your ideas are coming from. She doesnt judge you even if your ideas are different. The classes are easy so long as you do the work. love, love, love her.

Comment:

Gives a lot of reading. Expects the students to become activists and kind of dislikes you if you have no such interest. Fair grader. Her stories were good, but class discussions were tedious. Take for a relatively easy A-

incredible Professor, incredible person. What an eye opener this class was, and is. I look forward to more classes with trish, and hope I can have as much of an influence on the world when I grow up as she does right now. There needs to be more teachers and activists like trish.
