Comment:

The class is called comparative politics but her area of expertise is only South Africa. She is not understanding if you have a problem or missed a class. The class was hard to follow. If I were you I'd avoid taking this class with her if I could.

Comment:

Intro to comp politics. At first her accent is tough to understand, but you'll get better. She can be boring when she lectures but classroom discussion raises interesting points. Tough grader, but not unfair. It's easy to pass but hard to do well. Nice lady and helpful when you ask, also has funny mannerisms

Comment:

have her for women, war, and peace. could be a good class if she wasnt so confusing and unorganized. we watched videos throughout the semester and NOW she wants us to write essays on them (end of semester) AND just told us now about a research paper due in about 2 weeks (we're about to go on break). blamed us for her forgetfulness.

had her for gender and dev. Wasn't a big fan of this class and didn't get much out of it. I never got used to her accent and her lectures were generally boring. I think my time would have been better spent in another class.

Comment:

She's not sure about what she's teaching. When she talks about Africa its obvious that she knows a lot. But when it comes to europe or Asia, only teaches u based on the book.When she's busy she won't prepare the lecture,which means you have to take notes from her strong accent English.Im sure she's very nice person but dont recomend for comp poli.

Comment:

Her accent makes it a bit difficult to listen to, but you get used to it. She's very methodical and calm in her instruction, and easy going. Seems to have a bit of disregard for what hte white man did to Africa, but thats to be expected given her background and history.

Another good course. SHe knows her stuff, the workload is fairly light, but all the readings and in class videos are right on point. If you want to learn about rural politics and/or African history, take her.

Comment:

Eudora needs to be a bit more sure of what she talks about during class; it seems as though she has no knowledge of which subject in which she covers. She doesn't have very good planning skills interms of getting papers back and planning presentations. She fails to hold the classes attention.

Excellent teacher and you can learn alot from her. She speaks very clear and her accent is not a problem at all. Those see it as a problem are ignorant individuals and are wasting their time in college. This is not a fly by course.You do nothing and be ready to fail. Work hard and you'll get an 'A'.

She is a terrible professor. She is very difficult to understand, totally unorganized. Doesn't stick to the syllabus. Assignments pop up from nowhere and have due dates that are unfeasible. AVOID like the plague.

Very smart lady. Definitely knows what she is talking about. Tests are not terribly hard and the reading is actually kind of interesting. I would recommend taking a class with her because you really do learn a lot.
