Comment:

She is a very sweet professor, if you read and do your homework on time. It will be a breeze. Don't slack off. She's definitely not a tough grader, but won't give you an easy grade for doing nothing.

Comment:

Freshman Seminar about how the internet affects us. 90% in-class discussion. Participation required! Few papers, easy to write. Homework heavy, but easy! Absolute gem of a professor if you get into the material. Exceptionally helpful in developing writing skills!

Comment:

She does not explain what she wants properly. She treats you like your in high school. No phones out, you can't go to the restroom without her getting mad or commenting on it. Its a seminar class and I did more work for this class then any of my other classes. I was more worried about this grade than my main core classes.

Comment:

This is not a easy class, However she does teach and give out quizzes like nobody's business. She is a very kind person and will be willing to work with you, but I repeat , not an easy class! If you are lazy and don't do readings , you will fail.

I was so intimidated by a Creative Writing class but always wanted to take one. She was wonderful! and now an alum I am going to see if I can take another class from her. Do not miss this opportunity! don't always look for the easy way out! Go and learn with an open mind and it could change your life. Dr. Creighton is excellent & gave me confidence

Comment:

Dr. Creighton is a nice teacher. Lots of writing! She has journals every three weeks (easy A), in-class and out-of-class essays with professor and peer reviews. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO READ THE TEXT! You need to read the text to write essays although its not interesting. Half of the class is about Christianity and the other half about Fast Food.

She is by far the WORST professor ever. She takes tests without telling. So there is no opportunity for you to be prepared on the material she is testing you on. Don't take her. RUN! RUN! RUN!

Comment:

She confuses us. She takes tests w/o prior notice. She will not give you enough time to write your papers. She will not explain the material, but she will expect you to know everything for a "surprise" test. I regret taking her. Don't make the mistake I made. Take someone else. She is making this class harder that it is in actuality.

Comment:

She is awesome!!!! Very helpful and she is available outside of class to clarify things you don't understand. There is a lot of reading required. As long as you read the material and know how to articulate a sentence, you will do well in the class. She is really funny and we had great in class discussions. Definitely recommend her!

Comment:

I DONT LIKE THIS LADY. SHE DOESNT MAKE THINGS CLEAR FOR STUDENTS TO UNDERSTAND. SHE EXPECTS STUDENTS TO FIND THEIR OUR MISTAKES. HER CLASS IS VERY BORING. MAJORITY OF STUDENTS IN MY CLASS DID NOT LIKE HER AS A TEACHER. I REALLY WOULD NOT RECOMMAND THIS PROF.

I absolutely love this woman. She has such a passion for reading and writing, that you can't help but enjoy her assignments. I moaned and groaned about many of them, but ended up thoroughly enjoying myself. Her class made being at school at 8:30 AM bearable and fun.

Comment:

She is great! Good English teachers are hard to find. As a lower level english class she is aware that she isn't teaching literature experts. She doesnt grade too hard...i would say she grades quite easy. She looks more at ideas than writing techniques. I definitely recommend her. i learnt alot frome her.

Good prof, lots of reading and writing. Grades fairly and has very good in class discussions. As long as you read the material and write the papers you'll do well in the class. Not sure if I would take her again though.

I can't say enough good things about Dr. C. She is awesome. Class discussions are interesting. Absolutely recommended without a doubt. BTW, she is not easy, but not impossible either. The workload is an acceptable balance.
