Dr. B is by far one of my favorites in the psych department! Learning Processes is an easy class if you understand the material and one of the most eye-opening courses I've taken as an undergrad. When she's up there teaching, you can tell that she loves her job. A very inspirational professor!

I am not a psych major which makes this class 10 times harder. I did enjoy the way she makes you think but the tests were HARD!! The material was confusing and hard to understand.

I love Dr. B! She loves what she does even though she is extremely scatter brained. She wants to make sure all her students succeed and will do what ever it takes to help out.

I have taken every class available that Kris teaches. She is so fun! It is easy to pay attention though the tests may be difficult. She will give you word limits to answer nearly all of her questions. She is so flexible to work with and truly makes every student a priority. Plus, she wrote an amazing letter for my graduate school application!

I atteneded Dr. Biondolillo's experimental psychology class, developed a true love for research, and went on to do a special project with her in 1998. I am currently in a PhD program and am carrying on with my research on creativity for my dissertation.

Comment:

On the first day she makes it very clear that you either love it or leave it...Psychology that is. She classifies herself as a scientist, and it shows when she talks about experimental design and article reviews. It's really important that you work hard and enjoy this class because you want Dr. Kris to give you a recommendation for Grad School.

Dr. Biondolillo volunteers to go out of her way to help her students develop professionally, and to ensure they learn the material. Her emphasis seems to be on learning over grades, but prospective students should understand that they will need to give 100% effort to succeed in her classes.

Comment:

She does ramble a lot. You can come to class expecting to talk about one thing and not get to it. Shes very disorganized. Tests are easy you have a quiz every week, theyre just one question. She is very passionate about what she does and encourages class discussions. She will do everything in her power to make sure youre ready for grad school.

Kris is a great teacher! This class was hard, but it was somewhat interesting at times. Our class kinda turned into a "how to raise your child" seminar, but other than that it was good. Very hard, study for the midterm and the final!! She is very helpful and will explain things if you ask.

Dr. B was absolutely wonderful...she really explains the material, encourages asking questions, and is just really awesome...she's the reason I'm adding on a psychology minor. Will take classes with her again. Oh, and this was Honors Intro, by the way.

Amazing!! LOVE this woman. What an amazing energy she has. She works tirelessly to help students understand, learn, and do well. Her GOAL is to be able to give you an A. It's not "easy" though. You will work, but you'll love her. Appreciate her, she is a rare kind of professor.
