Comment:

You won't need textbooks,but you'll buy enough novels to cover the same cost.She is hard because she thinks it proves how smart she is.She expects too much for the level of classes that she teaches.Perhaps she should switch to teaching grad school.At least those students won't be beginners.

Comment:

One of the worst professors I have ever had. She is very vague with what she wants, and has next to no time to work with students. She gives you a ton of books to read, but barely even uses them. She makes research hard, books only, no database use, paper only. If you have her for a class, drop it quick, or you'll regret it.

I think she is a good professor.She is well spoken and is very clear what assignments she wants the students to do. She may have a big ego and attitude, but in person she is very nice and is willing to help any problem the students may have. I recommend her!

Comment:

I think she is a very good teacher. She tells you how she wants it, but also tells you how to get good grades in her class. She is a women who tells it like it is, and thats what makes her class so interesting. She doesn't ask for alot, but the little she asks for has to be the best. I think she is a good college professor

Comment:

I consider it a shame that "professors" of Dr. Blanchard quality are still allow to teach, especially on a college level. She brings shame to the education system. She is unclear on what she wants, she is not fair on her grading, and she misses way too many classes. If I missed work as much as she misses classes I would be fired.

Comment:

Dr. Blanchard is perhaps one of the more careless professors in the history of education. She doesn't teach anything to the class, she is unclear on what she wants, and she isn't even aware of the whys when everything isn't going her way. I for one feel she should be sent into early retirement, because she has no love for educating.

Comment:

This professor is just the most miserable human being that an individual can come in contact with. I think that her only joy in life comes from making other people as miserable as she is, although I don't think that it is possible, but at least for the short while that you seat in her class she will do her best to insult you and to belittle you.

Comment:

Dr. Blanchard would probably be more likable if she didn't always remind you that she was a black woman in a white man's world or something. I won't even begin scratching the feminist surface with her. I just don't understand this woman at all. She's knowledgeable on all things literature, but that really doesn't mean she should be teaching.

Comment:

She is hard. She expects a lot of work. She expects you to read and to be able to talk about your assignments in an intelligent way. I am a black student, she is a black professor, and I notice that the students in our class she has problems with are not the black students.

look at these people's grammar, and they are rating this writing teacher highly. this professor gives a bad name to njcu. she is confusing, disorganized, mean to students and unfair. i dreaded coming to class knowing that it would be a waste of my time or worse. i would never ever take her again.

She is the most excellent english teacher. she will really improve your english/grammer/writing. I would recommend you take EC1 with blanchard and she is not tat hard, she just expect you to do your work on time and you will ace her class with an "A".

Comment:

Dr. B keeps it real. She is fun and she makes you participate in class. This is one of the only classes where the students opinion was valid. Dr. B does her job and makes you think critically about things, you question everything that you were taught. She teaches you to suspend preconceived notions and sterotypes put in place by "society".
