Comment:

Dr. Matthews (she got married) is one of my favorite professors. Her class inspired me to add a psych minor. It's all 100% powerpoint lectures. Six exams, a few homework assignments and a cumulative final. She drops lowest test grade which is really helpful, gives 10 min of open book on first test. Would definitely take her classes in the future.

The class was strictly lecture which I enjoyed. She doesn't waste time with busy work but we did have a quiz almost every day. She explains things extremely well and made the class fun and easy to follow.

Comment:

For honors students: Dr. Staton may not tell you when the deadlines, may put things off, or may change the rules on you. (She is the program director). You will get frustrated and possibly not complete your thesis. Honors is worth it, so talk to other prof

Very difficult course, but Dr. Staton is very helpful outside of class! She's fun and geeky. She'll find any excuse to play games during class, which makes the material much easier and enjoyable to learn. You'll have a blast, especially psych geeks!
