Comment:

I can't even describe her. I cannot stand her. WORST PROF I HAVE EVER HAD. She incorrectly graded tests, giving each student less points than they actually earned and then refused to change it. She took TONS of points off of assignments because our charts "weren't spaced right" when that wasn't even part of the project.

Comment:

She definitely knows the material and tries to teach it thoroughly, but her tests are extremely hard even if you study for hours beforehand. She is picky in grading assignments as well. She is pretty slow at grading so it's hard to know if you are doing the assignments correctly. She has a slight accent but is still understandable. Very hard class.

Comment:

Good professor. Very difficult, hard to understand at times, but good overall. Willing to help, but should scale back the workload. Treats a 2 credit course like a 4. Knows her stuff. Probably should be a researcher. Salamanders are neat.

Comment:

Dr. Kippenhan is a hard instructor to learn from, but she does know her biomechanics. Attending lectures are vital to passing this course. She does hold students late after class and is difficult to understand.

She's a really slow grader... so you could be failing the class all semester and have no idea. She's also a really tough grader. If you don't understand the material you're screwed

Comment:

She's alright. Motor development was a 2 credit class but it seemed like 4. Her tests are tough even if you study a lot. She's a very slow grader so you basically go all semester without knowing what you have in the class. She keeps you late after class. She's got a thick German accent so it's hard to understand sometimes.

I learned a new stroke in the class and got to work on the strokes that were rusty to me. I had fun in the class, even though it was only 2 months long.

To all you babies complaining about the work load; if you don't want to learn, think, or do work, go to a different college. You are here to LEARN. That is what college is about. Just because you want an easy class so you can slack off, doesn't mean you have to trash the prof's rep. If you can't handle it, maybe college isn't the place for you.

Not too bad for knowing her stuff. She tries to be as thorough as possible. Sometimes you can get her to forget what she was saying, but overall she isn't that bad.

Comment:

She gives a 2 credit class the workload of a 4 credit class. She moves too quickly in lecture, and she isn't clear on a lot of things. She keeps the class late. Half the class has dropped. Information overload!
