Comment:

Lectures are pretty long and boring, but attendance was only taken at 3 times at random throughout the semester, so you could probably get away with not attending on most days. Exams count for all of your grade; there's only one homework, so make sure you study. If you memorize most of the bones and her lecture slides, you'll do fine on the exams.

Comment:

Not a very good lecturer. The class structure was straightforward though. Not sure if she curved tests appropriately. Be sure you study bones because they are 50% of each test.

Comment:

Extremely intelligent women, however, CANNOT translate her knowledge to her students. Class lectures are random and unorganized. Does not give study guides until she realizes that half of her students are failing the completely RANDOM exams. The exams DO NOT sufficiently cover the course material.

Comment:

Nicest lady ever, but she rambles on about the most random stuff every class. She presents slides, says "You don't need to know this" and continues to ramble. Then she gives you the study guide, and the exam is completely different. It also seems random as well. This class shouldn't be hard or boring, but she makes it that way.

Comment:

She wrote the book on forensic anthropology. Well... not quite. She wrote a chapter IN a forensics book, ON forensic anthropology. Suffice to say, she's prepared for any question. Goes through her powerpoint slides too fast, but fine other than that.
