Comment:

I had her for graphic 1, graphic 11, and Advanced Graphic Design. She gives you work to help with your portfolio as a artist you need to create. By that she makes sure you are going to leave college with enough variety of work to put in the portfolio to get a good job. She is helpful gives good feed back that is well needed, and show slides.

I got an A from her class but she still started to treat me like trash. she can be mean and spiteful and throws her authority around. forget about teaching. she is mean and a jerk who plays favorites. if I had to do it over again I wouldn't have taken her. she taught me 1 thing the world is cruel or at least the art world is. don't don't take her!!

Comment:

She was very mean and cruel to me and not at all supportive. her class was to easy and I got an A. She does pick favorites and its very clear who they are because they get on the bridge and I was at the bottom of the totem pole. she never gave me the time of day. I always gave 100 percent.

Comment:

Best professor I've had at BSU so far. She "plays favorites" because she gives her attention to students who are actually trying. She's very honest, funny, and went above and beyond to help me out. Her class is laid-back if everyone stays on the right path, yet you will learn so much about design and real world stuff. Take her.

Mary is awesome. She gives everything meaning and explains how what we're doing in class relates to the real world of design. She's also a wonderful person and had me laughing a lot.

Taking her for every graphic design class. Anyone who says she isn't amazing probably was a slacker in class. She gives you all the tools you need to excel as a designer and has so much real world experience to help you as a designer. SHE IS AMAZING. Favorite professor at this college.

Comment:

She is a brilliant teacher. Learned a lot about how to further my work and improve. Anyone who says she plays favorites is just bitter that they're artwork isn't up to par. She'll like you put the effort in...not that hard. She's also hilarious, blunt, and honest. Some people can't handle that I guess. Good luck after college...

This was my first class with this professor and I was so happy to have someone that actually talked about what it was like in the real world of design and tried to prepare us. She was awesome! Great teacher and I intend on taking a course with her again whenever possible.

Comment:

Definitely plays favorites! that is the worst thing about this lady. Somedays she was nice other days she hated me. As a designer she is great but as a professional horrible. If you are male you are her favorite.. Besides that the work was good and fair grader.

Comment:

She was a very fair and fun professor. I really enjoyed her and the way she taught. I took her for Advanced Graphics and she not only taught us what was needed but she also prepared us for the real world come time for when we graduate and what to expect. I wish I had taken her more before I had graduated. I learned alot.
