Comment:

Hardest class I have ever taken, and the most useless. I really did try hard in her class, and she still failed half the class. Expects a certain type of writing style, with her own views. Topics discussed in class were not my cup of tea, but if you like learning about historical events etc, you might like it. Very hard maker, switch classes asap.

This class gets my brain going - she makes you work and makes you think about things you don't normally question or think about

Comment:

Totally brutal class... marked SO hard and never returned things on time. Woudl tell u something was ok and then take marks of for it when u handed it in. Assigned WAY too much reading for a first year class. A very bias marker (you'd better write about women's rights if u want to pass)

Wasn't impressed... she wasn't very clear, hardly helpful, and took a really long time to return marked things. She did have her moments, though, and was pretty nice.

The readings were horrible. They didn't make sense at all. After spending hours reading them they still didn't make any sense.

I loved the class, it was my highest mark even though it was my hardest class. A lot of people didn't like her because they were too stupid to make an effort. Amazing class, I'd recommend it to everyone. I learned a LOT.

Comment:

Challenging and thoroughly enjoyable material. Requires an open mind. I was not disappointed. However, I see how it may have gone right over someone's head if she/he had come to the course expecting a cutesy discourse on "girl power".

Honestly, I may as well have been taking introduction to Klingon for all that I understood of her class...the readings were brutal, and so were the midterms...never again
