If you just show up to class, you'll have all the information you need to pass; I never even cracked the textbook. She's passionate and accessible. She really really wants to see everyone pass the class and will help you in any way she can.

Comment:

She lectures right from the book & lectures are engaging. Europe is her jam, so unless you hate yourself & want to read 600 pages, just show up to class every day and take notes. Never even opened the book except to study for map quizzes. There are a couple papers, one on King Arthur that was fun to write. 2 papers, 2 map quizzes, midterm & final.

Comment:

Diane could most easily be described by the word "oddball" and I mean that in a truly complimentary way. She clearly loves history and often gets swept up in talking about it, but she is funny and her lectures are interesting. Tests are infrequent but expect a few papers (online has more). Whenever you DO have a test she brings treats, though!

Comment:

If you have to take a liberal arts class (and we all have to take a few), Professor Muir seems to be a good choice. She is entertaining and passionate about her subject. Sometimes she is a bit too much, though. Really, I just want to check in once a week and take the tests for this kind of class. She wants to involve you, which can be painful.

I thoroughly enjoyed her classes! She has a great sense of humor and incorporates that in her lectures. She makes history fun and interesting. Class is very straight forward, no surprises.

Comment:

Soc 110 was the first class I took at GHCC, the quarter she taught it. The first day of class she came in and said she did not believe in sociology as a science and disagreed with the book on many points.

Comment:

I acctully shouldn't be griping on her because I got a good grade from the class, but anyway I found that shee didn't keep on topic alot of the time so we didn't have enough time in class to go over everything

Comment:

Diane jumps around to much and is very unclear. While she tries to make the class fun she actually makes it more difficult. I actually advised my sister to not take SOC 110 with her due to its difficulty.
