Comment:

She is a bit strict, but a good choice for TSEM. She is very helpful with papers and for the pop quizzes, they are based on homework, so if you do the reading for the homework, the pop quizzes will be easy. She is very responsive, will answer emails quickly, and has a lot of openings for office hours. Lectures are very clear and informative.

Comment:

I really enjoyed her class. There are random pop quizzes. Her area of History is 19th century American, which I find interesting. The point of History 300 is the 20 page paper. She does a good job at supplying feedback, and there is a gradual process getting this paper completed. I feel that she has made me a better writer.

Comment:

Don't take if not interested in history, and be prepared to write a 20-page final paper. She is big on participation and pop quizzes are common. Assigned readings can sometimes be really long. Grade is determined by many things, but grading criteria is very unclear and she grades harshly (but provides some feedback). Lecture-heavy. No extra credit.

Comment:

Professor Gray amazing! Readings are short and pop quizzes are an easy A. There are 2 pretty big writing assignments but she breaks them up and requires students to have a meeting with her where she gives feedback allowing you to only get an A. Lectures are very interesting and you can tell Professor Gray really cares.

Comment:

Professor Gray is by far one of the best professors ive had during my first semester at Towson. She DOES give pop quizzes, but you know exactly what the questions are because shell post reading questions on Blackboard. Youll easily get an A as long as you do the readings (which do not take long), and write a decent paper

Dr. Gray is a great professor! She is honestly so sweet and her TSEM class was super interesting. It's a lot of reading (you will need the assigned book) for short quizzes, but it's usually pretty interesting material. There's a final 10 pg. paper and presentation but you get to choose your topic. Dr Gray is very helpful through the entire process.

Very helpful and wants you to succeed. There is only one big paper due at the end of the semester with a presentation. She is helpful in guiding you along the whole way though. Recommend if writing isnt your thing because she is helpful. There are mandatory readings each week with occasional pop quizzes but the questions are posted online.

Comment:

Do the readings every day because those pop quiz grades can make a huge difference, and she will give quite a few. She provides the questions in advance though as guiding questions for the readings. Paper will be easy to do well on because you will have one on one editing meeting with her.

Dr. Gray is the best!!! She comes to class everyday with energy and wants to see everybody succeed. Participation really matters in this class. There are pop quizzes but they are LITERALLY the exact same questions off blackboard for the assigned readings. She is the most approachable person. Id love to her take her again.

Professor Gray was really nice but we did get a TON of readings. The subject was very interesting though and she seemed like she knew a lot about it. Everytime we did an essay she met with us outside of class which was super helpful. Answers emails very fast . Sometimes she's hard to understand when she talks other than that she's fine, easy class.

Truly love this professor. She is always quick to respond to emails, she is so helpful. The most helpful professor ever. TAKE HER! She gives pop quizzes but they are super easy if you read the books. There are only 2 books that you need to get. Super interesting drug topics and she makes the class super fun and it makes people want to participate!

Dr. Gray was a great prof for tsem. She is very clear about what she wants and gives you feedback throughout your project. Readings she gives you (not textbooks) are very interesting. Worth the read. I learned a lot of information about drugs and drug policy. Also liked being able to express and hear other opinions about policies. Great class.

Professor Gray is one of my favorite professors at Towson. There is literally nothing she wouldn't do for her students and she really does want everyone to do well. She like the least intimidating human ever but she is a tough grader but only to help you actually learn

Dr. Gray is awesome! I was pretty nervous for the class, considering I've never written a research paper before. But Dr. Gray is as helpful as she can be, she gives great feedback and as many "hints" as possible. I would suggest buying the books, they aren't expensive at all. She's also very organized, which makes the class easier to follow.

She gives pop quizzes. She is a VERY tough grader but she allows rewrites on some assignments. However, she provides detailed and helpful feedback on what you should improve on. You're allowed 2 unexcused absences and after that she lowers your grade. She allows extra credit also. I got an A on the rough draft and final paper but she gave me a B-.

Very clear about what she wants from you, which is helpful because she is not the easiest grader out there. Her TSEM Is interesting and engaging, and I would reccomend it if you want to learn more about drug history and policy. It's more fun than you think.

I loved Dr. Gray! She was very nice and helpful. She grades papers harshly but gives u a chance to rewrite some of them. Her topicsreadings were interesting and I enjoyed discussing them. The pop quizzes aren't bad. U know the question beforehand. Some readings were long tho. There's a 20 pg paper at the end scary but if i can do it anyone can.
