Good hearted lady and very knowledgeable, but the lectures are very boring and they never end. Tests are difficult and long also.

She can't teach to save someone's life. Find a new professor while you still can!

Very nice lady, but absolutley the worst class.She claims attendance is necessary but i didn't go, got less than an F on every single test and still passed with a C. So do i regret taking the class? No, but probably won't take her again.

Comment:

Her tests have nothing to do with anything she says! And all she does is sit on a desk, i would think she would maybe put the important note worthy things on the board but no, that is up to you to differentiate between just her telling a story or something that actually has to do with the material!

Worst class I have ever taken. She rambles on and rarely is on subject. Helpful hint: read the book and hope for the best. AVOID TAKING!

She has no order to her class and just rambles on about things unrelated. Mostly talking about her miserable life and wishing she made more money.

Comment:

A nice woman I suppose, but this is one of the most painful class experiences I have ever had!! She goes off topic (Which can be good in class but not in this case), and it is pointless to go to class as her teaching style is dry and unclear and you might as well read the book yourself and hope for the best. AVOID TAKING HER!!

She is very hard to understand and when she lectures, it seems to all go into one big ball of confusion.

Comment:

Goes completely off topic. Will talk while you're trying to take her tests which are nothing but a guessing game. Attendance is mandatory but it's completly pointless to go. Best thing to do is just to read the chapters and hope for the best. At least she grades on a curve.

Comment:

She is a very nice person and extremely smart but the subject matter is very dry. I think that because of her passion for the subject she expects others to be as interested as well. Not a class that I like but it's not because of the professor.

Comment:

She likes to talk off subject all the time.. then you're completely lost for her tests.. but at least she curves them or else i would have failed instead of getting a B. =] so its a win/lose i guess.

wouldnt recommend her...she's kind of hard to understand, and she gets off subject easily. if you're not interested in polisci you will have a hard time in the class because she doesnt make it any more interesting.

Comment:

I've received only two b's the entire time i've been in college. I'm in Ryan's class right now and barely have a C. It is an entry level 1100 class that I am taking with her. I think she's just became old and it's time she retire. She will not write a single note on the board the entire year. Do not take her class.
