Comment:

STAY AWAY. The absolute worst experience Ive ever had with any class. She does not care if her students learn or not. She will base ones grade on format rather than the content of the assignment. She gives students low grades throughout the semester and then gives them a higher final grade so that she doesnt get in trouble with the school.

CANNOT ANSWER EMAILS FOR HER LIFE. Took a class that was online to begin with (before the whole pandemic) and she was horrible about it. Did not change a thing about her class and had high expectations regardless. Not understanding about outside situations whatsoever. Biggest problem was not answering emails. AVOID AVOID AVOID

Comment:

Stay FAR away, hands down the worst experience I have had on campus. Will fail a 15 page paper without even reading it for improper citations and may end up being the only class I have ever failed in my life. I will never forget the the emotional scars and anxiety this professor has left me with. You will end up contacting department heads for help

Comment:

The most incompetent professor I have ever had. You will not learn a thing in her class, she spent 3 whole lectures telling the same story about how she got her tampons stolen in Mexico. She does not read papers, she only looks for the correct format. Spent days writing a 20-page paper and got a 1 out 10 for not using the correct in-text citation.

Comment:

THE WORST BUSINESS PROFESSOR IN SOUTHERN AND I EVER HAD! DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. Im telling you to save yourselves. She will give you a automatic F on a assignment if you dont follow directions. Please dont take her as it will save your GPA. I recommend taking another business professor for international business no matter what circumstances.

Comment:

Run the other way. Do not take this prof. at all. Unreal expectations, doesn't understand students have lives as well. My grandmother passed away, and her funeral was the same day as my exam. I missed the exam and wasn't allowed to retake it. I even provided proof that my grandmother had passed and the funeral/exam fell on the same day...

Comment:

I took this course online and thought it was very "meh" overall. The group aspect really sucks when you have to rely on others; especially in an online setting. Work load was fairly normal and the assignments weren't too bad. If you are organized and put in a little effort you should have no problem doing well.

Comment:

Worst Professor I'd ever came across in my lifetime. Doesn't need to be in the education system as she doesn't care about students that are willing to learn. As a teacher one should provide the necessary guidance for students to effectively learn the data, which she doesn't have the patience to. Stay away from her classes if you can.

She gave weekly quizzes (sometimes 2 quizzes per week) and weekly group work. Honestly the quizzes and group assignments were not hard just time consuming. She explained all assignments after completing them. 2 big papers, midterm, final.

Will literally fail you for no reason. Only cares about APA format and not your actual paper. No matter what you do you can't get a passing grade in this class.

Comment:

Her grading of papers is unfair and her quizzes and exams are quite difficult. When I wrote my first paper in the class i received a 2 out of 5. I have never gotten lower than a C on a paper, even in technical writing classes. She took off 40% of my grade because I didn't include a cover page. She obviously didn't read anything I wrote.

TERRIBLE!!!! I followed all of the rubric for the assignments and she still failed me on the assignments. I tried to give her a chance and not listen to the comments below but these comments proved to be true. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS. She needs to be replaced immediately!

Comment:

If you care about your GPA do not take this professor. She talks a lot and likes to call on random people. Not lenient at all, if you have any issues with an assignment, she does not care, she still expects it to be done. There are a million of quizzes that you have to take and the exams are graded like we are all Harvard Doctors.

Comment:

When I say do not take this class, I am not exaggerating. The class itself was not terrible, it truly is an interesting class, but the teacher was confusing and disorganized. You will not know where you stand in the class or what the grades even mean. Papers graded out of 4, gave us two midterms and two finals, and a huge 40 page paper. Good luck

Comment:

IF YOU ARE LAZY DO NOT TAKE DR. FRANKS CLASS! Dr. Frank is a fine professor with a broad knowledge of the world. She believes that her students can excel in their academic lives as much as Harvard or Yale students can. Instead of underestimating her students, Dr. Frank chooses to overestimate them. DR. Frank CARES and YOU should too!

RRRRUUUUUUNNNNN.!!! I memorized all the answer straight out the book for the midterm n still got a 15. All these comments are true. She doesn't care. I haven't learned a thing that whole semester. All she does is talk about her personal experiences all through class. YOU WON'T LEARN A THING.!! DO NOT TAKE HER CLASSES.!

Comment:

I would never recommend taking Dr. Frank. If you want a professor who grades papers by their formatting and not the content, take her. We had a group project in this class and my group member destroyed the paper and PowerPoint. My other teammates and I were punished for that group members' mistake and received a D on the paper. Avoid at all cost!

Comment:

You cannot get a 4 on her papers. Avoid her unless you want her to play with your GPA. "A quick explanation on grading. If you did the assignment to my satisfaction, you received a "3." You were aiming to get a "3." I give a "4" to just a couple of papers that seemed to put in extra effort in terms of thoughtfulness, format, and writing."
