Comment:

Professor was one of the best I've ever had and I attended harvard as well. Some of these comments are not fair. She is a true professor in the greatest sense and deserves the highest marks on this website.

Comment:

All these students need to know what it is like to go to a real college. Dr. Birdwhistel is a wonderful woman just doesn't let idiots skate through her class like all these other classes that are a joke at Stockton. Try and actually do college level work and you will love the class!!!

Comment:

She does not budge and is not very understanding, she is single minded and grades according to her own answers and not the creativity of the students. she is a tough grader and does not answer directly your questions, but dances around them or"gets back to them" which she never does. do not take her class.

Comment:

worst professor ever. i don't mind doing the readings but she expects way too much. and then she tells you that you're wrong when you try to talk in class. it's impossible. if you value your happiness, don't take her.

She is very interesting full of info and a very nice lady. She tries to appeal to everyone in the class, even if you have not had a philosophy class before. I would recommend the class and this professor.

I am a A/B student and I got a D in her class even though I busted my butt. She was a lousy professor. Her tests were super hard and her grading style sucked. Would never take her again.

Comment:

She is a wealth of knowlege and insight, but I think she needs to find her source and open up to the class more. She seems closed off, but I'd love to know what she knows. Just drink a LOT of coffee before class ;-)

Comment:

she is a kind of hard, and the class was extremely boring. she is, however, very knowledgable on what she teachers. the text is extremely hard to understand, and it isn't cleareed up very much in class discussion. i never, EVER sleep in class, but in this class i did haha.

Comment:

really nice woman... really knows her stuff... but boring as hell. I wouldn't recommend for an 8:30 or early class. If you like loads of reading and are into the subject matter take her, if not, don't even think about it.

Comment:

She was an extremely boring teacher. If it wasn't for her being absent for a month, the class would have been hell. It's a lot of reading and hard to understand. Don't take a class with her at 830 in the morning.

Comment:

Chinese Culture is the most boringest class ever. Don't be fooled, this class is actually ancient Chinese Lit and you have to read an insane amount of material. The art section is easier, but the lit book is extremely hard to understand.

This is one of the most boring teachers i've ever had, plus i had the honor of having her at 8:30 in the morning. If there weren't any participation grade, i could have easily skipped every class and still passed easily
