Professor Taylor knows the work she assigns is extremely stress inducing and UNREASONABLE but she does not care. She loves to hear herself talk, gives extremely boring lectures, 1 assignment a week that takes hours. Before even being done with an assignment she'll start talking about the next one. Leaving all students confused and stressed.

Fall 2021. I was nervous bc we use STATA which is statistical software but Taylor made STATA fun and interesting. She is passionate about statistics and it is easy to follow along with her lectures, very organized and engages students to participate in class. Quizzes online each week were easy. The assignments were not bad especially with TA help

She has so much knowledge to offer and it was such an interesting course to take! I do think that the units material had a lot of work, but the quizzes + discussions were easy points. The 3 papers were fine as long as you carefully follow the instructions. She ended up giving us extra credit too, I definitely recommend taking her!

Nothing to complain about for the lectures, although a bit repetitive. The discussion posts and quizzes are easy points as long as you do them. However, the difficulty of this course comes with the grading of the three writing assignments. Prof. Taylor claims they are graded harsher to compensate for the easiness of the weekly assignments.

Avoid. Never took SOC155 with this professor. Never. I'm good at writing, but the three assignments really hits me. I never received any detailed written feedback from my TA, and all of the TAs are harsh grader. I don't know who can get A in this class.

Lecture credit is mandatory, but I feel like I gained more from her posted lectures from covid rather than in person. She goes on tangents a lot and loves to hear herself talk but the overall class is interesting. The grading criteria of "excellent" isn't clear on essays. Weekly quizzes and 3 papers
