I took this class for a 3 week summer course. Really straight forward and easy to follow, but make sure to attend EVERY lecture. Book is good for supplementary reading to clear up any uncertainties from class. 1 midterm, 1 final, and other small assignments. Tough grader on everything written but the tests are straightforward.

I took her for Summer Comm/Conflict. The midterm was straightforward, but there was some confusion about what would be on the final because the study guide wasn't as precise. The course moved quickly, but she was always willing to answer questions. Don't have to do ALL of the reading, but some of it IS on the tests. Highly Recommend!

A great Prof. Took her for 3wk summer course, found it to be easy. Do have to keep up w/reading, but test are straightforward from lecture and bk. If you attend lectures which is a must and do the reading you'll be fine. I didn't study too much for the midterm or final but attended class and read the bk and got an A.

Take her 3-week conflict class! She's super cool and this was sooo easy. You get comprehensive study guide for midterm and final, and have to keep a daily log and write a 1-2 page paper on it. She's great and listens to students and makes sure they aren't overwhelmed.

Meyers is incredibly kind. She took a topic that could easily be dull and made it genuinely interesting. The testing and assignment grading were very fair and the lectures were engaging and felt highly applicable to real-world scenarios. Test questions were nothing unexpected (she has a study guide). 3 discussion posts that were not bad.

My first time having Prof Myers and I loved her so much that I signed up for her two classes in Fall! Material is super digestible and applicable, so much so that lectures aren't too boring. Grade consists of 2 easy pop quizzes, 2 in-class activities, weekly discussion posts on PackBack, and a mc midterm and final. One of the best profs out there!
