FAMST101A . Wasow A 20 Days Ago

Very passionate, very nice. SO disorganized! A lot of readings, speaks with so much jargon. Super inspiring, was an amazing course, but puts a lot of pressure on students. You NEED to go to lecture. Some of the materials are a bit disturbing, doesn't use content warnings. I recommend taking a class with her, just be aware its not an easy A

She wasn't bad like I thought. Her lectures are a bit long, if you don't really like silent film then you will be falling asleep. She's easy to talk to if you go up to her. Really understanding of mistakes, just talk to her. Gives extra credit

Avoid if possible. Creative project, research paper, and final exam all due in one week at end, 12 page study guide provided only few days before. Got annoyed that we werent participating enough so made a wheel with all our names to call on people to talk. Would go off on random tangents for 20 min.

Professor Wasow is nice, but very disorganized and does not have a good grasp of teaching. Her lecture slides have no text, and she doesn't follow them, so there is no use in note-taking. There was no syllabus until Week 3, and she didn't even release final information until the day prior. She does the bare minimum and this class is to avoid.

I don't often rate professors, but I guarantee you this is the worst class I'd ever taken in my life, being my first ever F. The professor taught as if a toddler was teaching. There was inhuman amounts of material and a 1 hour screening during our final? I was instantly failed because my final essay offended her. Please, save yourself the trouble.

Was extremely disorganized and boring. Lectures were mandatory but she rarely ever put up slides to follow along to and when she “lectures” she rambles on about nothing making it hard to take notes. Refused to give us a study guide for the final for some reason so nobody knew what to study. Genuinely the worst film professor I've ever taken.
