Worst professor I've had and miserable to be around. Mouthy and opinionated when asking for help in office hours and tests are most of ur grade but with no clear idea of what's being tested theres no way to prepare….easy to see why she got fired from her last school and honestly hope the same happens here tbh. Wouldn't recommend any course by her

Shes has high expectations of students when it comes to entry level knowledge and will use a lot philosophical terms in lecture without elborating on their meaning. Overall I found office hours to be a waste of time and lectures to be unhelpful. Difficult to comprehend and get a good grade in unless you have a graduate level understanding.

Tests are large portion of the grade But no guidelines for material being tested on Graded IClicker quizzes based on the reading Attendence mandatory and taken from them Low test averages No meaningful curve to the low averages Would be a great course with a different professor

Teaching style is bland. Slides are basically summary of the readings. Readings are expected to be done before class and there's not a lot, but they are all dense as hell and honestly very time-consuming without good guidance. Office hours are genuinely a nightmare, she doesnt say anything and expects you to have excellent arguments already somehow

Test are 50% of the grade. she barely felt like making a study guide and just told us to known everything we had learned. Everyone did poorly but a few people so she of course blamed the class, makes sense. she goes over way to much material way to quickly, really unejoyable class and she does not make it any better.

I was really excited about this class, and did find the course material very interesting, but unfortunately the teaching style basically ruined it for me. The TA was an extremely harsh grader, the readings were incredibly dense, and her lectures were so dry they barely helped. The final was also the most stressful test I've ever taken.
