ENVS60 . Dowdy K L 1 Year, 4 Months Ago

Kelsey is knowledgeable, passionate, and focused on learning. ES60 has a lot of material but it isn't complicated, just a lot to memorize. Kelsey also took students' opinions into consideration which made the course better

For ES 60. It could have been so interesting but was just so boring. She's really nice but it feels like she talks about nothing for most of the lecture and the slides had little info. One midterm and final. The midterm was not at all like what she told us to study & the written questions were weird. It felt like a "how good can I BS this" exam

Prof Dowdy was probably the best professor I've had. She is really engaging and teaches really interesting material that is relevant. I never thought chemistry would be my favorite subject at this school. There is assigned textbook reading but you don't actually have to do it because it isn't on tests. Interesting and pretty easy A
