PS106EA . Freeman L A 5 Months Ago

Kind but super disorganized which obviously impacts the organization and structure of the course.

She's very kind but sometimes disorganized. Overall the class content is easy to follow if you pay attention and are willing to engage.

PS106EA . Freeman L A 1 Year, 5 Months Ago

Lectures were very bland but had a lot of information packed in them. She made the final take home and said it was possible to complete in 3 hours--writing 1250 words for one big essay and then 1200 for 3 small essays is not it.

PS106EA . Freeman L A 2 Years Ago

Im not gonna lie this is one of the worst professors, I've ever come across throughout my time in UCSB, and Ive seen some pretty bad ones. (e.g. Nall, Moosebreiger, and Felicity Stone-Richards. Don't take this class, and also don't take any class with Laffy Taffy.

PS106EA . Freeman L A 9 Years Ago

This professor is terrible. Her lecture slides are a joke. She very clearly just copies huge amount of text from Wikipedia and puts it into a powerpoint along with stealing other people's slides which is very obvious because she does not change the format at all. Further, her slides are riddled with typos and impossible to follow.

POLS173 . Freeman L A 6 Months Ago

Professor Freeman is a sweet, knowledgeable, and passionate teacher who loves her subject and does her best to teach her class. She is not tech savvy and often has trouble when it comes to canvas and lectures. The homework is light & the worst part of the class is the readings and the exams/essays. But I would take her class again in a heart beat!
