This class is both easy and useful. As long as you do the assignments you get the credit. She gives you incredibly valuable information and feedback and is super accessible. Takes time to truly get to know each student and personally looks over and grades all of the word she assigns. If you have the opportunity - take her class!

I had Prof V for Grad School/Job Prep in the spring of 2024 and honestly the class could not have been more useful OR more easy to pass. As long as you do the work- which you will be thanking yourself in the future for doing- you will pass. She really wants students to have a realistic and accurate perception of their options in the future.

Professor Vanderwaker was really sweet and genuinely wants to help her students find their path. This class was absurdly easy and I would definitely recommend it. Put in thought and turn stuff in on time to get an easy A. Peer group meetings were annoying but easy. Attendance not mandatory or necessary to get an A. Final was a short mock interview.

LOVE her so much. she really cares about her students and will accommodate you if you need it. she made me feel safe and made sure i did well on her exams. i will say, your grade does depend on your TA though so pray they are nice. (anth 162)

she's nice but your entire grade is based off tests. all hand written bluebook exams. she used to let students submit an essay but now she's making us hand write it in person. so now we have three bluebook exams to take in person. it's honestly difficult and hard to manage with my other classes. there isn't any other work to bring your grade up

Professor Vanderwarker was so sweet! It was clear that she genuinely cares a lot about this subject. It was only graded off a midterm, final, and a mini research paper so definitely make sure you study for those tests, but don't sweat it too much as they were really easy if you just go to lecture.
