COMMUNICATIONS . Metzger M J 4 Months Ago

Took her for Comm 174 and loved the class, she's a passionate professor and really cares about her students. Lectures were not posted online and primarily verbal, attendance was mandatory and worth 15% but we got 2 absences. 2 exams were the rest of the grade and MC/free response and open notes. Really enjoyable class and amazing prof!!!

Super tricky class where three (50 minutes long) tests make up your grade. If you are not a good test taker, this will be tough. I honestly felt very lost in her lectures. The class presents many concepts but provides little time to completely understand them. Chapters are long and detailed, I would definitely recommend reading before lectures.

She is great lecturer & if you go to class, then understanding content, homework, & studying for tests isn't hard. She gives helpful study guides & lays out exactly how to succeed. There's 3 tests (non-cumulative) and offers an optional retake for 1 of the first 2. Homework graded on completion & she's flexible w/ office hours bc she wants to help.
