WRIT2 . 7 Years Ago

Olivia Walling made it very clear from the beginning that she did not like me. Shes condescending toward students and gets annoyed when students ask questions. Tbh she just doesnt know how to lecture undergrads, dont take WRIT2 with this professor, it was a mess.

WRIT109 . 7 Years Ago

How should I put this? The course itself is not hard, I mean just a couple of papers, however, her personality will make this harder than Calculus courses. A lot of "Office Politics", yeah, antagonizing, bullying, and being really mean. She expects you know everything, will be angry if u ask "some" questions, like to make people feel bad

Professor Walling is very knowledgable on what she teaches and definitely gives criticism that helps improve your writing. Attendance is mandatory. She offers a ton of office hours and one on one appointments. If you don't attend, you won't pass. Some assignments were unclear and she gets kinda irritated when students are confused.

WRIT109L . 9 Years Ago

Earning an A- in her class was one of my most prized accomplishments. She is tough as nails and demanding. Sink or Swim, the choice is yours. Attend office hours with pre-prepared questions. If you can apply her criticisms without being distracted, you may be able to succeed in her courses. Do the reading, prepare, ask on-point questions, & work.

Terrible lecturer. Directly reads off of her slides. Wouldn't even attend class if attendance wasn't mandatory. The grading that the TA provided was bonkers. Very stupid class imo, a lot of the material is common sense labeled into different ethical frameworks. Extremely boring lecturer.
