She doesn't care about her students. At all. She scheduled office hours during a TA's discussion section and when asked would not schedule secondary office hours. Don't try talking to her after class or she will blow you off and probably won't even remember your name! Her lectures are decent but I don't think she likes students.

slides are not organized and are all over the place. Lectures are boring, even though the subject is interesting. Just read the textbook, honestly. Halfway through the quarter, I just stopped going because the lecture wasn't helping me learn. Read the textbook or just take another ecology at the same time, and you'll do fine for exams.

She is very very kind and takes feedback seriously. The content itself I found very intuitive and easy- and a lot of review from lower division eemb courses. The midterms were more than fair, and the final was not cumulative. She also gives lots of hints during lecture about what exactly is going to be on the test. Study, and you'll def get an A

I highly recommend this class for anyone needing upper division bio credits. The class is really manageable and the workload is not bad at all. The tests are very straightforward and all the info needed is on the slides. Go to lecture because she always drops hints about exactly what she will test on and its been consistent every time. Love her

This class can be a bit boring and there is a decent amount of material. She is an alright lecturer and can be a tad annoying at times. The class is graded based off three non-cumulative exams which are decently easy if you study, online quizzes, and homework. Make sure to pay attention in lecture and reading is helpful for a better understanding.

Amazing and funny professor! Her grading criteria was straightforward with hw assignments being 40% of the grade and exams (3) being 60%. Her lectures emphasized what would be on the tests so I suggest paying attention. I found exams to be based on lecture slides but reading should still be done to solidify info. Practice exams are super helpful!

Professor Marsh was a good professor. She gave us slides that you need to fill in during lecture, but towards the end, she gave us filled in slides so you don't have to go. Tests are based directly from the lecture slides. Homework was fairly easy, just an assignment once a week. And she gives out candy.

Unprofessional, rude, doesn't take student suggestions, doesn't post slides

Prof Marsh is very understanding. Her lectures outline the points in a pretty broad sense (for what you need to know on exams and quizzes), so I suggest reading the text book to get a deeper understanding of the material. Also use flashcards!!!! Physical ones!!! they helped me pull my grade from a low B to an A.

I really enjoyed her. She did not always explain concepts in the best way, but she had to go through a lot of material. She definitely cares about the students, and always replied to my emails. Her tests were a little difficult, but she would take questions off if too many students got it wrong. She was overall a good professor.

Better than Low, but that's not saying much. There were small issues in the class that will hopefully be better next time. Study the slides and only use the textbook for explanations. There are a couple of very specific questions that are taken from the slides. HW is busywork, but helps your grade. Very small curve. Do the extra credit!

Marsh was an amazing professor for bio, especially after surviving Low. She is clearly passionate about the content and cares a lot for the students. Her class has 3 non-cumulative exams and weekly quizzes/writing assignments. Pay a lot of attention in lecture since she drops hints and such.
