awesome lectures. buck the tests. SO HARD. papers were very easy but seriously.. worst midterm and final I've ever taken. she wants you to know the material inside and out, very specific. her Q's are VERY tricky. lecture is a must!

She was a fantastic lecturer who is clearly very passionate about the subject she teaches. In order to pass the class you must go to lecture and the discussion classes. It is also of your best interest to take your time on her tests and think critically about what she is asking for. Also, I would recommend not thinking the material is easy.

Shes a cool lady, but she is hard. her tests are out of control and she admits to it and i think like the fact. papers are graded comparitivly which is not fair.

Professor Mullin was a great professor. She clearly is passionate about communication and her lectures are very structured. Don't miss her class, or else you will miss a lot of information. Everyone thinks that her tests are hard, but they are not any harder than any other class. Just know all the key terms and know how to apply them. Easy A

This was my last pre-requisite class with Dolly, and I can honestly say I thoroughly enjoyed her as a professor and will miss her lectures dearly. However, I will not miss her tests. Despite her effective lectures, her tests were unfair. Rather than being about actually knowing the material, it was about knowing how to take Dolly's tests.

Definitely a great class especially if youre thinking about this major. Notes are organized and she clearly explains everything. 2 papers, 1 midterm, and final. People say her tests are tricky but the things is, you just have to apply the concepts to examples and that's it. Not that hard, just study. Overall, I would take her again if I can! :)

I have now had Dolly for 2 of my pre-comm classes and loved her both times. She is one of the most helpful professors out there who really makes time for her students. Her lectures are beautifully organized. Her midterms/finals are definitely tricky, but she expects her students to have thorough knowledge of the material. 1 more class with her! :)

She's freaken awesome, had her for all my pre-comm classes! Most inspiring professor I ever had! Book is required but most questions are from lecture, and they are tested IN-DEPTH because she expects you to know it inside/out given the fact that she lectures about it. Going to miss her enthusiasm and lectures! Too bad she doesn't teach upper div :(

Took Comm 1 and 88 with Mullin and I pulled B-'s. The other two premajor classes I took taught by other professors, I got A's. SAME EFFORT PUT INTO ALL FOUR CLASSES, TOO. I think that says a lot. Her tests are ridiculous and they don't help students learn. Most ppl end up second guessing what they've learned and thus do poorly. Not cool.

Took her for Comm1 and Comm88 and I love her lectures. She makes examples that you remember and for an 8am class she kept me awake. Her test are "tricky" but she really wants you to be able to apply the material which I like. She is helpful during office hrs also

Shes such a great lecturer/prof this class was at 8am and i never once fell asleep because she is so enthusiastic and interesting! Tests were hard ,detailed and tricky. Go to lecture and take good notes and read the book. Grade based on 2 papers, midterm, final, section, and experiment participation. I actually did better on my tests than papers.

Great professor, she is really nice and fun. Class is detail-oriented but you know exactly what to expect on the tests. Some say exams are tricky but they aren't- just read the ? carefully. Weekly section hw is easy& just for credit. Research paper is straight forward and very structured. Annie is the best TA, hope for her. Good class overall

A fun, easygoing professor. Tests are difficult but if you read each question thoroughly it shouldn't be a problem. HOWEVER her TA Michael Mangus is atrocious, and in a class where a TA's grade on papers can make or break you, he spells disaster. He is revoltingly full of himself, with a tangible air of superiority, and very unwilling help.

Professor Mullin is a very good professor and you can tell she loves what she does. She is very personable and willing to help her students. Lecture was entertaining even though it was at 8 AM. Her tests are very hard, but the material is interesting. Only bad thing about this class was her TA Michael Mangus. If you get him you're screwed!!!

This class really isn't as hard as it sounds. The concepts are extremely easy to know for the test, you just have to be able to apply them to real life. She is very interesting and is the only professor that made an 8am bearable and actually keep my interest the whole time. Love her

Two essays required, both required an average amount of research but were very doable. The exams are not as hard as people make them out to be. She is very detailed in her questions which can be tricky at times but you just have to actually read the textbook and attend lecture to do fine. Class requires a lot of studying but its not overwhelming.

She is very clear and organized in lecttures, but her test are difficult. they're multiple choice but w/ confusing options b/c many of the answers could be correct...or not. You have to knoe your stuff forward and backward. The grades are pretty evenly distributed complete with As Bs Cs Ds and Fs, it's competitive.

A difficult course! Not recommended for incoming Freshmen. Attend lectures if you want to do well on the exams. Her tests are tricky and requires lots and lots of studying. She is a very nice lady. She sometimes tells stories during lecture and it makes it less boring. Didn't really learn anything from the course. not interested in communications.

This class is VERY hard, but you have to pass it to get into comm major. My advice go to office hours every week, she doesn't care, I did this and she was very nice and helpful no matter how much help I needed. And just check in with your TA about your paper every step of the way. I did this and got a b+ in the class. Good Luck!

Definitey the professor to make someone want to switch out of the COMM major

Honestly I didn't learn anything from this class. Her lectures seemed to be so straight foward but when you take the exam, it is nothing like that. The tests are nearly impossible to do even ok on. If you are not a comm major, DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS!

Dolly Mullin is a genuinely sweet lady and a fantastic lecturer. Which is lucky because attending lecture is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. The majority of her very tricky tests are from the lecture material but it's still necessary to read the book. The 2 papers are easy and interesting to write. It's a fantastic class, but does require dedication and work.
