Currently taking Design & Graphics with her, it's halfway through the semester and I have a 100 on every single assignment so far with little effort. She's not a particularly good teacher in the sense that you won't learn much in class, but it's a good class to be creative and get an easy A.ARTG5311 2017-02-22 14:34:46 +0000 UTC
She's extremely kind and one of my favorite professors. Very knowledgeable on the PR field and will always help you if you fall behind. Allows a TON of rewrites. WARNING: she can get EXTREMELY boring, especially at 9:15am. AND you have a lot of down time.PRPRIN 2012-03-28 15:34:59 +0000 UTC
If you need an easy A, go for it, otherwise, complete waste of time. Shes not a BAD teacher, she just is borderline okay. Easy grader, but barely gives any guidelines for assignments so unless you care enough to learn indesign on your own, you'll leave knowing just as much as you came it with.DESIGGRAP 2009-04-24 13:09:21 +0000 UTC
Great teacher. Gladys is incredibly nice and very knowledgeable about PR. I would really recommend taking her classes.JRN425 2009-04-23 22:53:24 +0000 UTC
She made the class interesting and brought in excellent cases and videos.PR3118 2008-12-28 22:07:32 +0000 UTC
Design & Graphics is the easiest class EVER! You probably have to be in a coma not to pass it. Some of the projects are pretty cool but she barely gives you any direction so if you like to do independent work you'll really like this class.JRNU611 2007-04-18 00:39:27 +0000 UTC
Professor McKie is one of the nicest teachers I've had. The intro PR class was pretty easy and we were allowed to have a little fun on the final project. She genuinely likes teaching and interacting with the students. I can't believe NU tried to force the McKie's out.JRN425 2008-04-29 16:02:57 +0000 UTC
Very knowledgeable about the field of Public Relations. In order to take full advantage of the material, you must engage yourself and be attentive. If not, it is easy to fall behind and not learn much.JRN425 2006-11-05 19:11:25 +0000 UTC
