Excellent professor; her teaching style is easy to follow and learn from. Attendance is both mandatory and not mandatory, but there are pop quizzes each week to see who is there, and the two lowest grades are dropped. Group project, no mid-term or final exam, and it gives a ton of extra credit opportunities.CRIM1100 2026-04-13 15:45:15 +0000 UTC
Best class I've taken. No midterm or final, lectures are very engaging, teacher is incredibly supportive and gives great feedback and clear advice. Grading is very fair and she offers extra credit. Readings are important but workload is very manageable. Could not recommend her class enoughCRIM1100 2026-04-10 14:25:30 +0000 UTC
