Professor Alberta M. Gloria. You are a shame of UW-Madison, and being sarcastically teaching the course of CP 225 and being teaching the content of the disability-related content. What you did for McBurney Students were humiliating and were actually unfair. So, you have no right to advocate for McBurney or disability-related students, how dare you!

IDK about this professor but this class... girl. What was supposed to be an easy A ended up being a sisyphus-like battle to actually get full points. Even if you have a good discussion group (I pray for those who did not), your assigned TA is who really matters! Mine was a total hardass and we only got full points for a discussion section ONCE!

This class was a lot of reading. Almost your entire grade is based on groupwork, so it is very important that you get a group that is willing to talk. Dr. Gloria is very nit-picky about assignments and will take whole points off for minor organizational issues. Overall, the work wasn't too hard, just be detailed.

Super easy class IF you have a good discussion group. My TA grader, Greyson, was super nice but I have heard mixed reviews about TAs. There's a weekly zoom discussion. If you have members who don't participate, I could see this class being terrible. Follow the notes template and be mildly detailed and you will do fine. I thought class was easy A.

BEWARE do NOT take this class if you hate group projects. Basically your entire grade is based off of if you have a group that is willing to work or not. You have weekly 50 minute zooms that have a notes template you have to follow and the TA's are SO strict on grading. Class is easy but dependent on a good group.
