Dominique is a great professor, who is very concerned about her students. Two thumbs up.Rate My Professors ↗
all of Dominique's classes are awesome!!Rate My Professors ↗
Not a good class. Not a good teacher. I thought this was supposed to be a good program. Not impressed with the professors so far.Rate My Professors ↗
Dominique is helpful and willing to work with you, but she doesn't really seem to know much about advertising or PR, so the meetings don't help that much. She kind of talks in circles.Rate My Professors ↗
Dominique is one of my favorite profs. She has excellent experiance and knows how the real world operates. If her directions come off a bit vague I think it's because she doesn't want to limit your ideas. Dominique is also great at meeting outside class and she'll help you out with reccomendations and proof-reading.Rate My Professors ↗
