Overall a very interesting and informative class. Ms. Hight is accessible outside of class and always willing to help whoever needs it. Very understanding and willing to work with you. This was a six week class and she offered 3 separate extra credit opportunities. Readings and discussion questions every night and a final project. Participation req

The material was constructed in an interesting way, even if lectures are a little long/boring. You don't have to read the textbook to do well, but it definitely helps. Grading is lenient and professor works with students.

Take her! This course is very interesting and easy and Prof Hight is extremely nice and caring! She's willing to offer help outside the class which makes assignments and papers a lot easier. Take SOC 120 with her if you need a 4 cr social science class.

Prof is super nice and clearly cares about the material she's teaching about. Super understanding when it comes to personal issues that could affect your classwork or cause you to need an extension. Interesting lectures, good lecturer. Overall I recommend the prof and the class.
