Quality 1/5Difficulty 3/5
I took her Writing Fellows course. I consistently found her to be demeaning to students, treating them at a high school or lower level in class when we were also expected to be independently working with first years outside of class time.

It's the Writing Fellows class. It's alright. Research paper is tough, readings are interesting & meaningful with a few notable exceptions. The section with the assistant director of the program might be easier.

Emily is genuinely dedicated to her students and cares about both their academic and personal success. She is kind and available for help, and worked hard to create a real community of friends out of our Writing Fellows course.
