BME/CHEM/MEDPHYS 750
Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
One of the best professors I have seen. She puts effort making files, her assignments are fair, and her presentations are very organized. Her expectations are fair, and she makes sure her explanation is clear. Her presence is one of the nicest things I have seen in UW Madison. I wish there were more people like her in academia.
