Frankie Frank's lectures are really engaging. She's very knowledgeable and she'll answer any questions (even if they're completely off topic). However, her grader this semester at least was VERY harsh, so be prepared for that. I learned a lot from her lectures.Rate My Professors ↗
Great professor, passionate, online midterm/final. Super understanding, as long as you pay attention to class because slides aren't posted. It is also recommended to go to her office hours because she is very open, understanding, and kind.Rate My Professors ↗
Dr Frank is amazing! I was initially very intimidated by her course and her lecture style, however her passion and knowledge is so engaging and I learned way better with her than I could have imagined. There is one long paper that we slowly work at throughout the whole semester. Exams are online, very manageable if you read and take lecture notes.Rate My Professors ↗
Genuinely, Dr. Frank is the best professor I've ever had. Her lectures make me excited to go to an 8 am. I feel like I've learned so much!! She cares so much about her students and will do her best to make everyone understand the course material. This class is NOT politicized. We don't know her personal beliefs because she shares objective facts.Rate My Professors ↗
Professor Frank keeps her students engaged in lecture and makes very funny jokes. However, she forgets to realize students have other priotities that don't only revolve around her class. Attedance is the reason why I didn't pass her course but she didn't even take into consideration all the hard work I put into her class. Never Again!!!Rate My Professors ↗
Dr. Frank deserves 5/5 and is my favorite professor. I took her Law and Sexuality class and seminar—highly recommend if you're interested in gender, law, or sociology. Her lectures are engaging, but effort is required, especially for the final paper. Exams are low-stress if you prepare. She's supportive, gives great feedback, and is very accessible
