Great professor and a great course! Gina's lectures were interesting. The course was very easy to get an A. There were quizzes once a week which were very easy if you attended lecture. There were a few short papers throughout the semester, no exams. The class was very focused on LEARNING rather than scoring high on exams which was so refreshing.

I love Gina!!! She is so funny and really cares about her students. This class is not very hard but I know that she is graduating and probably won't be teaching it again

Gina was hilarious and gave great lectures. She used TopHat for attendance and questions throughout lecture. There are weekly quizzes but slides were always posted online. Overall, was an easy class for 4 credits! She was a personable and great teacher-- highly recommend!

Every day I looked forward to coming to Professor Longo's Social Psych class. I always felt inspired and excited, and after taking this class I know more about myself. She was extremely knowledgeable about the material and could give relevant examples for nearly every concept. Excellent lecturing skills that had me interested the whole time :)

Participation does not count for lecture but does count for discussion. She is a nice lady but a lot of material on the lecture slides is taken directly out of the textbook. Graded based off of two easy exams and a 10pg paper, easy A. The class has a very liberal viewpoint and those with conservative viewpoints are not accepted.

Great professor who really cares about the material she teaches. Just know that if you're taking social psychology it's glorified anthropology in the sense that political correctness and professors views are very clear. If you just accept that it's a great class and an easy A.
