Whatever Holly is paid is far too much. She does NOTHING but micromanage students (and clinical faculty who are way more knowledgable than her). Stop stalking us on the point :(Rate My Professors ↗

This professor is unorganized and waits until the last second to fix things on Canvas or otherwise. I'm sure she is busy and has lots to do, but don't teach a class if you cannot handle it then.Rate My Professors ↗

Holly was allegedly the professor for this course but I cannot say I ever even saw her. As a result, lectures are run by random people every week and are a ridiculous waste of everybody's afternoon. I expect better from a top 10 nursing school. Poor clinical placements to go along with this course, unsure if that's her fault though.Rate My Professors ↗

Would never recommend her. UW-Madison Nursing would be better off without her. Disorganized, defensive, often gives incorrect information, rude, no logical thinking, unfair are some ways to describe her teaching.Rate My Professors ↗

Holly basically speed runs every lecture she gives. When asked questions, she responds immediately often providing the wrong answer when she doesn't know the right one. When asking about the exam, grade won't change even when you show proof from her slides (that are often wrong) and book evidence. She doesn't explain anything when she lectures.Rate My Professors ↗
