She is uncaring, and the way she speaks to us in class and writes her announcements (aggressive & rude: and she deleted them later!!!) demonstrates a poor attitude. Her lectures are biased and you must write papers according to her opinions to pass (lack of free thought). Don't take her classes!!!",

    "comment": "Although she is passionate about what she teaches, she relies heavily on opinion and over-simplifying or ignoring opposing viewpoints. This makes it incredibly hard to write essays against those viewpoints. She also expects us to know more than what is taught in class or in the readings. ",

She'll guide you through topics but independent work gets you the most out of the class. I've taken two classes with her, and I see her as a friend as well as a professor. 10/10",

Bashes the Trump family any opportunity she can along with anti-vaxxers. Very closed minded politically and made me feel uncomfortable to ask questions. If you have the exact same opinions of her, you will enjoy the class.",
