Would have preferred everything to not be put in the gradebook at the VERY end of the semester, as I was taken aback by her very harsh grading. Had an A the entire semester yet ended with a B. #Salty",

    "comment": "She's Nice enough,  but she never actually taught us anything. On Mondays she would zoom call a lecturer/writer from another school and they'd answer our questions. Then on Wednesdays she would make one of the students present the entire class. The assignments are relatively easy and lectures were mostly boring and pointless. ",

There is a lot of reading, and if you are not one who likes writing papers you will struggle as there are 6 reading responses and a final paper. But I would highly recommend to anyone interested in the topic.",

Prof. Jensen is so kind and has so much knowledge to share. She talked at length about many examples and was always eager to help clarify concepts. Can't wait to take another one of her classes!",
