Quality 2/5Difficulty 4/5
Is she a good prof? It's hard to tell. She is undeniably a brilliant, smart woman. On the other hand, she can be arrogant and rude, especially to those with questions. She seems to pick a few she likes and stick with them. Harsh grader for sure, but you have to be in the J-School. Very poor availability and time management
