Professor Anderson is one of those professors that make you think, "wow, I really wish every other professor of mine would care about me and be as accommodating". I highly recommend meeting with her beyond class so she gets a better understanding of who you are as a student and from there will accommodate you as need. AMAZING!Rate My Professors ↗
Would definitely recommend this course. Professor Anderson is very passionate about what she is teaching. She makes the lectures very engaging and interesting, they feel much shorter than they are. The papers were always assigned 2 weeks before the deadline and the prompts/rubric were very clear and transparent. Exams were not bad at all either.Rate My Professors ↗
Would definitely recommend. Clearly outlines what will be on exams, super easy as long as you go to lecture and look at the study guide. Really like her teaching style, and I think her lecture's are super straight forward and productive.Rate My Professors ↗
Easy and doable. Kinda interesting speeches and writings. Most of the literature is written by Caucasians, I wish they diversify it in the future.Rate My Professors ↗
Professor Anderson is genuinely really nice and wants her students to succeed. You can get an A in the class by not reading any of the assigned readings easily. I would say though that lectures are kinda boring but this year is her first year of teaching. Easy Comm B or humanities credit.Rate My Professors ↗
Although I ended up getting an A, the lectures and course content was horrible. I got lucky with a really good TA, but Andersons' lectures are boring, condescending and she treats her students like children. Her policy will not even allow laptops in the lecture, which is frankly out of touch. The class might be better with a different prof.Rate My Professors ↗
