Original student reviews · all captured dates
Class consisted of Madison Propaganda (i.e. why is Madison the best school?), and grading is utterly arbitrary. Class was easy, but she assigned papers and other pointless assignments and then proceeded to mark off points with no indication of why. Fellow student didn't turn in paper, got 8/10. I turned in, 8/10. Horrible at communicating. Avoid.Rate My Professors ↗
