Verda is a very sweet professor and she has helpful insight into the industry. The class material can sometimes be boring, but not difficult. 4 quizzes, and then a group simulation. I would recommend taking this class with her for sure!Rate My Professors ↗

She's great! It's clear she really really cares about her students and has a heart of gold. You will do well if you show up and do all of your quizzes.Rate My Professors ↗
Verda is an awesome teacher, her grading criteria is clear, and as long as you try, it should be an easy A/AB. DO GOOD ON THE QUIZZES!! have to go to class to get 20/20. Very little homework, and a larger group simulation at the end is super fun and the most fun I've had in a class project. Would highly recommend!!Rate My Professors ↗
Verda is an awesome teacher, and she cares a LOT about her students. Her grading criteria is clear, and as long as you try, it should be an easy A/AB. Most lectures aren't mandatory, but it helps in order to do well in the quizzes. Very little homework, and a larger group simulation at the end. Would highly recommend!!Rate My Professors ↗
Verda was amazing. Had her last semester, and she somehow teaches a course that is easy, but not boring. Wish she still taught another class that I needed to take this semester.Rate My Professors ↗
