She was TERRIBLE with communication to both students and TA's. Instructions were NEVER clear and assignments were SUPER difficult to understand. TA's were just as confused as students - avoid this professor at ALL COSTS!!Rate My Professors ↗

Her seminars have been the highlight of my week! She is so knowledgeable in misinformation and disinformation and her involvement in research in this field is so inspiring. She is an easy grader, kind, very responsive to emails. She is not the best with technology, but it's not something that disadvantages students at all. She is super sweet!Rate My Professors ↗

I had intro to strat com w her. Lectures were boring and insufferable. She'd ramble on about an old ad campaign but was so quiet that we could barely hear. Even if you didn't come to class, everything important you needed to know for the exam was written on the PP. Easy to mentally check out when nothing of substance is added verbally in lecture.Rate My Professors ↗

The class structure is not conducive to learning. We're assigned weekly readings, have to submit discussion q's, and then classmates lead the entire class discussion?? I'm sorry, but I'm paying to get instructed by a PROFESSOR. No PPT lectures, nothing. Just readings and occasional comments. She obviously doesn't care to teach. Worst class by far.Rate My Professors ↗

Show up, speak a few times, submit work on time and you will pass. Readings are interesting and based on current events. Sometimes discussions can get repetitive. Grades are determined from a bunch of smaller assignments that may seem confusing at first, but I promise that they aren't that bad at all. Had textbooks but I rarely read them.Rate My Professors ↗

Professor Young Mie is a very smart woman, but has no respect for her students. She was 30 minutes late to our exam, never apologized, but instead scolded us the following lecture for not respecting "her time." She has a lot to learn as a professor. I would not recommend taking a class with her if you want to feel respected as a student.Rate My Professors ↗
