Dr. Gray is hilarious and highly intelligent; very enthusiastic about learning. She's also very nice and helpful. Reading is pretty much essential, as she asks questions out of the book that she didn't mention in lecture. She did not assign any real "homework" for my class.

Dr.Gray is a great teacher. Incredibly helpful while not willing to put up with a lot of crap. Sure her stories get off-subject, but they are nonetheless totally interesting. She even let me reschedule a test due to the fact that I had just had a baby days prior to the exam. I got an A in that class. Love her!

Dr. Gray is really caring. I took her physical anthropology class online and it was fairly easy. I learned a lot and all the work is little quizzes and a chapter review quiz per week. You will need a textbook with the inquizitive code.

Professor Gray is an amazing teacher. I took her class over the fall, and it was easy. You have to read a lot to pass This coursequizzes and homework due once a week. There are no makeup quizzes, so you better not forget every time they are due. I highly recommend this professor.

I am a sophomore in high school and took this class online during summer. This class was so easy. Most of the work involved reading and completing quizzes and reviews through the blackboard. Dr. Grey uses interactive software which really help you to understand the material. You can retake midterms & finals up to 3 times keeping the best grade.

Fairly easy class, expect a large amount of reading with Inquizitive assignments to follow. She gives you an unlimited amount of tries on each chapter, and takes your highest (including 100%). Multiple tries on exams, including final exam, takes the highest score. Often checks on the class and is truly caring!

I've taken Dr gray many times. She is someone I still thinking about and tell stories about. Seeing that recently she got a lot of bad grading is sad, I'm sure it's because she expects students to do their work and she is a tough grader. I bet all the reviews from June 5th 2022 were from the same, sexist person. My experience was pleasant.

Alexis Gray has a passion for the subject of anthropology. She is an energetic lecturer. It is unfortunate she is not very professional in her class conduct which is distracting from the subject material and she has an unclear grading criteria for assignments. I recommend to take a different professor for the class if possible.

She's a really easy grader AND gives you reminders of things that are close to being due (if you're somewhat behind). You don't really need the book. 10/10 recommend for an easy & interesting course. Plus she's super nice and responds quick to emails.

TAKE THIS CLASS!!!!! It's literally the easiest thing ever, you have 3-4 assignments a week that take maybe around 45 mins to an hour to complete. Not each, it takes 45 mins to an hour to complete ALL of your work for the week. You also have 3 multiple-choice exams but those are easy as well. TAKE THIS CLASS FOR UR SCIENCE REQUIREMENT!!!
