This woman is honestly the most boring teacher in the world. I had to drink so much coffee just to stay awake during her class. Though she is a very easy teacher, who offers a lot of extra credit, so its basically impossible to fail to her class. Bad thing is that she takes attendance so you actually HAVE to stay there for the terrible lectures.

I've had Prof. Haupt for 3 classes now: POLS 101, POLS 121, and GLST 101. My grade kept increasing as I took more classes. Yes, she's a harsh grader— but quiz answers can be found in lectures/videos assigned. The questions on the final are the same as those given on quizzes lol. Would take more of her classes even though she makes me a bit anxious!

Professor Haupt means well but I did not like her teaching style. Lectures are long and heavy podcasts are 40 min long. Class is based on memorization rather than learning. The final week we had an essay exam midterm final exam Exams are remotely proctored. Her lectures are really long slide shows and she just reads off of them. Take someone else

Though Mrs. Haupt is understanding, this class was challenging, especially if you missed a lecture. The material is good, but entails tons of reading, studying, & LOTS of note taking. For me, it seemed like tests were more based on memory rather than understanding. Lastly, it is a lot of hrs for summer, & is can be hard to keep up with.

Vibes were good. There's some material, but it's really not a hard A. Prof's cool and keeps it real with the news. Finally get the whole Trump thing now lol.

One of the most useful classes I've taken. I feel way more confident talking politics now. Class is fast-paced, but super organized. Lots of topics and (mostly) interesting videos. Lectures are concise. Textbook is just ok. Haupt seemed strict at first, but is actually very accommodating. Lowest grades are dropped. Plenty extra credit. Can't miss.

The class felt very skewed Left, focusing too much on identity politics and critiques of America without balance for conservative views. Overwhelming for a 101-level course. Not the fair intro I expected. I'd recommend students look for another teacher.

Really interesting class, especially the lectures. It's honestly a great class to grasp the basics about today's politics and political divide. Also, I did not find this class to be biased, but rather neutral. Exams are open notes. Study a little, pay attention to citations in your Discussion posts and then it's an easy A.

A valuable class just EXTREMELY fast passed, you will need to study A LOT outside of class to really fully understand the material because of how fast the class goes. Exams are composed of multiple choice and short essays questions which in my opinion are more about based on memorization. Overall a nice teacher though.

Overall I really enjoyed this class. Professor Haupt is very understanding and gives very clear grading criteria. The most challenging part of this class was the essays which were just time consuming. To do good on them, just use A LOT of CITATIONS and you'll be good. She also offers a lot of extra credit and is very gracious when grading.

Dr. Haupt is an amazing professor. She provides you all the materials you need to succeed in her class and is always willing to assist students. She teaches with so much passion, you see her eyes light up when she talks about a topic she really likes. She is very accommodating to students. She seems serious but she's funny and kind.

Very difficult to work with. In every essay you are required to cite everything that isn't common knowledge which is up to her judgement. Therefore you have to cite every single sentence in order to get full credit. Makes you buy her textbook online, the book is okay but course can definitely go with out it. Her lectures are boring.
