Loved Professor Fry. Her class is so interesting that she made me love history. The students at HCC typically are of very poor quality and this has gotten worse. That makes class unbearable sometimes - the stupidity, ignorance, and refusal to put any effort into learning. Once I realized this, I learned to ignore the others and enjoyed the class!!!

Professor Fry was a nice and informative teacher. I work full time and attend school full time, and this class requires a lot of time (in and out of class)5 to fully assimilate everything about US history in order to understand the very in dept and specific questions on her test. While the home home work was easy expect a lot of it.

Prof. Fry was a great teacher! One of my favorites at HCC. She is a bit harder on grades but compared to other profs I've had she's really fair and easy going, you just need to pay attention to what she asks and read the book. (MANDATORY, but you can buy it for .50 in the library, amazing) Pay attention and read and you'll enjoy her class. :)

A teacher that made me understand history even though i hate learning history in general. One big pointer is that you have to write every single word she says and shows(mainly videos) because her tests are exact copy of what she presents. Extra credit is really hard to get but its not impossible and i advice every one to read the books she assigns.
