Graney is a cool teacher. Very liberal with a lot of knowledge. Can be a little flakey on giving tests/papers back but in general is well prepared for class. 3 tests, 2 papers in the class. All notes are posted on her website so you don't have to kill your hand writing. Tests aren't hard if you pay attention and study the notes.

Hard work is needed. She gives you history in a non b.s. way, completely raw and funny. She makes history, with her cursing and jokes, much more enjoyable. Assignments can be tedious writing, ask her what is looking for and answer all the questions. Read correlating chap before taking any quizzes and have the print out notes handy. Worked for me:)

She is an amazing professor, who wants her students to earn their grades. She gives weekly writing assigments and tests which she gives you plenty of time to complete. Class participation is a must.Simply a great professor!

Professor Graney is an amazing teacher for sure. Her WestCiv102 class is definitely a great class, and she makes everything so interesting! Just make sure you do all your work thoroughly and, dont miss alot of her classes because it will affect your grade. I have an A so far, only because i really tried my hardest. this isn't a class to be lazy in

She is the best History teacher that I have ever had. She makes a stand up session out of history, I mean comon ! Who does that =p .. This rating is like 3 semesters late but Prof. Graney probably wont mind. Its PMucci btw =] .. Lots of luck.. tests are fair, written assignments get graded really tough imo. Enjoy !

Prof Cat was a pretty cool professor. History tends to be dull at times but she always knew how to wake up her students. Her potty mouth and hilarious jokes made the time in class even better. Papers are tedious and exams can be a tad hard. But once she started doing reviews the course became easier.

The WORST TEACHER i ever had. Her tests are way to hard, you cant even study and get good grades. there isnt anyone that can get A in that class. She makes the exams and assigments seem like you are in yale. she isnt clear about the actual work either. you end up reading the chapters and the outline and still not passing her tests! do not take her

Makes history fun, gives outlines for tests and tons of extra credit, and is funny. The tests are hard and the writing assignments are long, but I'd still highly recommend her.

What is wrong with you people? I took Professor Graney for Western Civ II. Due to a family emergency, I was absent for half the semester and failed to hand in papers/written assignments, and STILL managed to get a C+. Had I not been absent, I would've gotten an A. Her exams are EASY. Pay attention, and take notes. She's the easiest professor. Clear

GREAT professor. Her notes are clear and she is always available to answer questions after class or during her office hours. Not particularly easy- you NEED to study to do well on exams- but she makes the class enjoyable, even if you don't like history.

Lots of great information given. Lectures are efficient. Study with her if you want to learn. Plenty of opportunities to practice writing skills, making it the one of the best Gen. Ed. class I've ever taken. Extra credit opportunities are plentiful. Her website is the most useful I've found at the college.

she is a nice lady who brings a sense of humor to class, but frankly, she will be lax and fun in class but her tests that you take home will be very diffiult.Her reviews may or may not be accurate to the actual test.i experienced both types,and recomend taking another professor. i received an a in this class btw but was very difficult

Great professor, brutal class. Does mostly lectures in class which are often very funny, and everything else is done online, so be sure to have a computer with the internet available when taking her class. I reccomend her class, but hesitantly so. I did get an A in her class, but in large part due to extra credit and some generous curves.

an interesting individual class was entertaining but it is very easy to get lost she tends to jump from one thing to the next and her tests were difficult beings a lot of the questions were never discussed but even when getting the information from searching the web and the book I would manage to get to question wrong bottom linetakeadifferentclass

not much work assigned,however when it is,the stuff might be kinda hard...better study in her class,or you'll simply fail the tests.All her stuff is posted up on her web site,so you dont need notes.She's smart (knows history like her back pocket) and likes to act that way,so prepare for some hard questions.All history classes and teachers are tough

She is very hard to follow, Her test are very very tricky, she tells you that up front. She tells you to use the computer to do her tests But she has her own way of explaining the class, flies all over the place ,hard to follow. She has a wicked vocabulary..Make sure you check you E mail daily, she doesnt like driving in snow another Professor!!

she's tough, her tests demand a strong command of the assigned reading. the questions on her tests can be confusing sometimes and you need to pay attention to both the power point and the reading in order to pass

Half of this class was online so she did pick extremely long articles for the homework but besides that, she's great! She actually takes the time to help and work with you individually if you're having trouble and she always relates the discussions to something interesting. Her tests are not tough as long as you read her PowerPoint/notes.
