I love Mrs. Minor! I hardly ever went to any classes but still pass every test. She puts the prezis with the info you need online so I would do my notes on my own and then show up for the tests (also get a cheat sheet or take home tests). She engages well with the class too! I just work a lot so I never had time to go to class. Loved her class!

Professor Minor is great for an easy A. All you have to do is show up (most of the time). She cancels class a lot which can be nice or bad depending on your opinion. You can use a notecard for the tests. PowerPoints tell you what's on the test. Incredibly easy, but you learn a lot of interesting stuff! She's nice and funny.

Don't take her if you actually want to learn anything. She is unpredictable, takes weeks to post grades, cancels class last minute, laughs at her own jokes more than she teaches anything. She has a policy that you can't "argue your grade" which actually means you can't ask questions about what you got wrong or why you didn't receive full credit.

Ms. Minor is kind and cares about her students. I really like the prezis, reviews for the tests, and opportunities for extra credit. She gave some take home tests and in class tests and drops your lowest test score. I took this class with a friend last semester and we both earned an A in the class.

Fun and really caring professor. No book needed for this class - just follow her presentations that are available on blackboard all semester. You can take notes from the PowerPoints or review whenever you need. Content for all of the tests comes from the PowerPoints. She drops your lowest test grade, gives four assignments and offers extra credit.

Professor Minor is very caring and understanding. I almost had to drop the class because I lost my job due to COVID-19, but Professor Minor worked with me and was very encouraging. I did well on the final and pulled my grade up. I missed an exam, but she drops your lowest exam grade which helped. I also did the two extra credit papers and passed.

If you have to take this class DEFINITELY take Ms. Minor. You will not regret it. All 3 Exams are open notes. There are 4 assignments that are really easy to do and all of the exams and work is submitted through email. And yes I actually learned a bunch from this class even tho it was easy. She is a great teacher and very understanding. TAKE HER!!

If you need to take Life Span TAKE HER!!! Four exams and very few assignments. No quizzes. Read the slide shows and do the reviews before the exams. (they are the exams). Not proctored. I suggest taking this with a harder class like A&P. The hardest thing in this class was to write a two-page paper about your goals in 5 years. The lowest exam drop

Took Professor Minors class during COVID, and grateful for her caring approach and expertise in the field. Loved her Prezis and enjoyed the assignments. She made me really think about my experiences and my own development. Plan to take General Psychology with her in the fall. Looking forward to in person classes again!!

Ms. Minor was basically AWOL. The course was so disorganized. There was no syllabus, no assignment due dates, and the tests were in pdf format (so we had to provide the answers on a word document and submit). She doesn't respond to emails and it takes her at least 4-6 weeks to grade assignments. Easy A but you won't learn anything.
