She is the worst Professor I have ever had. She does not follow her own syllabus. She overwhelms you with work and she does not clarify what the work is about. When you ask for help she never really helps you she just says vague statements in the hope that you will understand what she is trying to say.

Stay the hell away from this professor. She can not teach at all. She will drive you insane. You expects you to complete assignments without as much as a notice. Sure she acts friendly and nice at first but then she turns into a bitter savage and starts to assign all these assignments without so much as a care for who you are. STAY AWAY!!!

If you want a true honest opinion of this professor read this. Definitely the hardest teacher i have had. but the class is NOT impossible. she does give a lot of work, and it does seem terrible, but I found it very helpful and a great wakeup call if you think college should be easy don't go to college. I passed her class with a B+.

Shes the worst professor ever! You dont learn anything and shes so disorganized with her assignments. She gives assignment after assignment and still have to read a novel, the textbook, get vocabulary, and work on the binder. The only reason i got a B was cause she wasnt there for half of the semester and got our grade from a sub. DONT TAKE HER!!!

This teacher thinks her class is the only class that matters in school. She does not think you have any other classes and gives at least 6 page essays back to back. If we are not typing 6 page essays, we are revising them. There will be no time in between to study for her near to impossible vocab tests as well. Advice: just don't take her.

Lectures have nothing to do with class. Gives a ridiculous amount of work. Would be best to avoid her class. Really stressful class, get started early on your essays and "journal/portfolio", she doesn't exactly follow her own syllabus, so ask lots of questions in class. If you don't agree with her line of thought you're wrong in her eyes.

We got Prof.Broadous as a replacement. Thats when life got EXTREMELY difficult. You not only have a Portfolio to do, you have journals, vocab, research projects, book reports, novel notes, research notes, extra essays w/peer edits,HW from the LMW, and MORE. All due in a binder in the correct order. You wont have time for other classes! Good Luck.

Everything that people are saying on this page is true. She is unorganized and extremely inconsistent. Gives extreme amounts of work and has nearly impossible standards. Her syllabus for our course was 17 pages long and was much more important to her than the textbook!I couldn't stress this enough. Please.. Avoid Professor Broadous AT ALL COSTS!

If you have a busy schedule, this class isnt for you. Most of the comments here are true. Broadous is unorganized, and unclear about what she wants in an assignment. Shell change her mind about what she wants in an assignment, making it hard to start early. However, she is an easy grader and quite lenient on latework, but she wont tell you that.

Shes really big on just you learning from the reading and her talking some what about the reading and giving her opinion about the author. Her tests are confusing, mostly everyone in my class got bad grades on the midterm she gave. You also have to do 3 critical reviews and a 15 page research paper. No final test. I wouldnt really recommend it.

I took AFRS115 this semester. I worked extremely hard, doing every single pointless assignment to the best of my ability to only receive a B in the class. (This was the only class I got a B in). She gives many papers, while you are writing a paper, you are given another one to start on. She's a nice lady and she does care , but gives too much work!

There were a lot of papers and with each assignment, the page requirement increased. Turning in final draft required a lot of other additional papers including having a writing lab sign off. As far as book we only read on chapter of the 2 books we had. She said we had to follow the reading schedule and read on our own but she never checked.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. No feedback on grades, unclear on literally everything, canvas doesn't match up with anything she says in class, will do more than required and then will try to tell you that every other AFRS 115 is doing the same when in reality they aren't. Class was an unnecessary stress and I highly suggest you don't take this class

She does not post on Canvas, and expects you to have the (unclear) syllabus memorized before asking her a question. Long stretches of class will be spent trying to clarify what she wants an essay to be about and the due date. You are required to get two peer reviews and a lab edit for every essay. Don't buy the textbook or reading, we don't use it.

This class was one of the hardest things I have ever done in my life, and I'm not exaggerating. She is very unclear and expects us to read her mind. We had papers due every week, while also having to come up with a 15 page research paper. My writing skills have definitely improved but the stress and anxiety from the class has forever traumatized me

AFRS 115 is by far the most demanding and tedious class ever. Prof. Broadous is VERY unclear about what she wants and will change her mind at the last second. Our final portfolio of all of our work and 15 page final paper were so stressful and LONG. The workload is SO excessive and unnecessary. Get ready to write and edit A LOT. BEWARE!

WORST PROFESSOR EVER! I took her for my Freshman year back in 2019 and she honestly traumatized me with the way she teaches. I read her reviews on here before taking her, and silly me decided to not listen and took her anyways. Worst mistake ever. Don't take her! she does not know how to teach properly and YOU WILL be confused 90% of the time.
