You don't want this class I am a history buff and was in hell
Excellent lectures. Impossible expectations. Is this a 100-level class??
most difficult course I have ever taken
High marks in ability to teach - expectations well defined, lectures high in substance. Hardest class I've taken at CSCC. Take Dr. Reasor only if you want a major challange!
This class was really hard. I dont recommend this teacher to anyone.
No Comments
essay & short answer, lecture confussing, had to guess on what to study, if you get this professor DROP the class. I'm a straight a student and this was the worst class and instructure. Got my C and ran.
Stern no nonsense lady.Tough grader,harsh critism.Only take this class if you can devote many many hours to study.
Oh, the humanities!
It's not a very easy course, and if you expect to breeze through with Dr. Reaser, think again. I barely survived the course.
What is the point of taking the class if the Prof is going to make it HELL? Drop ASAP......
Yes she is very difficult and has a strong civil rights oriented agenda but she is a decent enough teacher in terms of explaining the material
A very tough grader but you will learn a lot from her.
Dr. Reaser was a fantastic instructor however, she was extremely challenging. Do not take her courses if you are not up to the challenge.
Only take this class if you plan to read everything and can write paragraphs for her Quizes!!!! Other classes in the same course had multiple choice and t/f questions, but not Dr. Reaser's class!!! Be forwarned, this lady is x-tremely tough!!!!
I am an A student.As much as I hoped my quiz grades would improve my average may as well have been a 0/10. No matter how much you think you know it is never enough.
All notes were taken from her talking nothing else...it was borning
****!!! VERY UNCLEAR WITH INSTRUCTIONS. I AM AN "A" STUDENT AND I GOT MY FIRST "C" EVER! VERY UNREASONABLE!
This teacher knows a lot but is very inflexible. The course is already difficult, she makes it more so. If you get her for an instructor, drop immediately!!! She is not worth the anxiety!!
Yeah, she's tough. But then again, not for the slackers or those looking for an easy "A". If you dont want to do the work, then dont bother. But if you can handle the challenge, then by all means, please do. Class not for the faint of heart, the timid, or the whiners whose feelings are easily hurt.
Its funny, I had Dr. Reaser a couple years ago..nothing has changed I see. She is tough and demanding, which I respected. She can make life hell if you don't do the work. She doesn't know grammer and will insist that she is right. READ!!! and take good notes. It helps when you get to 4 year school.
It is funny, because Dr. Reaser's class is for the strong,it is not a class for the weak. If you want to pass than you had better plan on working for the grade of choice. She is funny and a great instructor. Give her a chance if your intentions are to actually learn something!
yes i had her twice. horrible teacher, horrible lecturer, no compassion or desire to be teaching. should retire!!!!!!
Her class is very hard and she demands a lot from her students. This is not a class for slackers or freshman. It is helpful to take Hum 151 first.
reaser has no sympathy whatsoever... beware

I hated that class. That was the only class i ever failed.
AHHH! She makes this class a living HELL! I was very interested in Humanities before I took her class, now I hate it! You can never tell what will be on a test or quiz, they are very hard! I would study for hours upon hours for her class, and for what? A freakin C!!! I am an all A's student with a 3.5 GPA, and this class even shocked me!
What a living nightmare, most unpredictable teacher ever! Stay away from her class!
dumbest teacher ever, ruined my grades, so damn hard, I dont think you could ever get an A in her class, I dont think any one has ever gotten an A, I would be suprised if some one got an A -_-
Well, she thinks she is always right. If someone has a diff opinion, she's stilll right. If she's wrong, she's still right. i love history & actually thought her lectures were entertaining. Other than that, she grades really hard, even if you copy your notes verbatim on the exams. I don't know if she's realized that she IS NOT teaching at harvard

She has absolutely no simpathy if you mess up. She is a not a kind woman and while she knows her material very well, she is not that great of a teacher. She has very HIGH EXPECTATIONS and her quizzes and tests will reflect such. A small hint: never take a class in which the instructor wrote the book! Not recommended!
She spelled pilgrims with an "a". She spent 2/3 of a class ****ing about hor the first amendment is outdated and unnecessary. I love history but couldn't stand this class. There was a one lecture where at least 100 people got up and left. Ridiculous.
She is one tough cookie!!! Definately not the average instructor at Columbus State. Not a push over & indeed expects alot... BUT she did teach some impecable skills that have taught me to be a better student (especially note taking & comprehension skills). I think that she is an excellent instructor & recommend her to anyone willing to work for the
run the other way!
I absolutely hate history, but she managed to make it interesting and stick in my head enough for me to make it through the class with a "C" which I am perfectly happy with. She gives 3 pop quizzes, they are worth 30 points each which is a big part of the grade (and most of the reason I got a C). She is a pretty hard grader on the papers.
I think her class was very beneficial for my college success. There were many things that I learned that I though that I already knew but didn't. Overall, great teacher. I think one of the best CS has to offer!
I had her in a combination class with Professor Riley. I can't stand Riley but Professor Reaser was good. Her class is just really hard.
Enjoys what she is teaching, rarely boring. However the tests are hard and it's a lot of work. The class is divided into a large and small lecture class. If you miss one large lecture class you are screwed if you don't get the material. When schedule time comes around her class fills first, so that's probably a good measure of her ability.
She was a very tough teacher. However at the end of the quarter I learned more from her than any other teacher prior. She teaches not only the subject but learning skills that I will use throughout my college years. The class is worth it if you don't mind working for the grade.
Run the other way! I used to like history now I don't want to hear about it.
very fair professor, she explained her expectations from the beginning and never waivered from it. She's very tough though, her tests are very hard but pertinent to the context of what she teaches, you'll do well in her class if you take good notes and study.
She is very informative and knowledgeable but is rude and abusive. On more than one occasion she berated students in front of the class.She gave me a 2 out of 50 on my paper because I gave too much information. She uses a PHD course load for a 5 credit hour class. Don't plan on working or leaving your house. Start a study group as well.
I fired her after the second quiz. She moves the bar when grading and it seems to be her goal to fail as many people as possible. I really did like her lectures but the fact she required an insane amount of detail on her weekly quizzes (10 short answer questions to be completed in 15 minutes). Unless you are a budding history major, run away!
If you didn't understand the subjects she failed to explain in class, she recommended watching movies such as, Elizabeth. She goes off on tangents that are so over the top you know that she is just trying to get you to study hard. Teachers shouldn't have to threaten students to study at a college, especially if she recommends movies for clarity.
Thought the class was a good challenege. If you are a slacker than do not take her class she will challenge you but you will also learn a great deal in this class. This is college expect classes to be tough and if you don't pass than the only person to blame is yourself. I got an A on every exam she is not as hard as made out to be.
horrible
She's ok by trying to make the class interesting. It's hard though. I barley passed. She thinks it's easy though. Take your pic all the humanities classes suck anyway
This is the absolute worst teacher I have ever had. I had 4.0 before I took her class and I earned my 4.0 taking some extremely difficult science, math, English and nursing classes. This teacher is extremely vague in the questions she'll ask on quizzes and exams - this gives her the opportunity to grade you down.
She is very opinionated and arrogant. She also is incredibly liberal and a major feminist. Her lectures are dull and long-winded and the exams require her dumb book she wrote that is pointless and kills your grade.
she is so bad dont take class with her she quizes u over the book but does not go over it what is that about then she gives you 2 out of 50 or even 0 out of 50 and wont give you a chance to make it up she sucks big time.
shes terrible, exams over your notes and she doesnt cover all the material in her lecture notes so when you go for the final and midterm, you are screwed unless she likes you, then she'll pass you with a c
She is a wonderful teacher. I didn't have any problems with her at all. She is tough but she has a reputation for that. All I can say is that I learned something and that is the point, isn't it?
I only had her for the general session, and she is a VERY RUDE WOMAN. She treated the whole general session as if we were in high school! We are all adults and she felt the need to talk down to us. I'm just glad i only have her once a week. i couldn't possibly see how anyone could have her as their main teacher as well.
If you take this teacher you need to be good at history, able to keep up with notes, reading, and other reading, and be able to stay on top of all of your work. If you mess up she gives you hell. Other than that she enjoys the class but is kinda strict.
very strict and hard to pass
Very tough class with her! I liked her lectures, they were actually very entertaining. But oh god, she is a tough test giver! She likes pop quizzes and she does not do multiple choice. You better like history a lot and you better be a good writer if you plan on passing.
She isn't a hard teacher. Just do the work, which isn't all that much. She has little tolerance for people who don't read the assignments. She is a tough grader of quizes. Her tests are hard, but not extremely difficult. Her class is not an easy A, but you would have to try to fail.
Tips to guarantee that you will pass with at least a C: 1.Dont show up late, chew gum, or eat in her class 2.if for some reason U want this teacher after reading the other comments,make sure this is the only class u take for that quarter 3.Suck up to her(to the point where she knows you 1st and last name.)if u cant follow these tips, good LUCK!
She was very difficult to work with. Constantly changed the syllabus and failed to clarify the changes. Gives unlimited time for short answer exams, but only 30 minutes for the essay exam (We had to write 2!) Great person outside of the classroom, but hardly a competent teacher. She will be a challenge to those who average in Humanities.
Be prepaired at all times.Should you run into any conflicts,have good documentation.You will learn more than you bragained for and any classes you have after her will be a cake walk. She will give you your measure.
If you like taking essay quizzes and exams and at the same time, try to pin down the instructor?s perceptions, then by all means, go get your C.
scare tactic style teaching, not very approachable at all, constantly annoyed by the smallest things. if you have any feelings of doubt or trouble with this teacher within the first week of experiencing her class, DROP A.S.A.P. believe me you will not regret it!
A butt kicking class; you will sure learn alot. Just do what is on the syllabus and don't get behind. Great class; fun prof. Just be ready to some hard work. Reaser is stubborn and grades a little oddly. You'll learn alot, though.
HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE CLASS! The most infuriating and annoying woman ever. She is Obsessed with her syllabus, however cannot manage to stay within her own guidelines, setting you up to fail on papers & tests. She grades as if she is literally trying to fail students just to prove a point & scare young kids. Do Not Take!
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS! Seriously the Worst person and teacher I've Ever encountered-not just with her horrible teaching methods but also her insane ridiculous grading!! Thanks for ruining my 4.0 GPA. If you'd like to learn anything about American History, Do Not take this teacher!
Good story teller but a HORRIBLE educator. Not clear on assignments and when confronted, won't budge.
Prof was unclear on grading rubric for arts paper #1, teaches for the exams, so there is no reason to NOT do well on the exams, unless you didn't show up for class. Takes a little while to appreciate her brand of humor, but really could be extremely funny at times. I learned a lot in her class.
How can you claim to love Japanese history, teach a class on Japanese civilization, and still not know how to pronounce any of the words? It's not that hard, they only have 1 sound for each vowel, easier than English... Anyway, she's a horrible teacher also, incoherent lectures, textbook contradictions, and a clear sense that she doesn't care at al
100% unqualified to teach Japanese history. Not only can she not pronounce a single Japanese word, term, place, or name, but she will give a different ridiculous pronunciation each time she says it. She can't keep her facts straight, either. The quizzes she gives out once a week are full of minor details from readings we were assigned rather than t
In an imaginary world where unicorns roam and pots of gold at the end of rainbows, this instructor might class as an "ok" person to teach. ABSOLUTELY has no intent to help or clarify things going on in class, when she does she has a fit that people don't understand. Words that describe her, contradictory and uneducated (on subject matter). Beware.
All tests and quiz's are short answer, the class is a lot of work I dont suggest taking it unless you need it.
It really seemed like she sets out to fail people to teach them some life lesson or something. She is, hands down, the worst professor I have ever had. I've had straight A's with the exception of this one class. . . which I failed.
Hard teacher but intends to teach and come on people, this is COLLEGE. You will have to study a lot. The class is REALLY hard at first but if you ask for help she is willing and 1/2 way through the quarter she begins to grade easier. Do the work and study and you will pass no problem! I got a C no prob. and am taking her again next quarter!
One week in and she's already terrible. She can't pronounce a single thing correctly, and whenever anyone asks her to clarify, she doesn't. She just gets defensive and acts offended that we didn't understand what she was talking about or if you have prior knowledge. If you want to be a troll, take the class. If you want to learn something, don't.
Three weeks in and I had to drop it. She claims to be "fascinated" by the subject, but can't even pronounce the simplest terms. You would think after however many years of teaching the subject, you'd have a grasp on them. She isn't organized during lectures and jumps all over. Just like everything else at CSCC, she's horrible.
I didn't do well at all in this class, first class I have taken in 10 years and it she kicked my butt. She is very informative and very real. If you like reading and writing papers this class is for you. If you attend class, take the quizzes every week, and participate in class you can survive this course. She is an excellent instructor!
This has got to be one of the worst professors ever. She knows her stuff but is all over the place and hard to follow. She gets upset if you do not participate in class and when you do you are always wrong. Anyone taking a class with her I wish you good luck. We started with a full class and 3/4 had dropped by mid-term.
I love history, adore it, however if you get this teacher..DROP THE CLASS! She absolutley knows her stuff, but she expects you to know everything she does. Her grading makes NO sense and she even gave me the wrong grade at the end of the quarter. She is great in knowledge and she lectures really well, but everything else is horrible!!
Horrible teacher who should retire already
I have to say I enjoyed Dr. Reaser. I was fascinated by her lectures. It all depends on what kind of student you are. You do have to be mature enough to handle her type of teaching. Most of the other comments are true - she is difficult, but if you're a serious student, you can get an A or a B easily. I actually miss her!
She is a very difficult teacher, however if you are a motivated student and have good work ethic you will enjoy her class! She knows just about everything about history and that helps her lectures. She makes things interesting and it's not boring. If you are a good, motivated, not lazy student, you will do well!! Great Teacher
The classroom environment is unpleasant and stressful. Instructions for papers are not clear. Grading feedback is not helpful. I was NOT treated with respect. CSCC has some excellent history instructors. Take this course and others with someone else!
A ridiculous amount of work for a 3 credit hour class. She is extremely vague with her instructions and then grades you down for not being able to read her mind. Stay away.
Wonderful teacher who is full of information. passionate for her work, and knowledgeable about her stuff. Her classes are tough but fair, as long as you put the necessary effort, you will excel in her class! pay attention kids, this is a good one right here!
Classes were interesting but hard to follow most of the time jumping all over the place. This is an introductory course to American History NOT a forth year history major class! AVOID AVOID AVOID
I worked so hard in this class and got a failing grade. She was very unclear on what she wanted in our art paper. We went over all the details in class, and then she didn't want us to write about any terms we went over. She had s long line of students who had the same problem with their papers. Rude and unclear on what she wants!
Dr. Reaser is not this horrible evil professor like everyone seems to think she is. If you apply yourself, you will have no problems. She's not there to hand out free As, that's for sure; but if you study, do the work, think outside of the box, and ask question in class, you will be fine. This is a wonderfully intelligent woman with an honesty passion for history.
Awful. Avoid taking this class with her.
Let's just say she's earned her low ratings. Her grading system is incomprehensible and inconsistent. Her quizzes are impossible. The writing assignments lack direction. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.
AWFUL! DO NOT TAKE! I have been at CSCC for 2 years and she is BY FAR the worst! She doesn't do powerpoint notes, you have to listen to whatever she says and write it down. She doesn't do online grades so you NEVER know what your grade is unless you manually figure it out. She is VERY strict with cellphones/laptops. NO CHEWING GUM. she is awful!
Worst educator since the word was conceived. I was a history major, now I'm majorly upset. She tests you on material she wont lecture on until the following week. Again, take a test, learn about it sometime next week. Very cantankerous and genuinely bitter feminist. Look for all 5 of the good reviews. They are happy with a C. Nope. AVOID!!
Incredibly hard class. The quizzes are often over easy-to-overlook details. There is a 100% chance you will fail the first two. Her lectures were usually decent, but jumped often and I had to spend the majority of them jotting down EVERY MINOR DETAIL, because that is where she pulls the midterm/final. Avoid if possible.
I saw the majority of my class struggle and it didn't click for me until close to finals. She's TOUGH and unless you want to cry yourself to sleep every night after studying all day...consider taking the course with a different professor
Not clear. Ask her one question, she is way rude. I am going to try to switch to a different professor. She is a joke.
SHE SCARES ME! Very, very harsh grader. However, her lectures are very entertaining and she is incredibly smart. History buff for sure. Wildly outgoing personality and she is not afraid to call you out.
Don't listen to what other people say. I am currently taking her class, and although the midterm was a bit difficult, she is still a good teacher. Basically she lectures for a class. Her lectures are good though, she's very smart and loves Qin Shi Huangdi. You read out two textbooks. One for quizzes, and the other with the notes for the exams.
Worst teacher ever. I emailed her many times throughout the semester with questions and she never once responded. She never updated the grades online so going into the final exam you didn't know what you needed to receive to pass the course. She weighted the quizzes so high that they were more points than the midterm/exam. Don't take from her!
I did the readings, highlighted, and took detailed notes, and I was failing after the 1st month of class. On several occasions, my answers to her weekly quizzes matched what it said in the book exactly word-for-word, and she still marked them wrong. I've never earned under a B+ for a class, and I graduated high school with a 4.2 GPA. Not anymore.
The syllabus is key to the class, will not announce things. Syllabus outdated and constantly revised mid-flight, including incorrect page numbers for readings. Or readings not even mentioned at all. Which you will be quizzed upon. Moderate reading, maybe 30-70 pages pweek. Quiz every week, format can change without warning. She is interesting.
I have taken several of her courses and although she's a tough grader she was willing to meet with me after class for help. Her weekly quizzes are not that difficult if you keep up with the readings. She knows what she's talking about- wicked smart! I found her very entertaining. I would definitely take her again.
this professor is techno-phobic and irrational. Her lectures are essential to passing her class and completely incomprehensible, she jumps from topic to topic like a cricket! She is extremely strict, and expects her students to be able to read her mind. Heaven forbid you not pick out the same details that she did!
Dr. Reaser's class is definitely not for the faint hearted! She is tough but to be honest, I learned more from her than I have from any other professor. She has high expectations and as long as you keep up with the readings and ask questions, which she was more than willing to answer, you will do fine.
In week five right now, not enjoying at all. Quizzes are nigh impossible unless you read. If I had a choice to drop I would. I've been able to survive with my laptop in hand, but I'm losing hope for my grade. Also she hates gum and anything electronic. She likes cats? Not sure on that one. JUST NO NOT AT ALL, DON'T TAKE UNLESS YOU HATE YOURSELF!!!
I used to like history. Then i joined her class. Thats all i have to say.
Very strict and an extremely tough grader, to the point that it's not even fair what she takes points off for. She DOES NOT use Blackboard AT ALL. Doesn't post lecture notes or reminders online, not even the syllabus. So you HAVE to be there and on time every class to make sure you don't miss anything. She's not helpful if you are struggling.
She was a ridiculous professor. Example: no gum chewing in class. Quizzes were extremely hard and were about random facts that did not necessarily have to do with the overarching themes or events.
Uses blurry overhead projector and sloppy chalk written notes on blackboard. Terrible and amazingly boring lectures. Most strict teacher i've ever had, doesn't even let you chew gum in class and I chew gum constantly :(
She's terrified of technology or any kind of change. This class seemed to be more about how to pass her class than about history.
Hardest teacher ever, good at explaining but a very tough grader. Quiz and a lot of readings every week! One super long essay and resources ONLY from the book and she's very selective in those resources. Tried very hard, passed with a very low score
Avoid this woman at all costs. History is my best subject and I have never gotten anything lower than a B, except for this one. I was forced to drop because I was failing. Her grading is ridiculous and she'll take off more than half credit for missing tiny details when answering questions.
In this class you will take a quiz every week over a certain textbook but none of that info will be on the exams. She claims what she says in the lectures will be on the exams but really you must rely on your 2nd textbook for exam info.
Do not take this class if you don't study! It's probably the hardest class I've ever taken. This class turns into, "I only want to pass!". I would avoid having this professor at all costs if you are lazy or don't put a lot of effort into your work. There are quizzes every week and pick specific information from readings. She is a super hard grader!
She doesn't use any technology, no powerpoints (nothing is uploaded online either), no grades online either you seriously don't know your grade until you ask her and I guess she'll calculate it then. She's not an entirely bad person she can be kinda sweet if you get on her good side ( I did ) but very tough grader.
The subject is interesting to start and her passion for the class makes it much more entertaining. the grading criteria is clear on the syllabus but it is a heavy workload.
Quizzes every Monday, extremely difficult if you don't read the chapter it's over multiple times. If you consistently get 6/10 on them you will fail. Midterm and final are extremely difficult. Research paper is very in depth and demanding. I got a B in the class, but only after sacrificing trig for it. A C+ on the midterm was best grade.
Very much lecture-based, difficult tests, a quiz every Tuesday, and a research paper. Even if you understand the general idea, if you don't use the specific term or phrase she's looking for, you'll get the question wrong. Doesn't hand out study guides, so it's hard to know what to study.
She's is rude, and doesn't like to be challenged or questioned (even if it's a legitimate question). Her guidelines are not specific, and then she takes points off for it.
She made class fairly difficult until she started changing the way quizzes were done each week. She grades tough but has clear outlines of what she wants on the syllabus. She's more traditional and will most likely have students turn off their phones and put them face down on the desk. Lectures are oral with no slides. Would not take again.
By far the worst class I have ever taken. She will mark your answers wrong if she does not like the way it is answered, even if right. She does not like to be questioned, expects you to understand material instantly.
Reaser is a very nice lady if you establish a bond with her. She takes the time to help! She was a bit tough on our class however she's a tough teacher in general. Her course load is heavy and exams are rather stressful but I've learned a lot from this class. The final essay was rather difficult but I ended up enjoying it in the end.
SHE IS TALKS ALOT AND YOU HAVE QUIZZES EVERY WEEK AND THEY ARE SO CONFUSING AND SHE GRADES VERY HARD
She does a good job of explaining history and details the things she finds interesting. I missed class a few times and its a bit challenging especially before a test. In this class she gives take home midterm and final essay papers as well as an 8 page research paper. I found the class interesting but i know many that dropped or did not enjoy it.
She is friendly when she gives lectures and makes jokes. However, she is a very tough grader, her instructions aren't specific ands there are no powerpoint slides.
Vague in directions (both exam and quizzes) Quizzes are given based off of reading material , good luck searching for what you need to know! Not specific on research projects, only allows two online sources and the rest have to be books (10 sources total) Lectures are confusing and she goes off on tangents on things that are unnecessary.
Very tough professor. Over half our class dropped out. By the end we were left with about 8 students. Further into the semester she did make things a little easier for us, I assume this was because of everyone's poor grades. She didn't post any grades onto blackboard until weeks after midterms. Keep track of your grades yourself.
She puts information on the slides that are not relevant to any exam, and when she does, its minor information that it doesnt really add anything. She will be very nice to you then fail for such vague reasons. You will go into detail about about the history, then write a giant ? above it and wont elaborate or give a murky answer when asked.
Worst professor I've ever had. A community college course that I took on the side should not be harder than my 400-level history courses at a private institution. Super harsh grader, does not communicate regarding assignments and then punishes her students when it's not exactly what she wants. Honestly in my opinion should not be teaching. Avoid.
She was the hardest professor I have ever worked with. You write a 10 page research paper and barely gives any guidelines, and you are also stuck with not knowing what your grade is until the end of the semester. Her classes are difficult and she does not tell you what you did wrong. If you do not want a headache do not take this class.
Professor Reaser, has to be hands-down the worst professor I have ever had! She was rude, condescending, was horrible at explaining and seemed annoyed when we asked valid questions. Extremely hard essays, weekly quizzes, and tests. If you want to get a good grade form a relationship with her and engage in the class.
She demands perfection and then gives very vague feedback. Also, the syllabus is a nightmare to navigate and gave me a headache every time I read it. The notes on the PowerPoints are riddled with spelling errors you would not believe. And lastly the research paper requires 10 sources including 6 library books!!! Avoid taking this class at all costs
I am the nerdiest, A+ in every class student- and I couldn't do well in her class no matter what I did. I honestly never had a worse experience with a teacher before. Not engaging at all, boring, horrible at grading, and get ready for extremely hard, weekly quizzes. I never say this- but this person should have never been a teacher. Save yourself.
Does not give any guidelines whatsoever on anything always refers to the syllabus which also gives a whole lot of 0 information. expects too much perfection with 0 help on how to achieve it. Also a 10 page research paper only using books(no ebooks) as sources due in a month which would mean forget your other courses and free time. Very tough grader
I would not wish this upon my worst enemy. This woman should have never became a professor. She does not help you when you ask and could not care less if you fail her class. She is condescending and expects perfection with no guidance. Absolutely do not take this class ever.
Absolute luddite, refused use of phones in class even for academic purposes. Said she has taken phones from students and didn't return them for a week. Incredibly long syllabus (26 pages) a majority is spent talking about what you can and cannot do for her extremely specific research paper. Absolutely steer clear.
