DO NOT TAKE HER. SimNet will glitch and kick you off of lessons/tests. While this isn't her fault, she is very unwilling to help if you have any questions. She does NOT respond to emails in a timely manner and she is unclear as to what is expected from you. When she responds a week later, she will not give you a direct answer to your question.

The structure of Professor O'Loughlin's course is organized and easy to follow. If you're ever overwhelmed, she's very easy to reach and will work with you to help out. Before taking CGS2100 I could use Word and put together a very basic PowerPoint, but with O'Loughlin's lessons I feel proficient using all of Microsoft Office. Great useful class!

The class has an accelerated timeline, requiring 8-10 hours of weekly commitment. The LMA is straightforward, but you must follow each step to get the grading correct. You get three attempts at each project and test. The only issue was the unrelated videos in the discussions. Besides that, the class was great for the A.

She had absolutely zero (0) sympathy or respect for me after witnessing a death at work and failing to get home in time to submit my nearly completed assignments. She told me to "start my assignments earlier" when I couldn't leave work due to the investigation to submit them. She puts the bare minimum in but expects all of your effort to be given.
