Originally, I didn't think I was so interested in the whole "humanities" topic, but this class actually ended up being my favorite. This teacher really knows her stuff, and even throws in random facts she's looked up on her own. I ended up loving a class that I didn't think I'd even really like, which made it easy to get the grade.

TAKE HER! She is awesome, loves what she does. Definitely need to try and care, but it is easy. Take notes, read the needed chapters, and you will be fine. Study guides are just like the test. She makes class fun with her stories, absolutely love her! Does her best at teaching b/c she wants you to pass, such a sweet heart. Taking her again for 102

I LOVE Professor Hruby!! Her teaching is so conversational that her classes go by in a matter of minutes. Learned a lot this semester, highly recommend her. Treats you like an adult. She is such a sweetheart and I plan on keeping in touch with her even after this semester ends. She is not only a professor, but also a friend.

pros: learned a lot, open book textbook tests, easy to get in touch with her and she writes you back fast. cons: super hard tests, very strict on deadlines, and tons of reading. overall, really enjoyed the class but you def have to work for it

I only took her online so I can't say about regular classes. Online summer is hard. 3 tests, lots of quizzes, and a TON of reading. She is dead set on deadlines and wont budge at all if your late or forget. Beware if you dont want to read.

Hruby is hilarious! She makes her lectures so interesting bc she understands that they tend to get boring. She always incorporates her own personal stories into almost every lecture. Very sweet person. I'm actually taking her 102 online for the fall (: take her!!!

Love Hruby! She has a ton of energy and loves what she does. We take notes every single day though so if that's not your thing, beware. She's also WAY more strict than she looks, so don't push her or use your phone in class! SHe will take it away

this is for online only. i took 101 and 102. both are set up the same way. 3 tests, lots of discussion boards, a lot of reading, but nothing hard to understand. due dates are really strict, she won't extend anything if your late or miss assignments. she answers email so thats good. prob an easier class than others.

Amazing teacher who actually follows her presentation. By this I mean you do need to buy the textbook, bc she has an open book test with a wkst and if you have the book, A+ for you .. . As for the tests, its literally word for word her presentations. Such an easy A and she is so passionate, it makes class fun! Class isn't mandatory but do NOT skip!

I took her online class. Overall, it is easy, but the only thing I do not like about her is that when I ended up with 89.95 she did not rounded my grade to an A.

The Best teacher I had this semester, the way she teaches is amazing will make you want to focus on this class more. It was the first class in the morning but I was always motivated to go to that class because in that we actually learn stuff and she is also funny and have a cute bright smile.

As this was an online class, it was very heavy reading. Each unit had a discussion forum on Canvas, a few quizzes and an exam. When I had questions about the answers on the quizzes, Professor Hruby met with me and let me defend my answers and raising my grade. She really was very fair about it.

I loved this online class because there were two units and you were given 2 months to complete each unit at your own pace. There are simple reading quizzes with unlimited time that help you earn points. The tests are hard because the questions are very specific and it is timed! Easy paper and and easy 20 point extra credit assignment

3 units, 3 assignments per unit & one paper. She provides all material needed to complete the course. If you read/watch the videos, it's impossible to fail. However, I did feel we only learned about women of liberal preference which left out a few other important women throughout history...

unlike other profs who teach online, she was always very polite when I emailed her with a question. there are mini-quizzes where you have to watch a video and answer the questions,very easy. 3 unit exams (read the ppts. and go back to them if needed) No final, 2 easy papers easy going prof. Extra credit queen- paper (20 points) No Proctoring.

For a 101 class, this course was difficult. None of her exams are online and even if you read the material beforehand, it's still hard to understand. The extra credit saved my grade. Just because the exams are open note, doesnt mean they are easy. You have 75 minutes yet I still end up using the entire time limit. NGL class is kind of bogus, but ok

This was a breeze for me! Super easy never worried about this one. All open book and three EC chances, one each unit. She gave me a ton of feedback on all of my writing which was nice - most here barely even read the stuff I turn in. She's very friendly over email and writes back same day! I'm taking 102 soon.

I absolutely loved this class!!! I didn't know what to think at first but ended up being my favorite this whole semester. Hruby is really good and interesting and genuinely likes what she does. I have had so many teachers who don't care but shr really does. the reading is kind of hard sometimes but it's really not bad. Hands down favorite class.

She cares about the students and treat them with kindness. She is very knowledgably and experienced of her teaching that it fits most of students' learning styles. Her class is always fun because she uses her sense of humor to entertain students! 3 open notes tests, 3 closed notes, & lots of extra credit. Prof Hruby is truly the best of all times.
