This professor was the worst I've had at UWM. It's like she knows the class is mandatory so she makes it hard on purpose. Had to purchase 2 books. Had to write notes on every single chapter in each book. Also, daily activities in class for participation grades. Also, she almost hit me with her car once when I was crossing a cross walk. Good luck!

Instructor Rathburn's class has weekly discussion post due every Wednesday and then responses to peers are due Saturday. These are mandatory. Also notes on the textbook are due every Saturday as well. There are 4 projects due during the semester. The last project is a team project. There is a midterm exam and a final exam. She responds to emails.

Jude was the worst professor of my college career. She gives the term "Busy Work' a WHOLE new meaning. She will make you submit notes every week as if your in high school. She provides overly detailed guidelines for everything, then will take points off based on her opinions rather than requirements. DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO AVOID TAKING HER!

This class would have been fine if she actually had an organized syllabus/ due dates. I literally have no idea when there are random things due because her syllabus is so messy. It will say one thing on the calendar but then it won't mention little things your supposed to do to get full credit in the class. Very Very messy teacher.

I took her online in the summer for BUS 330 ONLINE. It was an easy class, the group project is little annoying but its just busy work. Easy class to get an A in if you do everything on time. Literally, take this class online you will not regret it im telling you!

Took the scholars version of this class. Grade is based on 4 projects, one of which is a group project, mandatory attendance, and weekly notes (busy work. She doesn't read). No exams besides final, which is only worth 10%. Unless you are a psychology major lost in the business school, you won't enjoy this class, but it is required and super easy.

You are required to take notes each week on a chapter of the book. Honestly, super easy. She has fairly interesting lectures and very little work outside of the class is required. I would definitely consider this an easy A class as long as you do your work with a "good faith effort" as she likes to say. Very inclusive!

I took the online version so I would never have to go to one of her Lectures. Easy class, Ive just never had to do so much work that is so meaningless. Her pickiness is ridiculous. This class is so unimportant. Makes you do a group project in an online class? I didnt learn anything in this class. It was boring and uninspired. Forced to take.

The EASIEST online class you can ever take. Lots of busywork. Professor Jude also is extremely picky and wants to title every assignment in a particular way. 2.5 easy projects. 1 group project. She offers lots of extra credit; turn in your assignments early. Do your work, and get an easy A.

If you don't attend class, you're participation will be awful and you'll take some massive hits. Pointless class that doesn't matter towards any degree but still mandatory. Extremely picky when it comes to notes and file names. Overall wish class would be removed as it's pointless but easy B/A.

Class is unimportant. Professor only talks about herself. Makes the biggest deal over the littlest things. Treats college kids like 5 year olds. Requires notes to be turned in and then will fail you based off your own notes because theyre not good enough?!?! If that makes any sense.

This class was the biggest waste of time. The content is very fluffy and common sense. I've never felt so cheated out of tuition money. You have to attend class and suffer through the hippie dippy lectures Jude puts together. She talks about powerpoint rules but its dumb bc literally no professor follows them except her...

This class was a waste of my time and money. I feel like all we did in this class was learn how to communicate in groups. 4 projects, all with lots of busy work. Worksheets in every lecture, required community service. Professor left for weeks in the semester to go to Africa.

This class was the BIGGEST waste of money. The lecture content doesn't even relate to what she makes you take notes on to turn in for credit each week, but the kicker? She won't give you any credit if you don't NAME THE FILES THE CORRECT WAY. I cannot believe that I had to take this class for credit.

this class is the BIGGEST joke I have ever taken in Lubar. Final exam is nothing even familiar what you do in lecture, and you do worksheets EVERY lecture. Assignments have to be named so specifically if you even miss one thing it will be a 0. I hated that I wasted my money on this class, and the class wasn't even a helpful class. Readings too.

honestly, I didnt learn anything in this class, and was the epitome of a useless waste of time. I honestly feel I was cheated out of a useful class. The DMP projects are just busy work that take massive amounts of time, and The final is nothing like weve discussed in class. In closing, this was by far the most frustrating course Ive taken

I cannot tell you how frustrating this class was for me. I am so angry that I spent so much time doing NOTHING. I learned NOTHING in this class. I spent valuable time doing her ridiculous assignments rather than spending time on my other important classes I will be speaking to the dean about why this class is mandetory.

The class is self is pretty easy, I took it online. Every week we had to read a chapter, take notes and turn them in. This makes no sense and I didn't learn anything. She doesn't understand that the students are completing her homework to just finish it, rather than try and learn the material. The material is pointless and provides no real value.

BUS330 will feel extremely common sense if you have taken a college level psychology course as it's basically business psychology. A lot of busy work as others have noted, do not take as part this class if you have a busy semester, it eats up free time-- weekly notes submissions, discussion forum posts, etc. She is extremely nice however.

Terrible. This professor treats college students like elementary school students and is 100% self-absorbed. Tons of busy work and minimal learning; put the checks in the boxes and get the most condescending A of your academic career. Professor is clearly a career academic who's never actually worked in the real world according to her CV. Avoid.
