I love Judy and did well in her class but she can get off topic very quick Or she fixates on one topic for far too long. She takes a long time to get grades back to you, but you get the chance to revise your papers for an entirely new grade, she gives you every chance to pass just try and youll be fine

Dr. Judy is one of my favorite professors at Millersville. She is very kind and caring for her students. Her class is based on one project and two essays. Do the assigned work and you will pass the class with a good grade. I highly recommend her!

Judy is a very kind and caring person. She will listen to what you have to say and accepts feedback if you are putting in the effort. She is very passionate about literature and genuinely enjoys teaching. However, we were required to do a lot of heavy, hard-to-digest reading, and not as much writing. Be prepared!

Lots of homework
