I really liked her. She's funny...not always on topic, but interesting and engaging. Exams were hard, but open book. If you read the book you can easily make a good grade. Group projects weren't hard, and she doesn't grade them hard. They help your grade, so does attendance and participation. I would take her again.

What are we talking about here? That's the best way to describe the reaction you will have listening to the lectures. Too much time talking about personal life stories that get long winded and off track quickly. Often found myself wondering whether she would discuss the slide at hand or move on to the next before the class ended. Seems easy though

Dr. Willis is an okay professor. In lecture capture, she relates her personal stories to chapter topics. There is no need to go to class or watch the lectures; just do the 16 chapters of connect homework, four online exams where majority of the answers can be found online and in the book (lowest grade dropped), and the five WSJ quizzes are simple.
