Took her online for HUM 20th Century. Most of your grade is based on 4 essays. You can write about any topic associated with the time period. Easy weekly discussions, I'm not sure if she really grades them, but I think they do count for participation points. No tests or quizzes ever (also no midterm or final). Pick good topics, and write well!

I took her online humanities class, and I recieved a B, she doesn't hand out A's that easily and is a pretty harsh grader. but getting a good grade in her course is possible if you really put forth an effort. If your a half ass writer she will fail you, so for those that struggle with writing it would be in your best interest to take someone else.

Professor Lippitt is BY FAR the absolue best instructor I have had in my collegiate career. If you want to goof off and not take college seriously then, she is not the instructor for you. But, if you would like to learn how to write a paper from someone who is AN EXPERT at it, take her and consult with her during office hours. SHE IS THE BEST!!!!

She says she has office hours, but looks at you like you are from another planet if you consult with her during them. I have seen many more involved teachers with their students. Keeps her personal thoughts known in the classroom. (which is none of our business as students). Take someone who is willing to engage in their students success.

Taking her online Enlightenment. Terrible mistake. Very unclear on what she wants out of the discussions. Says length doesn't matter then docks points for short posts. Gives 0/10 on things almost religiously with no definite explanation (not even 1 point given for participation). You will be punished for asking creative questions. Not worth it guys

I really like IDH, but she is by far the worst teacher of the course. While Frame and Sparks try to help the students to get a good grade, she avoids that the most. Lectures are good, but MLA FREAK and dont give us the support we need. IDH is worth taking because of other professors NOT because of her.

She's a brilliant individual, however, she tends to be a bit of an absolutist. She can be quite condescending if you even remotely disagree with her. If you're bold enough to challenge her, she'll talk to you like you're an ignorant child. There are times when her arguments degrade to fallacious logic. She is very set on being right.

I consider the class an easy A because she isn't too strict with grading. There are about 4 essays in total for the whole course. There was a lot of reading required for the quizzes but they had unlimited chances and were due at the end of the semester for my class. Good teacher but I expected a little more.

Attendance matters! If you know that you hate showing up to class you will not get a easy A. She is an amazing teacher and she is straight forward about everything you don't see that everyday. Only 4 papers the entire semester and the rest of easy quizzes.

Honestly, if you really care like actually care about this class. Don't take her. She just tells you to read pages from the textbook and summarize like every week maybe missing a week here and there. I mean she's a really easy grader but yea. I mean I honeslty just needed this class for the credit. So personally, I would take her again. HUM 1020.

If this course is required for your AA degree. I highly recommend taking it with Professor Lippitt. You'll read 3 books and complete 4 essays (one is extra credit), related assignments, and discussions. Her instructions are clear, and she grades leniently. Complete the assignments as required, and an A is attainable.

not really communicative at all but super easy class. I took intro to humanities and each week there was a 20 pg reading you had to summarize in at least 500 words. If you miss one reading, it's an automatic B but there is one week towards the end of the semester where there is extra credit. Super easy A

Easy professor! I took her for HUM 2250, and there were only three papers due for the whole course (no other assignments). Attendance does matter, but her lectures were interesting. She likes student engagement within her classes, but doesn't pressure you into it if you're quite. Can't recommend her enough!

Prof Lippitt's class is interesting but the coursework is just 3 toughly-papers on a topic of your choice that are graded with little to no feedback and another extra credit paper. This can tank your grade more than classes with a lot of assignments. The class is for ppl who like randomness, can write a long paper, and can participate consistently.

Prof. Lippitt is not really communicative at all but super easy class. Just had a few assignments to do which you get 100 automatically for completing it, but it's too many questions if you want to know, you have to read then answer, but i passed with an A for completing them! TAKE her!!

Lots of homework

not bad, there was honestly no engagement between her and the students online lol. weekly assignments here and there, 4 papers total–thats it. she doesnt have a clear rubric and kinda just docks off points as she wills, but she doesnt go overboard so its alright. didnt really learn much humanities but overall she made it easy so yes id recommend Ü

I 100% recommend Prof. Attendance is MANDATORY. Only critique is that she is not the best and keeping the class engaged and there is a lot of dead silence during lectures. 4 papers total for her class. She is a tough grader on spelling, formatting, and grammar so make sure you proof read your work before submitting. Her quizzes are very simple.

I love this Professor. It is very easy to pass this class. Attendances is really important when it comes to this class because it has more affect of dropping your grade. It makes the class more interesting if people debrief after the lectures to show the professor that you understood what you watched. She is very lenient about late assignments.

Overall Professor Lippitt's humanities course was very simple. Four papers worth 100 points with small writing assignments each week, her grading was not very clear unfortunately. If you're already a strong writer and have an interest in humanities I would recommend.

The good thing about this class: wasn't any true lectures. Just articles and books to read, and videos to watch. Writing reflections is the bulk of the class. 4 papers (1 is extra credit) and 2-3 assignment due each week. Make sure that in discussions you write plenty! Class was very easy and LOVED this professor! 10/10 would recommend.

It's a really easy A, just make sure to submit the assignments on time. There aren't that many assignments, and the topics are kind of random, but they're super easy to do. Plus, the professor is very generous with grading. If what you want is a good grade, this professor is absolutely great.
