The best teacher!! Really cares about her students and willing to work with you! Gives tons of extra credit and extra points for coming for class! She does talk very fast so you need to be able to take good notes. Her test come strictly from her notes, i never even opened the book once! WONDERFUL PROFESSOR :]

All i have to say is: TAKE HER, GETTING AN A IS A SURE BET. i didn't have to take the finals because i already have an A with her extra credits. and for those that want to really learn, she uses a lot of medium to explain things, so you would understand her unless you are a dummy dumb. 5 months ago i knew nothing about USA and her govt. now, wow!!

Dr Uhlir is an excellent presenter. She makes information that could be very dry or boring and brings it to life. She is also one of the few professors that consistently takes a genuine interest in her students in and out of class. Participate and take advantage of extra credit opportunities and the grade is no problem. Skip class, no pass!

One of the best professors Ive ever taken! Her lectures are long and cover a lot of material but she keeps it super interesting so it's not too hard. As long as you work her system it's an easy A: Go to class and do extra credit for 200 points in the grade book, only 160 to go on 4 tests for an A.
