She is rude and passive-aggressive. My first experience with her was over email for my internship which I was having difficulties with the system in return, she was rude and talked down to me. I took her for a class this semester and she is not a good professor. She has unclear assignments and grading criteria which leads to deducted points.

Lori is a great advisor and person, but I didn't enjoy her as much as a professor. The class was very disorganized and grading criteria wasn't clear. I feel as though some of my grades fell short only because I wasn't sure of her expectations. She is a really nice person, but can sometimes come across condescending when you ask her for help.

She is extremely rude and condescending. Almost everything she says is passive aggressive. She gives unnecessary work and is very unclear of what she wants which will lead to lower grades. She is THE WORST communicator! If you ask a question that she doesnt like then she will make you feel dumb and wrong for ever asking. Would not take again!

She was by far my least favorite college professor. She is extremely condescending and rude. If you do not agree with her, then you are wrong in her eyes. She is so closed minded and beyond unorganized. DO NOT TAKE HER!! She also makes it impossible to get an A (95% A). She basically does whatever she wants and is always right. Take anyone else!!

Lori is a disorganized mess. She has excuses for everything and is never prepared for class. Her instructions for assignments are vague and confusing. She has somewhat high expectations for someone who can't get it together.

I came into this class terrified of public speaking, but Lorie made this class a super low stress environment where I felt safe even if I messed up. Show that you care and participate in class, and she will take care of you. Lots of time to work on speeches as well! Definitely would take her class again and would recommend anyone do the same.

Way too hard for a speech class. Other professors are much easier for this same class.

Very strict and uncomfortable environment to give speeches in. Wants you to speak like a fake robot and will take points for not doing so.

She gives great feedback on speeches and makes you feel very prepared. I hate giving speeches, but I learned more than I thought was possible and felt super comfortable for every speech. She grades fairly and pretty easy. You give 3 speeches and 2 impromptu ones, but she'll help you while you're giving these and makes them not scary. Take her!!!

give five speeches, do homework, go to every class period, take two exams and write a reflection paper. Fairly easy class with a lot of points but i felt like there was always something due and the class was so boring

Required a textbook but hardly used it. Came off condescending when you asked questions. Took awhile to respond and wasn't helpful. Exams were easy but got marked down multiple points is your answer was missing one thing she was looking for. Assignments and projects were lengthy and hard. Not the worst professor but avoid taking her if you can.

Very nice lady. Work load is manageable. I would have enjoyed this class more if it was a 93 for an A instead of a 95.

The workload is manageable, but the professor can come across as condescending at times. For study prep, Unstuck AI and the textbook were helpful resources.

This professor spends a lot of time talking about her personal life instead of lecturing about the ciriculum. Her lectures will not prepare you for the coursework, plan on reading the textbook and referencing it.
