Lorree is completely unreasonable. She is strict with her paper, she will happily hand out zeros if you simply are a sentence short of the page requirement. She is not understanding when serious personal issues come up. She holds all the power and believe me she likes it that way. Avoid if you can. I couldn't.

This was a great class. I learned a lot, despite it being an online course. Lorree was really active in the course and gave great feedback. The exams were really fair and easy and so was the final quiz. You must put some effort in your journal questions in order to do well, which are worth 40% of your mark. Easy A and gpa booster!

Lorree is generally very funny during her lectures and makes the class seem like an easy A, but you really do have to work for your grade. If the paper is slightly incorrect, she will not read it (beware). She ridiculed students for "silly answers" on exams so be sure to not come up with your own answers because you will be made fun of.

Lorree has to be one of my favourite professors in Douglas. She actually makes her lectures interesting and is hilarious. However, she is a hard marker when it comes to the paper, which brought my grade down a lot because she will not be satisfied with just any paper, but any other work like presentations and exams she is fair and gives most answer

Lorree dresses and speaks to impress. First impressions: she looks like a TED Talks presenter! She's well rehearsed, eloquent in speech, and the best thing is you actually learn and remember things in class. Gives weekly journals that require effort, but help prepare you for the paper and the final. Not an easy class, but solid professor.

Even though this class was asynchronous for me, I would have thought that she would provide better lectures for the class rather than a one-page pdf of her opinions on certain topics. If you want a class that your prof is a textbook since the proper one doesn't teach then this is for you! Also, her marking is very inconsistent with each journal.

I wouldn't say I like online classes with her because it's basically you teaching yourself with the coursebook. Weekly there is a journal+discussion post (based on extra reading or videos). There are no lectures just a pdf (weekly) with 3 pages to read about something and that's all. I hope her in-person classes are better to give a chance

Lorree is a ridiculously hard grader of written work and exam's. Though she specifies what questions will be asked on exams, notes taken word for word verbatim can be marked wrong on exams. Which makes exam's unequitable. In female offenders, she makes many false/unsubstantiated claims. Such as law entitles men to rights that women don't possess.
