She is not real clear about the assignments, but she will help anyone who sees her after class. She is probably the most helpful teacher outside of class I have ever had. She is so sweet and nice.

The beginning of the semester I HATED this prof. But, I learned that she's just naturally mean and to not take it personally. Just ask her questions and go to her, she's more than willing to help and she knows what she's talking about.

Many people don't like Sister Lucia. But I feel that she knows what she is talking about. She is a good professor, and she will do all she can to make sure you have a good portfolio. Give her a chance and she will help you.

Class is more difficult then i thought it would be. Prof. is unclear at times which can be frustrating. She is very helpful if you ask her though. Pretty tough Prof. but i think it made me a better writer.

I didn't think she was very rude or mean. Sister Lucia doesn't put up with students being unattentive or disrespectful, so just be curtious and you will do fine. It was also organized since she provided an agenda at the beginning of ea. class w/ assignm

Unfortunately, I have to agree that she is very rude. I think the class is really straight forward if you attend class on the regular basis. If one can look pass the rudeness she is very helpful when meeting with her during office hours. RUDE!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know why everyone thinks she is rude. I think she's very nice. She grades papers hard but gives you a study guide for her tests. If you master the study guide you will get an A on the tests. Well organized and well prepared. Lectures are boring.

Don't listen to anyone else, she is a fine professor. Wonderful take her.

Sister is very inteligent- evident in her teaching, which leads to her high standards. She expects alot from her students and I felt very motivated in her class. It was one of those classes that I was glad to be done with but felt a sense of accomplishm

Treanor had high standards, but I thought she was very caring and helpful. Her course wasn't ridiculously hard. If you disagree, then you should probably go back to high school and learn to write.

I liked Sister Lucia alot. She is a difficult prof, tests are hard, but if you keep up with the reading, although most college students dont keep up with their reading. Learn from her because she has a wealth of knowledge most profs only dream about.

Sister Lucia was a little intimidating at first, however she knows her stuff! People who say they don't like her are the people who don't do their work! As long as you stay on top of things and get your papers done in the time she wants, and see her if you need help, you'll do fine!

She seems a little scary at first, but she is a really good professor. She is knowledgeable in writing well, and she works you hard. She isn't the friendliest person, but she does care about her students. I would recommend her if you want to become a good writer.

Students who were poor writers were in for an awakening. It's not her fault you started off the class with such poor skills. She demands a lot from you . . . but then, this is college - NOT highschool. Chill out.

This is a very well-informed professor who is willing to spend a great deal of time on each student's paper. She is kind and willing to listen to individual problems. Students who do not appreciate her are just not doing their work.

I'm a Writing Major and if that's you, take Sister Treanor! She is tough but is great. You can learn a lot from her. She makes students accountable. Some writers don't like that but I've found they are the most pathetic writers. They're whiners :(!! I really appreciated her honest feedback!!!:)

People **** about how hard she is or how mean she is, and yes she is demanding, but it wasn't too painful. I mean, we had to work and write hard, but it wasn't impossable. She really did try hard to make sure that we wrote well. I just wouldn't want to have to deal with her again if I could.

I think it's a good thing she rags on students because otherwise, we think we're doing great, but in reality, our essays are crummy and destined to get a D or F. I don't want someone telling me my stuff is great and then a D for the class. I want to know if it's D work ahead of time so I can fix it

This class isn't really that hard. Basically, if you want to learn how to write take her class. Look at it this way - if you take this class early, the rest of your college writing expirience will be a breeze.

THE NUN. She is very unclear about what she considers an "A" paper. Boring, but I learned a lot and my writing has improved. Not recommended if you want anything higher than a B.

Sister Lucia is very strict but if you do all your work on time she will be happy with you. Personally, I hate this class but I hate writing. If you like to write you will love it, she is a good prof. to take either way though bc this class is mandatory and she will make you a better writer.

Requires a lot of work in a short amount of time. Sister Lucia is a good prof but can come off as very patronizing and overly-critical. However, she only does it to improve your writing skills. The class could use a little restructuring content wise, but toher than that, its ok.

She was extremely helpful and always her students in mind. Not only is she a great professor, she is a great person. Sister Lucia helped me survive WRT 150! I recommend her! : ]

Sister Lucia is awesome! She's so sweet and she really knows her stuff. She expects a lot of her students, which I liked. If you take her, you are pretty much guaranteed a strong portfolio if you seek her out for help. go to office hours! shes a great writer and she truly wants to see her students succeed!

Sister Lucia clearly loves her students and teaching. If you want to have a strong portfolio, take her class. She knows how to make writing fun!

If you do your work, you'll have no problem. She really helps correct papers, and you just fix her corrections and turn it in. She knows what the portfolio committee is looking for which gives her students an advantage.

Very good prof. I learned a lot and developed as a writer along the way. You DO need to seek her out for additional help. Be sure to start work on your paper BEFORE the majority of the class works on the next assignment. Attendance is mandatory,but that is not her rule,it's a part of the Writing Department's regime. I strongly recommend her.

Shes ok... its a pretty boring class and when she goes on and on about everyones paper its awful. It is clear that she cares about her students, though.. she is a nun afterall

She is very knowledgable in writing and helped me make my portfolio even stronger than I would've on my own. The only thing that annoyed me about her was that most of the time she treated us like we were in Junior High and there seemed to be a lack of respect towards her students. But honestly, she made me into a better writer. It's worth it.

She is very helpful and expects a lot out of her students. Very picky about topic choice. she actually made me cry after throwing out 12 topic ideas for paper. overall shes cool. Read the assignments cause she will ask you questions abot it.

Sister Lucia is a tough professor but she will make you a better writer in the end. She has all the qualities of a nun (since she is one) with a degree to teach English. She really knows what she's doing and will be straight forward if your paper sucks. However she says it in a more intellectual way like, "Please take this to the Writing Center."

I LOVE Sister Lucia. She's sweet and funny and I still visit with her (and she's one of the few profs I do). She's really helpful and knowledgeable, and I learned so much from this course (take WRT 305, it is great for fine-tuning your writing abilities). Highly recommend!

She was amazing, extremely helpful and clear in what she wanted. She did assign a lot of work but it all helped me and she was more than helpful when it came time to submit portfolio's. She kept us all on track, it was hard but she was a great teacher

She is such a cute little teacher. Everyone says she is really tough, but she is actually very understanding and helpful. She is very knowledgeable and beautiful.

After reading a lot of these ratings, I was freaked out. But Sister Lucia is such a great teacher! She tries her best to make the class interesting, gives prompt feedback to your papers, and is willing to meet with you outside of class as well. She's so nice, and overall a great teacher!

A lot of people in my class really hated her, but I didn't. She's a tough teacher, but only because she wants you to work hard enough to get a good grade. (Especially since she isn't the one grading the portfolio.) It mostly depends on attitude. You put the effort in, and you'll get a good grade.

Sister Lucia is an amazing teacher. Many say she is tough, but that helps you get a good grade in the class because she doesn't grade your portfolio. She sometimes was a little unclear, but all you have to do is is ask her to clarify and she will. She has a good sense of humor for a nun. Would recommend her to anyone wishing to take WRT 150 at GV

Everyone on this page who talked bad about Sister Lucia didn't put anything into the class. Sister is a very sweet, patience woman who is tough but very concise. She is incredibly helpful to those who are willing to ask for it. Her class uses Lecture Tools, which I found to be an awesome program. Work hard, and you will do well in this course!

Although tough, Sister Lucia does truly want you to get a good grade. You write a lot of papers in a short amount of time which seems awful, but left you so much time to perfect them and make them portfolio ready.

I loved Sister Lucia. Yes, she's strict and old-school, but that's how you succeed in her class. If you just do what she says, you'll be fine. Meeting with her outside of class is especially beneficial to your papers. She really wants you to succeed, but won't spoon feed you anything. She even offers to review other papers for other classes.

She was hard at first but she is really helpful if you ask her. She also expects a lot out you but she pushes.

I like this class so far. Sister Treanor has not upset me in any way, nor do I think her writing assignments are stressful or ridiculous. The reviews (through recordings) she gives on our papers are very helpful, and the one thing I would change is the excessive use of evry other website imaginable for the class except Blackboard.

I really liked her as a professor. She was a little rude sometimes but she knew how to give good comments on student's papers and prepare them for their portfolio.

This course was great. I expected to learn how to write well, and I did. The professor only assigned three papers, which was enough for one semester. I was well prepared to submit my portfolio.

Sister Lucia is a very sweet woman. She made the writing process better for me as a student who doesn't enjoy writing. On the other hand, lectures are extremely long. As far as grading, your grade is made solely on your portfolio. The portfolio of 3 papers goes to council of 3 professors to be graded, so their is no bias in the grading process.

Sister Lucia is a very sweet lady with a strong personality. She overall really cares about her students. The writing committee however, is made up of VERY tough graders and you never hear feedback on your final papers unless you fail. I also wish Sister Lucia would provide better feedback on drafts to allow us to achieve better grades in the end.

Sister Lucia is a very nice professor. Although she seems intimidating, she is very approachable and will really help you with your papers. My advice for WRT 150 is go to the writing center.

Sister Lucia was a great professor, don't understand why people don't like her. She is very helpful and takes a lot of time to help her students. She wants you to succeed and have a great portfolio. My tip to survive WRT 150 is the writing center. Without it, you will likely fail on the portfolio. Enjoy WRT 150 everyone, It was a terrible class.

Sister Lucia is a sweet and caring. As long as you work hard you can get an A. The final grading depends on the writing department (2 professors other than sister Lucia will grade your papers as required by WRT 150). Sister Lucia will make sure you have good paper as long as you work hard and reach out to her.

Great professor. Take her if you can

Overall, WRT150 is a horrible class no matter who your professor is, but I really like Sister Lucia. She is very sweet & wants the best for her students. You don't receive a grade until your portfolio in which she & two other professors grade three of your papers. Also, this class feels like it's paper after paper after paper. Good luck everyone!

Sister Lucia is a really caring professor. She'll like you and you'll do well in her class as long as you pay attention, participate, and aren't one of the usual bratty teenagers-aka. if you're respectful. Many people complain about her strict attendance rules and such, however, those are the department rules not hers. She is very caring.
