PART 2 BECAUSE SHES REALLY THAT BAD!! SERIOUSLY do not take, she should not be a professor let alone a head of the dept. She is so rude and disrespectful and makes students feel like they wont amount to anything because she says so. Just so horrible. IT really disgusts me the way she talked to me I wish I could've recorded it and sent to CUNY

This is my 2nd time taking her. She tries to intimidate the class to weed out the bad apples, but she's actually great. If you truly want to learn, this is the best professor. If you're looking for an easy A, look somewhere else. She's strict because she wants us to actually do the work and learn. I loved that all her classes are practical.

She's a very good professor and clearly knows her stuff. Could be rude at times when answering emails and giving feedback, but it's from the bottom of her heart. She is tough, but very good.

I do not recommend taking this course if your looking for an easy A. She is a tough grader and I honestly felt weird vibes from her. She is a tough grader and expect to do lots of readings.

On one hand her information is very accurate and useful. You learn a lot. On the other she is a tough grader and an assignment that seems easy & simple will take a lot of work to get an A. NOT an easy A. But if you want to learn something and willing to put in some work, this might be for you. She also picks on students that she does not like.

rude demeanor and overall, not a good professor. doesn't make you excited to learn at all. she acts like she is above everyone else because she has a good career in the media industry and belittles her students. id stay away any class with her as the professor.

I've watched her make someone cry. When I took this class, it was the first time I had to write in a marketing style; she completely tore my paper apart without providing any insight on how it should be written. I had to ask classmates for help cause I was too terrified to ask her any questions out of fear she would pick on me next. DO NOT TAKE!

just because you are a professor and worked for NBC for however many years doesnt mean your students are beneath you and you get to treat us poorly.

This professor is a joke. She acts like she knows everything just because she wrote a book or two, but honestly, she's not that impressive. She's rude, condescending, and treats students like they're beneath her. Don't waste your time in this class, she has no business teaching advertising, let alone being a professor.
