She is actually not that bad at all. The DQs are easy and you learn things from answering the questions. She has a lot of interesting stories to tell, and her class is not hard at all! you don't really get a lot of works, as long as you do what she tells you to do. Tests are easy.

She is happy! Her last name is not Piper!

She's really nice and cool, I like her class a lot, it was interesting, although the papers are quite irritating with all of the things she wants, but it is cool

She is a great instructor but the class material is so advanced - maybe it should be a graduate for students doing a masters degree. Too many different papers and topics so it gets confusing. Really difficult for ESL students even though it is Cultural Communications... even difficult for native speakers of English. Yet it is worth the hard study.

I got an A and liked her materials, yes it is somewhat complicated but if you actually put the time and effort to do them you should get an A without a question. She makes the class interesting. I took her class a year ago and if you are taking sociology in the future, this class helps a lot. Those who got below a B could be just plain lazy :)

hey take this class man.. she is quite easy... i like her materials and her binder.. midterm is not hard coz she gave a review before hand. and we are allowed to bring 4 pages of notes!! overall: easy class

Piper is a wonderful and sweet lady. She is very knowledgeable and tries to keep the class interesting and interactive. Had a great time! Do the work and you'll succeed, don't do the work and you'll fail. It's very simple.

She's a wonderful and helpful teacher! Pay attention to take notes and bring 4 pages of notes to midterm (6 to final exam), and you'll have good grades in exams. For all the assignments, she has very clear and organized instructions in the binder. She also likes to share her stories interact with students. Anyway, I had fun and learned a lot!

That ICS was hybrid, part online, part on-campus. Be ready to read a lot of material. Keep up with work, discussions, do review tests, participate and you will do very well. Read her instructions carefully and just follow them. You should then get an A. great teacher, fascinating class, technical vocabulary (this is college level, definitely).

She is a great instructor. She lays everything down and is always available for questions. A little anal about format, but flexible overall. It is a great class if you are willing to put effort into it. Will not regret!

This teacher applied what she taught to every day life and society currently. The examples help demostrate what she was talking about. Before I took her class, I wasn't interested in intercultural communications, but after taking her class, I see things differently and am more aware. Really good teacher.

Really easy teacher. Just do the work and you'll get an A. A little drab towards the end of the quarter due to her rushing through things. Ok class, but boring and inattentive.

Great teacher, knows how to teach. She's willing to help answr questions if you have them. Plenty of EC opportunities. Exams are easy if you've read the course packet. I highly reccommend this class.

What a great teacher! She just loves her subject and makes you to like it too. Do not be lazy, attend all of her classes, read the text book and your notes and do not be afraid to talk about your difficulties -- she is willing to help. And she is funny, smart, elegant, and not boring at all.

She's a great teacher. Very nice and she tries her best to help you with whatever question you have. As long as you attend the class and do your homework, it's not hard to get an A+.

Piper does want things done a certain way, but it is not difficult to pass her class. Just do the work on time. She is understanding of illness and life. There is a group project and that is the only thing I found difficult (I do not tend to work well when I have to rely on others). Hybrid class can be taxing, but class was fun :).

I had a great time in her class - the real life examples & skills activities made it interesting and fun! She creates an interactive & learning environment from day one & ishelpful. The hybrid (online + contact classes)is unique & got the class interacting 24x7. Classes were so engaging, I was sorry when the course ended! I highly recommend it.

Honestly not that hard. Complete all the work and try not to miss any classes and you'll do fine. Class is a lot of fun too.

If you're willing to engage yourself in classwork and discussions it can be fun. Your grade is based on a presentation (can be time consuming), 2 moderately easy vocabulary tests where you can use 2 pages of notes,short written assignments for discussions, a final essay and class work. Tip: show up to class to get full marks on class work!

I don't know why this professor is rated so poorly. Her class is fun, easy and provides you with useful information. There also isn't a huge workload like in other classes. Be prepared to follow the directions and you'll get a good grade.

It's an easy online class when you follow the rules and schedule. VERY caring and helpful teacher. Pretty easy grader. Missing a class might harm grades significantly. Tests are easy since it's online. People who took the online class and complained about spamming is cause they don't know how to use catalyst to turn off email notifications...

The assignments are tedious. The forums/classes seem ****. She labels people by their ethnic background. She does too much when grading papers. Expects you to elaborate on EVERY single detail. If you do not mention something SHE expects, you'll be graded down. On the bright side, if you do the work and attend class, you'll get an A+.

You'll work hard-- a way to have a good outcome is to be open to requested revisions. She is trying to make you a better writer/thinker. Be careful if you think this will be an easy elective course -lots of work, and you need to invest time in it. Tries to be fair in grading. Good class, very useful information. Would recommend.

Great class, if you're not a shy person. A lot of class interaction and communication. There is a moderate amount of work, but you can get good grades as long as you do your work and put some effort into it.

The best instructors I've ever had.High level of communication to insure our success,if committed.Her subject matter knowledge is excellent,as well as her past interaction with students.With this background,she makes sure she supplements the class content with real life experience.She cares and it shows. Loved this class and learned much!!

Piper runs a tight ship. It is not hard to get a good grade if you know what is expected of you from day one (and she makes it very clear). She is quick to respond to questions, emails, etc., and you can count on her being understanding if something comes up (for example, if your group partner flakes on you). I would highly recommend her.

Piper is a great teacher! I had her Intercultural Communications 7 hybrid class from 6:30-10:15. This class may seem long on paper, but Piper keeps it interesting throughout the entire duration of class. She makes the class feel like a 2 hour class. Piper is also very helpful and willing to go the extra mile to help you understand. Highly recommend

Piper is a great teacher! Very respectful, informed and helpful. She doesn't take crap so don't pull out your cell phones and you gotta be on time. She spends a lot of class time organizing her things, though, so be prepared to sit and wait a while. She encourages students to get to know each other and she's approachable. Great professor overall.

This class is really interactive,so be prepared to meet people and chat it up.Shes semi-strict(no cellphone txting or she gets really anal),but she is really understanding and will try to help you out.But passing depends on doing this powerpoint with a partner.I got a W because both my partners dropped.It's not McNultys fault at all..maybe a little

The group project kinda sucks because you can't choose your partner and maybe stuck with some lazy kid that doesn't want to do his fair share. But then again, that's real life... Tests are easy and written assignments are thought provoking and generally fun to do. All I have to say about in class environment is: VERY interactive.

Piper is a great professor. She gets the class involved in interacting with each other through discussions and group work. It's a great way to meet your classmates. She also helps you out a bunch. Her tests were easy and her assignments were reasonable. There's a partner presentation, but as long as you work together, it won't be too bad.

Attendance isn't mandatory, unless there was a class activity, but she is very lenient with makeup assignments. Very interesting class, also counts as a speech class (SPCH 7), fun and engaging, half lecture half discussion, she's a funny teacher, I recommend taking her! Just make sure you do the assignments on time so they don't pile up!

Very manageable class. Piper is more than willing to work with students. You will learn a lot about how you communicate & how to communicate with others of different backgrounds. Many extra credit opportunities offered through various ways (Ex: presentations where you share an ethnic foods). Overall, I recommend!

This class is a fun and useful class to take, I learned lots of different cultures communication skills from it. There are variety of people in our class which helped us to learn from different cultures. Although there is a main presentation in the class, I think its still quite fun during the process. And there are lots of extra credit we can do.

It's an okay class. I basically just stared at my Ipad the whole time. Her lectures are fast paced that NO ONE takes notes. Mini essay other week. Piper loves to give feedback on your work, so take advantage of that. There's two tests and a partner presentation. Just take the class if you want it.

Piper's class is one of the best class I've ever took. She is a great teacher. Always available to answer questions and understandable with students' situations. The class is very informative. With a little effort, one would do well and learn a lot.

My first quarter of college and I was lucky enough to have Piper for Intercultural Communications! Her class is simple: Participate, complete the homework (so easy) and even get the chance to correct your homework assignments for more points!! Also did i mention EXTRA CREDIT GALORE?! Seriously, just ask questions, do the work, pass with an easy A.

As long as you're not lazy, this is a great class to take! Offers tons of extra credit, makes instructions clear, and gives good feedback. She responds very quickly to emails and will always get back to you on your Qs and concerns. She will pair you up with someone as your partner, but grades individually. Great teacher overall!

I consider this the best class I have ever taken in my 3 years. She speaks very clearly & softly. I dont think the work load was a lot; 2 exams & about 4 forum discussion papers we had to write which was nothing. 1 main assignment where you will be paired with someone from another ethnicity & present in front of the class. I passed the class w 100%

Piper is very straightforward with what she expects but if you fail to meet her guidlines exactly you will be docked points. This info is written in a 170 pg course packet which you are required to purchase. That being being said, it is very easy to receive an "A" if you follow her rules exactly. She is lenient, helpful, and great overall.

Professor McNulty is one of those teachers who grades a little tough, and class is slow, but learned alot. Grading is really weird and 1/3 is on participation in class and you wont see your score till the last week. 50 point Extra Credit is your best friend in this class 900-1000 points is an A. Do you homework, projects, and attend. Test are hard.

Piper is a great teacher. It was a super easy class, it really depends on you. She lets you turn some things late. She gives you so much time for your final group project. She's a little specific on what she grades, but the assignments are easy once you know what she looks for. Tests are easy, you get to bring your own notes. Fantastic teacher.

She's done beautifully. Her lecture is full of what to learn and her examples are very unique. I loved it. I'm an international student, so I needed lots of support. She was always caring even about it. I've never met a kind teacher like her here in the US, and back in Japan. I can't thank her enough. She is the best.

She gives many oppotunities to get extra credits. And what's more, she lets you revise the homework after turning in to get better points. She's very caring IF you ask for help. Take her and ask for help at anytime if you want to succeed.

I wouldn't recommend anyone except her. If you want to get an A or more, you should take her not because she's an easy grader, but because she's caring.

Such an amazing professor, you can tell she is passionate about what she teaches. Her grading is a lil tough and confusing, however; her class is definitely doable! Make sure you read carefully and do the work, and definitely do as much extra credit as u can!

Mcnulty is a semi tough grader. Her lectures are dull and she makes you do these weird projects. The good news is she lets you use notes for the midterm and final, she lets you hand things in late for full/partial credit. Just do all the work and the revisions she asks you to do and you will be fine. This class is chill & an easy A.

I absolutely loved her. She really loves people who participate so don't hesitate to! There isn't much work involved, just one quarter long project. The project is easy and fairly informal, and if you ask her for feedback online she will automatically give you 100% on the three "DQ'S" as well as the project paper. Plus she gave 100+ points of EC!

Her class was very informative and she has a lot of experience and insight in the ICS subject, but her grading was a little annoying. Lots of ways to lose points just on the formatting of papers or on how you name a document. However, she offers a lot of extra credit opportunities, so you should have no problem trying to secure an A. Solid choice.

Piper gives very good feedback for homework and allows students to update their homework to get better grades. She cares students' needs and is ready to help students who face academic or even personal difficulties.

The lectures and activities in this class are honestly so boring but it is still an easy A. She has study guides for each test and allows two sides of paper for notes. The group project will suck if you have a bad partner but it wasn't that bad. If you are Asian and speak English moderately well HIGHLY recommended. She loves all things Asia.

Professor McNulty has been helpful so far during my quarter with her. It will be an easy class if you listen to her and do everything she wants you to do. She give a lot of extra credit which can help you get an easy A if you are a B student. I would recommend to take her! Peace

I loved working with Piper because she is willing to listen to you. She will work due dates and late assignments with you because she understands that life can get in the way for anyone. VERY FLEXIBLE. You can talk to her about ANYTHING. I also learned a lot from this class and from her :)

I love teaching style and group project. A lot of opportunities for extra credit.
