On day one she will inform you that she has achieved elite status with her multiple bachelor's degrees and of course her PhD. These are all impressive achievements. My problem with her is that she will hold her students to unrealistic expectations. I felt that she was gading my assignments to the same level as she was while working towards her PhD.

She is for sure the hardest grader I've had for any class. She treats the class as a graduate class and expects your work to be at that standard. Follow exactly what she wants in a paper otherwise, you won't get a great grade. Would recommend dropping her class

Absolutely horrible teacher. You can follow the rubric and she would still fail you. How in the heck does a person that labels every section of a discussion board fail the and provides peer reviewed data fail a discussion board, which is mainly your opinion that you support with accredited research and she reported me for plagiarism when I cited

You need to pay attention to the class and announcements. He is EXACTLY who he says he is - work hard, read and explain your answers. You will learn if you do that.

She was understanding, graded very fairly, and answered questions pretty quickly. I am excited to take her class again for CJUS650, and highly recommend her classes!

As long as you keep up with the work you'll be prepared. The essay portions of the exams were almost straight out of the homework, so be sure to do the discussion forums.

As the last class, and taking with a full load, she was fantastic. Very helpful when discussing what to change or add so that you will be successful all the way to the final project.

Super easy class. He always posts on the discussion board but make sure you meet his deadlines because he is pretty rigid on that.

Dr. L is the most professional, knowledgeable instructor I've had. His experience shared through his weekly "wrap up" was the one thing I was looking forward to the most. The level of professionalism is clearly shown. Excellent in grading.
