Meghan is very sweet and caring, and really just wants to see her students succeed in and outside of the classroom. However, the course was just very unstructured and all over the place. No slides, all off top of her head, and off topic a lot. She is really accommodating but sometimes calls you out (not intentionally) but it makes you uncomfy

She is very accomodating, caring, and flexible. Meghan Iverson will certainly be one of the most unique and influential teachers that students have the pleasure to take at Loyola. Yes she will "cold call" but this is used more to engage students and less about you getting the correct answer, but kudos if you do. Bilateral power structure in class.

If you miss class, there is a shared class google doc to understand them better. If you don't like to participate, you can gain these points by adding notes in the doc. Take her!

Incredibly brilliant prof but is overshadowed by disorganization and chaos.

It's hard to learn from a course when the prof doesn't teach ANYTHING.

Meghan provides such a good environment to learn and hone your skills for real-life experiences. The more you put into the class, the more you get out, especially since she is always eager for new conversation points and things to tie back to the course, no matter the topic. She is such a caring and hilarious professor, a true gem here at Loyola.

Rating this class by what is expected of us assignment-wise, it is very easy since the assignments she gives us is very versatile and flexible. However, the content is challenging since she requires her students to engage with the material and think critically. I overall really enjoyed this class and having her as a professor, I highly recommend!

I really liked her as a person, I'm just a bit baffled by how often she would cancel or change to Zoom when half the students were already there waiting. Super funny but a bit disorganized.

Iverson is a force as a professor; her ability to apply her professional experience while guiding our class through difficult conceptual material was unwavering. She has also been an excellent educational and professional mentor, consistently helping students with real-world bureaucratic systems and structures. Take her, you wont regret.

Can't say enough good things, honestly just take her, it will change your life! I'm very grateful to have taken this class because it changed my opinion on many different political themes and if anything actually expanded my mindset on them. She's willing to work with you and has many different formats to make the student's life as easy as possible

Very surprised to see how theres different questions and even the type of assessment you want. This is extremely unique as I've never had a professor be this accommodating to students. Made things very clear and less stressful since it's based on what you want.
