Dr. TV cares deeply about her students. She makes research very interesting and gives many good examples in class. She is always willing to meet students outside of class and answer questions you have. She genuinely wants you to do well! You must take her for mass comm research! Her sections get filled the fastest so register immediately.

One of the BEST com professors I've ever had. Dr. TV is amazing and SO caring. It's not an easy class but she's so considerate and always makes sure we all understand the material. The research project was honestly fun but definitely takes some work. Dr. TV helped out so much. Definitely take her if you can!! She's the sweetest.

Dr. TV is easily the best professor I've ever had in the College of Communications. The class is what you put into it-- if you make an effort to participate in her class, you will build a good relationship with her and she will definitely be forgiving when it comes to grades. There is SO much extra credit and the quizzes are mad easy.

She really cares for her students. She is so so nice. The material isn't the most exciting but she does a great job teaching it. I loved her class.

Dr. TV was one of the only professors who went out of her way to help struggling students since BU opened up fully in-person this semester. She always asked us how we are doing, intellectually challenged us, and went beyond her limits to support us. Shes the best that COM has! Ive never had a more genuine and inspirational professor!

Dr. TV is hands down amazing! She cares for her students as if they were her children. Her lectures are extremely organized and clear and she goes out of her way to help you if you need support. Shes the best at COM and I was so disappointed that she is going to be on leave coming up. Her sections are the first to be filled up so sign up quickly!

Great Professor! The best I had at BU. She makes learning a difficult subject easy. Explains everything to the smallest detail. You can really feel that she does care about you and the learning process. I wish every professor was like her
