Professor Donovan literally cares. I was having problems with picking a transfer institution, so Professor Donovan stepped in and helped me with the process by showing me the difference between the two, what is expected out of them, and even calling one of the institutions to make sure that I had understood the admissions officer correctly.

Professor Donovan is one of my favorite teachers I've ever had. She's super accepting and clearly cares. I think the only way you could get on her "bad side" (If she has one) is if you didn't do any of the projects. She has a passion for helping students, and even offers additional advising for free and even after you leave her class.
