She does make class fun and as relaxed as it can be for a public speaking class, but she is not that easy. You have to be very formulaic with your speeches or else she will just give you a bad grade. she will give very dull and just stupid speeches an A if they meet the guidelines, dont try and make ur speech fun, youll pay for it.

Very talkative and witty, as a good communications professor should be. Intercultural Communications is deceptively difficult, so be sure to do the reading.

Paula Haug is straight to the point, honest and fair. Lectures are brief but memorable. Show up, read the book, take the quizzes and you should get an A.

Prof. Haug keeps her lectures exciting, she has incredibly high energy, and she's totally organized. She's awesome at keeping D2L updated and she returns grades FAST. She posts virtually all the reading needed for the quizzes in PowerPoint form on D2L, meaning you don't need the book! Most of all, she's passionate about the subject and it shows.

I love Paula Haug! She actually understands the college student and developed her courses around our needs. Her class isn't hard but I've learned so much. She's funny and easy to listen to. Her classes fill up quick, so if it's open I highly recommend enrolling!

One of the main issues with Prof Haug is that she is unclear about her assignments for her COMM301 Online class. I went in to the class expecting her to grade just as she did in her COMM321 class, but it is much more difficult. I have sent her many emails that have not been returned, and her grading has gotten much more harsh.

Such a sweet and charismatic lady! She's totally funny and engaging, and teaches you a lot without making it feel like a boring lecture! If you take her hybrid class, make sure you still show up for lecture, and stay on top of your quizzes! There is no homework aside from the quizzes, except for two easy projects. Would recommend!

Paula is a wonderful professor, and this is reflected in the passion she has for her students. Clear and fun lectures make you want to go to class, and assignments are straightforward and pretty painless. Do your work and you will get a good grade. She inspired me to become a more dedicated student and to go for my dream school. 10/10

Professor Haug is amazing. She is super funny, and the class lectures are fun. One group project, and an easy interview paper to write, and the rest are online quizzes/attendance. No extra credit, but it is not needed in this class. Sometimes just by showing up, you get 30 points. I am definitely taking Professor Haug again.

Took an online class and enjoyed it a lot. Usually I do not like online classes, but this class was amazing. Grading criteria was very clear, work was graded on time and lots of fun assignments. Professor Haug wants you to learn the material and succeed in her class. Chapter summaries allow you to use your own ideas and express yourself.

Ms. Haug inspired me to become a comm major. She is a no nonsense, straight to the point, hilarious, and fabulous professor. Paula is hands down the best professor I have ever had. However, she does warn you not to mistake her niceness for weakness. Take her class, you will laugh, you will work hard, you will learn, and you will enjoy.

Took this class as a pre-req for a medical program I was interested in. I have never been more frustrated with a professor, recommend taking her all online. Some class periods she would assign work as a way to take role so you would need to show up every day. I have emailed her countless times, never answered. lectures were more like story time.

Professor Haug seems like a nice person, but her class engagement is lacking. Onine class.... barely any feedback, quiz heavy, doesn't respond to e-mails, takes forever to grade. Tons of reading but not enough student interaction. Easy A, but she seems overworked. I recommend someone else. I'm not new to onlne classes.

Shes a very tough grader and expects a lot from her students. Class seemed very unorganized and honestly was uninteresting. Assignments werent on the calendar and her class page was difficult to navigate which only added to my overall impression of the class.

Love, love, love Haug! I took her for both Interpersonal and Intercultural hybrids, and she's probably one of my favorite profs in FLC's Comm Department. She knows how to engage and entertain a class. Assignments are always stated clearly - her expectations are achievable, trust me. You can tell she's passionate and is in the right place.

Paula Haug is by far my favorite professor I've ever had. I took Organizational Communication and Interpersonal Communication with her and both were actually informative and a breeze. She is a very personable person and will give you credit on mistakes if you contact her and explain. I highly recommend taking her.

Professor Cardwell is one of the amazing professor's I've had for communications 315 studies. She provides great feedback and LOT'S of extra credit! She does make you do lot's of papers but, she helps you before doing them and her lectures are very well done. She wants to help you and succeed. She even helped me to be a great writer too.

Her grading for papers is so passive-aggressive. She will mark down your paper for absolutely anything she can find wrong with it. I was thinking about going to the dean. She gives you notes on your paper that are full of typos. Calls her students pet names, like dumplings, and as a married woman who is an adult- it's condescending and degrading.
