she gives brutal midterms, has no idea how to communicate in a communications class, and i recommend that students should avoid her at all costs!

I don't know how Professor Sullivan has such good reviews.. she is one of the worst profs I've had. She talks about being respectful and having a "braver space" but she cuts people off constantly and doesn't like an idea unless she thinks it came from her. If you do end up in this class make sure you run every idea by.

terrible prof. course taken for options. she only respects her opinions, and does not allow for discussion or looks into facts.

I took 315 with her and found her very disrespectful towards students. Her "braver space" concept is not followed by her as she regularly is rude and has called certain graduate students dumb. She takes more than a month to look at submitted assignments and insulted all of us about our writing abilities within the first week of class.

Does not grade assignments in a timely manner (at least 2 months). She rambles during her lecture (porn, Natalie Wood). Doesn't inform you of "assigned" readings listed as additional on syllabus. Is discouraging and berating. When she gives you feedback & you make changes you'll still get a C. Only she can be right. Do not take her class.

While her classes are easy, I would strongly suggest that any male students avoid her as she is blatantly biased. If for some reason you do have to take her, just keep your head down and avoid any logical discussion. Do this, and its an easy course.

The classes are propaganda where critical theory, which is completely lacking in critical analysis/thought, is emphasized. Due to the nature of the course, the material isnt particularly challenging. I would strongly recommend avoiding the course if you are looking for intellectual engagement/debate.

Its difficult to articulate the depths of rubbish you will encounter in this class, suffice it to say that if you have any other option, you should give it serious consideration. Its unclear if Sullivan's disrespectful attitude is simply her character or the result of her many bigotries.

While Dr. Sullivan is very passionate about the topics, she can go on crazy off topic tangents. Like class long. Very biased course, so beware if you have an opposing view. Very unclear on projects and essays, and told to refer to the sylabus when asked questions, or she sends a rude mass email with snarky responses. Quizzes are extremely hard.

Boring lectures that usually consist of her rambling on about randomness. Never have I heard someone promote themselves as a good person by proclaiming she'd love to pay more taxes, not to forget the countless amount of times she goes on about being privileged. Went to her office hours once and was treated with disrespect.

She won't mark until the end of the term, so you won't really know whether you did good in the class or not. A lot of readings, (like 20-30 pages) for one lecture. Gave us a take-home test as a final, had 1 required question (quite hard) and 2 more from a choice of 4. Overall, the prof is strict but has a good humor.

Harped about privilege almost daily, claiming she should pay more taxes and insulted her son regularly in front of the lecture. Vaguely on topic tangents ate up most of the semester and when asking her for help she berated those seeking it for not looking at the syllabus. Extremely hard marker, and I am very disappointed with my experience.

DO NOT take WMST with Rebecca Sullivan. She is a caring and kind professor, but she is not ready to teach. For WMST313 she gave us 3-4 readings a week each 20-30 pages long . Then online, open-book, untimed quizzes are HARD because one cannot pinpoint what exactly should be studied. No review. No study guide. She rambles and leave you confused.

Rebecca is downright one of the worst profs I've ever had. She rambles every class without fail for 30 minutes and then tries to finish the lecture as fast as she can. She even said "I don't care about the USRI's because I am on a 10-year" while laughing. Take that as you will. Oh, and she gives you sometimes 2 60 page readings every week. Have fun

I hated this class. I agree with a lot of Dr. Sullivan's opinions, but her style of teaching ruined everything for me. She is rude, can not stay on track for the life of her (will ramble on), and with assignments you might as well ask exactly what she would do bc otherwise, it's wrong. One of the most disrespectful and worst profs I've ever had.

Everything she believes is based on either her personal experience, or news articles. There were so many things she said that were against science. The most resent one is that there is no evident for overpopulation. Im not so sure what kind of evidence she wants for overpopulation,perhaps the same evidence people want to prove god doesnt exist.

If you can avoid taking a class with Rebecca, do it. If not, WMST201 is an easy A+ if you just show up and do the assignments. She might call on you in class and mildly harass you. She might also invite in a guest lecturer and then not actually let them talk and she will talk the whole 3 hour class. She really tries, but I don't know what for.

She comes across as very rude, if it was not for my major being in women studies I would never take a class with her again.

DO NOT EVER have her as your professor. She is disrespectful to students. She gives boring lectures that are often completely off topic. She will call students out for the stupidest things. SHE GIVES NOOOOO criteria for her expectations on projects, you will not get a good grade no matter how hard you try. You have to be at every single lecture.

Not understanding, does not answer emails to students because she simply does not like to. Expects her students group project to be done by a professor and it is worth a large portion of the grade. she expects work to be the level of a fifth year when it is a first year class.

Sullivan is an unfair marker and only pretends to care about the wellbeing of her students. Regarding a group project, that was created while social distancing, she marked us down on our inability to collaborate and our chosen activist that she approved. She belittles her students in class, her lectures are long, and she comes across as hostile.

WORST PROF I HAVE EVER HAD. Unclear with expectations, disrespectful and thinks she's better than everyone else. If there was one professor I would avoid at all costs it is her. I dreaded going to this class, even if the topics were interesting that week she found a way to ruin them.

Worst prof. I have ever had, unfortunately. She invited guest lecturers and talked over them the whole time, was incredibly rude to students, and overall made the classroom feel like a very unsafe learning environment with her yelling, threats to dock marks if we asked questions about the syllabus, and overall felt like she hated being a teacher.

Is extremely condescending and disrespectful and talks over guest lecturers. Told us, during online classes due to covid19, that she wouldn't respond to questions about grades or projects. Had to submit a grade reappraisal to the head of the department to get a mark changed from an F to an A+. Worst prof I have had in my 5 years of university.

If you're looking for a decent grade that doesn't come with an aneurism, avoid Dr. Sullivan (and call her Dr. Sullivan) at all costs. She seems to go out of her way to be as inaccessible as possible, and will tell you stories of how she got a D+ in intro to economics and was a solid C student when you question her grading.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. Dr. Sullivan should not be a professor. She is rude, unprofessional, and an extremely difficult marker while having unclear expectations. Sent an email to our class after receiving feedback that everyone was having difficulty (COVID) that we chose to be enrolled and cannot accomodate for everyone's personal issues.

Worst professor of my entire undergrad degree. She specifically asks her students to not email her, she had the most unclear assignment expectations but is also not forgiving in any capacity. Least compassionate teacher I've ever met.

Honestly the worst professor I've ever come across; she is rude, speakers over guests and is actively unhelpful. She is a difficult marker with unclear expectations, when she is asked a question she has a habit of talking around the question instead of answering it head on. You won't find anything pleasant in learning the material under her watch.

If you dont need to take this course, do not take it. Shes rude to students and extremely passive-aggressive with grading feedback. She is a harsh marker and gives ridiculous time limits on written quizzes. The content is interesting, but she often goes of on rants about other things. She encourages students to not email her about anything.

I'm in my first year, and second semester and this is by far the worst prof I have had. She is rude and talks over people in our zoom classes. Also discourages students from emailing her because she explicitly says she won't answer. very hard marker for an entry-level class.

Genuinely one of the rudest profs I've met. I've never been so terrified to ask a professor for help before (and then have those fears immediately validated). Content is interesting and relevant, but it all makes Dr. Sullivan look like the biggest hypocrite as she is consistently insensitive and disrespectful. Maybe try practising what you preach?

She has so far been the most rude professor I have encountered, she explains her awful grading system so poorly and will not mark certain assignments if youre below an A. Shes passive aggressive and spends a lot of time arguing with students. She will not allow you to email her or you will break her code of conduct. Never again.

Her grading rubric was confusing so my group put together an email trying to figure out exactly what she wanted. She said that it was exactly what she meant and even asked to share the email with the class. When we handed in the assignment she failed us and said that wasn't what she was looking for. I saved the email as proof. Don't take this class

The worst prof I have ever had. Does not care about her students. She is rude and puts essentially no effort into teaching her classes online but expects the world from us in every way. I would avoid if you can, she will make your life miserable.

She is very heavily opinion based when speaking in her lectures. Many of her takes are somewhat harmful and arrogant

do not take this course, unless you want an easy grade with a not-so-great prof. (not worth it) very opinionated. not accessible outside of class AT ALL. in fact, if you try to contact her, she reprimands and disrespects you. she gives unreasonably difficult projects to do in a very short time frame. overall, very very rude
