Really nice lady and wants to give students the best grade possible! Can be a tough grader, but is willing to adjust her teaching to what the students want. Also relates the class to the real world which is crucial in business. You get A LOT of attendance credit so always go o class!

Toughest grader ever! The class is boring and tense, and full of concepts. No bonus. Average grade in the class is C! Think twice before you take it. She makes the class unreasonable by setting 3 exams, 4 online assignments,2 project, 2 presentations, 2 memos. She never gives any gradual process to learn and understand concepts.

Mrs. White is an awesome teacher. I had a great time during her class period because she kept the information interesting by incorporating videos into her class schedule.

Her class is super easy. Half the days you don't have class because she gives you time to complete your work. She does rely a lot on the online lab, which is where most of your grades will come from. 95% of it is all multiple choice, and you can use the textbook with it, which has a search bar (the answers are word for word).

Ruth cares about helping students figure out what specialization they want. She gives out a lot of assignments but it is nothing you can't handle.

In this class there is a lot of homework and tests, but all of it is VERY easy. I highly recommend take Ruth's class. She wants all of her students succeed and grades a lot of stuff so if you do bad on a few things you will still have a great grade. I would like to add that it is very important to show up if you have her because of group projects.

Every week or two theres a presentation but they were always like 5 min or less. McGraw hill is annoying asf to do but its not too too bad. A lot of the quiz and exam questions are very similar. Theres a big group project, but my group did it in like 2 days but youre given 3 months to do it. Attendance is mandatory, but there are a lot of extra cre

Ruth is always in a good mood and brings a positive energy to the class. She is somewhat hard to understand as she talks fast and assumes the class knows what she's talking about. Homework is weekly but easy. Biggest problem is in class which is usually group projects or essays which don't feel beneficial. She's a good first business class teacher.

While there were a lot of group projects, Ruth always gave students plenty of time to complete them and they were all not overly difficult. She is very kind and always has a positive attitude in class. She also gives some opportunities for extra credit.

I feel that this class is a waste of time. Everything we do can be completed in minutes, yet for some reason we always have complicated criteria that adds a ton of work to assignments without doing anything class related. She has a good attitude, but I feel this class is useless busywork. The only learning you do is through homework.

Easy class, she didn't do too much. TA did all work for her, but she had a bad TA that kind of ruined the class but still not horrible.

Good Class but relied heavily on her TA who was very unsocial and strict. Your final project will consist of multiple pages worth of work and the TA read through every page and corrected everything down to the minor spelling errors. Class is mandatory, you will lose points if you do not attend class. You will also have a lot of textbook work.

She was a great instructor. The whole class was based on group projects, and attendance based, so just show up and you'll be fine. She was super nice and helpful if you have questions.

Ruth is a great professor and person. She understands you have a life outside of her class. There are a lot of in-class group assignments, so just make sure you attend class. Easy A if you put in a little bit of effort. I learned a lot from this class and it was interesting. Useful to apply to everyday life.

Ruth is a good professor but she can be a tough grader. There are many group projects throughout the semester and they get dry by the end. She also has a tendency to state her opinions a lot in class about universal health care but it is bearable. Overall Ruth is a good professor that cares about her students.
