Took her for group comm. Tests include an individual 10 question MC quiz, then a 25 question group test. The entire semester is one big group project that you present at the end of the semester. She puts the powerpoints for lecture on eCampus so you don't really need to take notes because she reads off the powerpoint. Loved her and her class

I get that she didn't write the syllabus for this course & they kinda just threw her into it but she could've tried a little harder. She graded everything at the very last minute and never gave clear grading criteria. Repetitive assignments and discussion boards. She also had auto-capitalization off? Which is...odd for a university professor lol

Shockingly rigorous and time-consuming for a comms class. The professor obviously holds a lot of passion and care for this class, and that translates into the workload and grading criteria. Can be harsh, sometimes nearly to a fault, but is willing to explain your mistakes in office hours. Very friendly and approachable. Want a free A? Avoid her.

She always seemed confused. In her own class? She never seemed prepared for anything and often just made up assignments off the top of her head. No one ever really knew what was going on (her included). The grading was also weird; again, she'd just make things up and give you a grade.

I was excited for the class based off the description, but I was very wrong. She's nice, just not qualified for this course. She constantly points at people and tell them to google something, or she would (on her phone while we just sit there) Never prepared and comes to class late. Don't buy the textbook bc its never mentioned.

I don't understand why all of her ratings are so low. I loved her as my professor and enjoyed her class. She's really funny and cool to talk to. She was a good professor and is always willing to help out of class; go to her office hours if you have questions. This is def a doable class! Take her. I'm definitely a better speaker now after her class.

I was very excited to learn about the COMMUNICATION aspect of sports, but this class is just like a sports 101. It's very basic knowledge and I genuinely wish I learned more. She seems confused when lecturing. She also has personal biases, and it shows in class. Grading was weird, assignments were randomly made up during class. Very unorganized.

By far one of the worst professors I've had at Texas A&M. Her class and teaching style is a complete joke, she's very rude and unhelpful. It's disappointing given the university's strong reputation. If you're considering COMM 260 or Sports Communication, PLEASE take it with a different professor.

This class was pretty was pretty easy. there were weekly assignments that were not difficult, 2 exams, and a group project. She gives reviews for the exams so just take the definitions from Mcgraw Hill and study those and you'll be good.

Can easily hold bias against students, when students unintentionally caused a small interruption to classes schedule. Easily reveal indifferent, annoyed, frustrated face to the students she doesn't like. Directly ignore me when other student comes up with a topic she interested to, even I was asking about formal stuffs.

Attendance not mandatory, but still needed to write your name in your groups to get credit for group assignments so you still need to show up. The “final exam” was 50 questions and on paper and they were previously all online. Told us right when we got to class that it was going to be on paper, then letting us know in advance. Take another class.

random group assignments, and grading randomized. okay teacher, makes the class harder than it needs to be. makes your semester inconsistent if you want to know when to show up to class, and syalbus isn't really helpful at all.

I feel like the course is supposed to be easier than she made it, and she graded the first few speeches unnecessarily harsh so that students wouldn't finish with an A. Oddly enough, she shared some story about giving a straight A student his first B, but she seemed so proud of herself for doing that…? I don't recommend her for an easy A.

I get why her ratings are low, but she honestly isn't that bad. This class is disorganized and she doesn't really understand what she is teaching, in my opinion. I am taking her again for a different class, so you will be fine if you have to take her. Go to class because she does "in class assignments", basically just random attendance checks.

I loved this class! Professor is very caring and intentional, super personable both in and outside of class. Tests aren't difficult but definitely study the lecture slides. Interesting classes, group assignments that count as attendance each class and one group project. I'm taking her again next semester for a different class, I highly recommend!
