Talks down to undergraduates, prejudiced against a specific group of students. Not the worst professor, not mean, but makes comments like "I think this is hard for undergraduates to understand", which was not true at all.

This will be a good class if you love Literature, but if you dont you could find it boring. However,the professor is very good in explaining and interpreting the materials clearly.

I had a problem with this professor asking you to do a writing assignment she doesn't grade-she uses it to guide herself and the class based on the topic she's teaching to help understand the reading. It's a problem at the end of the semester-youexpect your work to be graded-it would help you pass if you just couldn't pass. you need Bb-a downer.

Obviously if you don't do the readings you're going to have trouble passing the class. I think the professor is really good at explaining the literature and making things clearer. The literature can be difficult but she explains it really well. The only thing is that she's a tough grader, but she does help a lot. I really like the way she explains.

She is a very good professor, even if you did not read the material, you still get a sense of what it was about by paying attention and taking good notes in class. You may not always agree with her ideas but she explains them very clearly. But you should read if you want to do well on the in-class assignments.

Aggressive and condescending to students who don't adopt a sufficiently passive attitude. Gives dumbed-down quizzes to verify reading was done, but negatively grades answers that engage with the reading. Overheard telling colleague, "What sustains me is the brilliance of my own scholarship." A fragile ego in a prickly package, to be avoided.

I had read some bad reviews of Ms. Gregg during the summer but even with that i was forced to take her class this fall because Deleon's class was filled. My first three weeks confirmed what most had said about her. She's rude, and loves displaying a patronizingly superior attitude. I felt I had no chance to pass so I took a W. Avoid at all cost!

I think Gregg is writing all of the good reviews on here. Its not enough to write good essays, you have to get inside Greggs head and write and speak about the topics from her point of view, any deviation and she will hurt your grade for it. Your opinions and point of view are all wrong if it differs from hers. You have been warned!

This is the worst professor that I have ever had. I ultimately ended up failing the course and I have never received lower than a B- for a lower grade. When I went into her office hours to address my grade, she wouldn't talk about past assignments and when asked if I could speak she said, "no, because you are wrong." Avoid this class!

This is worst class I ever took. She's a hard grader and she is very rude when it comes to trying to talk to students about grades. She hurt my GPA & I had to take an extra class in order to get my GPA higher. Please avoid this class.

I was forced to sort of take this class being a transfer student as other classes were filling up. I was very concerned after reading reviews from this site. The thing is, she's not that bad. She gave amazing lectures, she was well informed about the topics and very eloquent. She doesn't baby you, and she expects you to be independent.

Veronica Gregg is amazing in terms of knowing the material for the course and clearly teaching the material to students. HOWEVER, this is not a high school class and she really believes in students acting as adults, WHICH THEY SHOULD IN COLLEGE. Do not expect her to baby you. If you aren't an independent student, don't take her.

Two weeks in- she gave me a zero for an assignment on using a website she had no plans to instruct us on. Rather than give us work that tests our understanding of ANY of the multiple texts she has us read per week, we are tested on how to use a website she simply expects us to "understand". Horrible assignments/grading methods. Avoid!!!

Not as bad as some ratings here suggest. Prof. Gregg was really specific about what she wanted, not a lot of assignments, and they are pretty easy. Most of the work was online. She gives you extra credit and chances to improve. If you take the class seriously, complete the work on time and write that extra sentence, then you are all set.

I did not want to believe the ratings on here, so i believed the two good ratings because I needed to take another elective. It was the most disappointing class experience I have had.

Her work is often quite confusing as she's not very specific with what we need to put in our assignments. It might seem easy but once she grades it, almost everyone gets a bad grade. If you're trying to get an easy A for a writing intensive class, avoid her.

Grades EXTREMELY harshly without setting standards. Her feedback is ridiculous, self-contradictory, sometimes straight-up wrong. Worst of all she won't discuss grades, impossible to communicate with. Don't waste your time, there's literally nothing you can do to get an A in this class. She was nice about the pandemic, but the class was terrible.

I did not like professor Gregg's grading style, she focused too much on MLA format instead of the actual information being taught, most of the stuff she taught I had already encountered in high school and earlier years of college, overall it was not much of a learning experience, her class is tedious, would not take again.

I took her for the fall semester 2020 online, she seems nice over zoom. BUT JESUS she grades so toughly. She would ask us to write papers on our opinion on a reading and then grade it saying my choice was incorrect. HOW IS MY OPINION INCORRECT!!!? You could be a really good writer, but I think she only accepts your answer if she agrees with it.

Avoid this professor at all costs. My entire class and I sent numerous emails to her in which she took an average time of a week to reply. The grading criteria is very unclear and this professor also skips her scheduled office hours at times without making the class aware. If you complain to the department, she will ensure that you do not pass.

As much as I enjoyed the material, I do not rec Gregg. Grading criteria and assignment instructions were very unclear and she's difficult to get a hold of. Office hours are on zoom chat only. Constantly had to provide clarification on work (even for the final). If you have the option I suggest taking another prof. Not a lot of writing for WI class.
