Comment:
I am not the biggest fan and am surprised people are. I took her online for CRIM 102 and she makes up her own quizzes and words them in a way its difficult to answer or look up because she gives you 45 mins. She rambles in class and is extremely boring, but she usually doesnt take the whole class time. It is also basically impossible to get a 100

She's very responsive if you're having issues with the class or work, but the class is very easy as long as you show up and take notes. She recommends you buy a textbook, I didn't use it and got an A.

Class consists of 3 discussions a week which are very easy and 1 assignment a week which are also very easy. If you do the work you will pass. This is probably one of the easiest classes I have taken so far and its a 400 class. That says a lot. Take her, you won't be disappointed. You also do not need a textbook.

Dr. Gossett is awesome. I've taken her before in a 300 class, and even this writing intensive was cake. She makes it interesting and fun, using video clips and bringing in people to speak. She has 2 tests, which are online, and they're way too easy haha. Plus she gives so many little assignments, you CANNOT get lower than an A. TAKE THIS CLASS!

Dr. Gossett's class was great. Exams were online and assignments were short and simple. Take her if you get the chance. She is very passionate about her teaching. Not a stressful class.

Comment:
Never had to use the textbook and all assignments are open-ended essay questions focused on applications of the concepts she discussed in class. Assignments were very easy to complete and you only have to complete 10 even though she assigned about 15 throughout the semester. Mid-term and final exam were both online essay questions as well.

She is a great Criminology professor. I learned a lot from her. She communicates very well and adds the most interesting things into her classroom. She expects you to come to class and often gives assignments but do not let this discourage you!! You will learn a lot if you take her!!

Didn't talk about cybersecurity but it was still and interesting class. Three online quests, a couple in and out of class assignments, and one group project that you can do own your own if you want. Probably one of my favorite teachers I've ever taken! Would definitely take again!

Comment:
This class is titled "cyber security and loss prevention". Rather than teach about anything relevant, she rambles on about physical security every class. Tbh I don't think she can define cyber security. Even the book she selected focuses on issues of physical security, and she uses powerpoints made by the book.

She is nice and all but I was not a fan of the way she teaches. She just kind of talks rather than teaches and seems to make it up as she goes. Lecture was really boring but she did let us pick the format for our tests which was nice.

Rude, cold and unwelcoming to students who are not Crim majors. Focuses more on grammatical errors than actual concept. Uses favoritism.

Awesome Prof! This Cybercrimes course was exciting on it's own. I took this as 3 weeks over winter term online. Fast paced, but you will learn a lot, and she gives awesome assignments and plenty of thorough feedback. Take her!
