Comment:
She's nice and a fair grader. She spoon feeds the class, and the study guides are the test. She's hard to understand though she talks like this, "now thith ithh a thothial pwobwen." 3 hour classes with her can be unbearable.

Comment:
I got an A- in the class but disliked every hour of it. She's very one-sided, & very difficult to understand with her speech impediment. She's all over the place--no slideshow notes, just verbal for 3 hours and we weren't allowed to use laptops. It was a tedious class and I am so happy it's over. I don't recommend her. Bonus: lots of extra credit.

She is a very nice woman. She does have hearing and speaking problems but it's not her fault! Exams are easy once you make flashcards. Only 4 tests and tons of extra credit.

Comment:
Kathy is really a sweet woman. She is kind and fair. The class is a bore though. She offers a review which is the test, but you must use the textbook to complete these reviews as the tests are often harder than the review suggests. Attend class for 3 point extra credit quizzes (up to 24 points a semester). A good class with low stress level.

I actually liked the class. Although it was kind of a snooze to sit through it was not challenging and she was often times amusing. The study guides are the test so be prepared to study those!! Its not as easy of an A as some people are saying. So be careful

Comment:
Not to sound mean, but she is almost un-understandable if you don't sit near the front of the room. Very easy tests if you look over the material, and offers tons of extra credit. She is very feminist and liberal, but most Sociology professors are too.

She has problems speaking clearly and even more problems hearing. Try to sit near the front of the room. She is very easy and offers a lot of extra credit. Only 4 tests in this class. East A if you study/ read the book.

Comment:
Honestly, she's a nice person, but a horrible professor. She's unintelligible, and talks off topic so going to class is a waste of time. The reviews she e-mails, are the test questions, re-worded. Take the class if you want an easy A, but don't take it if you are actually interested in learning about sociology.

Great teacher in that she understands students have more classes than just hers. Study guides ARE the test, in almost exact order. Attendance is not mandatory, but extra credit is awarded for going sometimes, as well as multiple movies for extra credit papers. If you don't get an A in this class....I don't know what to say.

I love her!She is funny and entertaining. She wraps up the entire chapter clearly. As long as you pay attention in class and do the study guide you should get a good grade. It's really sad that people disrespect her so much. She has a hearing disability and people should take that into consideration.

Bad teacher, but easy class. If you want a GPA booster take it. Number one on the study guide is number one on the test so make sure you do the study guides and you will get an A. You don't have to go to class. Extra credit opportunity too.

Comment:
An easy A just like her SO101 class. I took the 1 night a week class. Normally lets out atleast an hour early except review days. attendance isn't necessary as long as u read the book and go to the reviews. W/ this class, my 16 credit semester only felt like a 12 credit load. I appreciate that she's one of the few that gives you a break by giving very basic reviews and tests.

She's really sweet and it's sad that very few people respect her. She is very knowledgable on what she teaches, but she's just very hard to understand. She is always willing to clear things up for you after class. If you can't make it for a test, she's very flexible with makeups. Read the book, go to the reviews, and you should get a decent grade.

She's a really nice lady; she'll go out of her way to help you if you need it. I feel kind of bad for her because people don't respect her enough to even show up and sit threw a whole class. Most of the class doesn't show up, and if they do they make sure there's not a test and then they leave.

Her lectures are pretty much worthless, but at least she gives you the test questions during review. Her exams come from the book, not from the lectures.

You'd have to be brain dead to not pass this class with at least a B. I don't think I ever listened during a lecture and she gives you every question on the test during review. I do feel bad that people take advantage of her hearing problems though.

Comment:
This class was a joke. She had NO control and during lectures she did nothing but read out of the book. On the final exam when someone asked a question she replied "i don't know i didn't write the test". Avoid!!
