Comment:
The material was fascinating but the analysis and discussion in class lacked even a fiber of thoughtfulness. Brooks plays favorites, allows some students to yap as long as they please, is an arbitrary grader, and has a condescending attitude towards her students. Also be prepared for 99% daffy theater major classmates that rarely do the readings.

Comment:
The first class of my two classes with Colette, How To Read A Play, was an excellent course. We examined plays about the American family. It was an overall easy and often fun class. My second class, Dramatic Literature, was more dense, but Colette is more than willing to offer help. Both were discussion-heavy with basic writing assignments.

i loved the way she taught, she was the clearest and most organized teacher of my first semester, she helped me look at things differently and i definitly learned a lot. she let you know exactly what was going on and i found that helpful. it seemed like everyone else hated her, though.

I loved Colette. Just the way she thought and went over the material opened up a whole new way of learning for me.

Comment:
Has nothing but contempt for her students while maintaining an egotistical attitude unrivaled by any teacher I have ever had before. Not only does she seem to loathe teaching(while believing she is fantastic at it),but she utterly fails to teach a goddamn thing to anyone. Her classes have no subjec

Seeing Theater - expect no effort from Colette, no syllabus, no feedback, no materials -- while nothing much happens in her class in the end she grades arbitarly and difficultly...

I rue the day that I signed up for her class. In the words of Milhouse, "not only am I not learning anything, I'm forgetting things I already knew."
