Comment:
Known to make students cry and encourage them to drop out of the program. If you are a gifted designer but aren't repackaging the kind of design she likes, you're in for a rough time. Openly prejudiced towards other disciplines and tracks.

Comment:
Lives up to the The famous rumor she knocked over a freshmans project from the table to the ground. She left saying its probably better than it was before shes rude and cant tell the difference between asian girls nor does she try. I cant say she is not a good designer but def does not have the personality quality of a professor.

Be prepared to answer the question, "So how would you happen upon this?" or "Where does this product live?" literally every class. She will give feedback on your project to you one day, and say the exact opposite the next day.

Comment:
Disrespectful, unkind, and unpleasant. Gives unconstructive criticism and meaningless feedback. Discourages passion for design.

Comment:
she has her favorites, also won't give you feedback until the very end, when its just too late to do anything .... also a direct quote from freshman yr "make sure you drink lots of water", this was her only advice before the entire class pulled an all-nighter before the project deadline

she has a serious attitude problem, and needs to get a real design job before she continues forcing students to do pointless projects.

Comment:
she means well, but she's really hard to understand, and is more interested in the experimental than the practical. she also has a hard time giving constraints to a project and sometimes they are unreasonable, for instance we were assigned a video project to be displayed in a gallery, but she get a gallery or see if we had access to video cams. :(

Comment:
You better agree with her. Not interested in the practical aspects of design, Kristin is more into the theoretical crap. Not hard to understand - she went straight from university education to university faculty - never had a real-world job.

Comment:
the semester was very structured but her focus was way out there and she seemed extremely interested in the meaning of projects. she is a 'driven' person and expects you to be too. creative.
