Comment:

I would recommended that everyone take at least one class with Lockyer. She is a tough grader but my writing improved greatly with her class because she doesn't just hand out grades. I really had to think about what and how I was writing.

Come to class prepared, ready to participate, and do some serious analyzing and thinking before writing your papers. I found it helpful to take lots of notes in her class and to compare them with a reliable friend. She doesn't give grades; you earn them, but you will learn a ton. She is sweet, kind, challenging, and inspirational.

I personally love Judy. Her class is pretty laid back, just do the reading (she will have no problem assigning 150 pages a day though) and at least say one thing a day and you will be fine. It can be really fun. She's kooky but smart. She grades papers hard so always meet with her at least once before you turn it in to make sure you're on the right track.

Comment:

Race in American Literature: Despite not doing as well as I wanted to in class, this is one english professor I would recommend to all students. She is smart, funny, and will demand you think. Reading is thick, but manageable. Discussion based course means you actually need to read (unlike some Lit classes I've had). Tough on papers, but worth it.

Really cool and down to earth. Will challenge your thinking. Really cares about her students and their progress in her class. I've watched her change her teaching style numerous times in class to fit our needs and attempt to capture the attention of coffee-less students. Read the book and you'll survive if you talk b/c class is discussion based.

Took a lot of classes with Dr. Lockyer. Kicked my butt; however, I got so much out of her classes I kept coming back for more. Thanks!

Comment:

Very enthuiastic and supportive. However, I was not a huge fan of her curriculum choices for American Novel - just because women and writers of color have been historically excluded from the canon does not mean they all deserve a space next to Melville, Faulkner, Ellison, and Morrison.

I had Dr. Lockyer first semester, freshmen year. She tore my writing apart, but with her help I became a better writer and text analyzer. I will always be appreciative. She is tough, yet as kind as that sweet Southern voice of hers.
