My parents kicked me out of my house for a week because of Covid. I emailed her telling her what happened and asked if I could please turn in an assignment that was 1 day late for partial credit. She wouldnt accept it. Terrible woman who doesnt care about her students. ALSO, her tests are confusing :)

This professor makes the subject of communications interesting but not stressful. The group projects are engaging, but won't stress you out trying to complete them. There are multiple assignments during the week but they're not overwhelming or exhausting to complete. Taking it online was a plus too.

Professor Talbert is an excellent instructor. She's an effective teacher, and her teaching methods engage the students with the material in ways I haven't seen with other professors. She is very kind, receptive, and understanding with her students. If you can, I would take her for any COM class you can, and this is coming from an IT student!

Various things are graded to varying degrees in this class which I think my class really struggled to understand. While the portfolios of our career goals were pretty much pass or fail, the essays were actually looked at deeply. I really enjoyed Prof. Talbert even though sometimes the night class got exhausting. I would and will take her again!

Just be warned. Beth is a super nice woman, but my time in her class has shown me that she is horrible at explaining assignments and even worse at reminding you whats due. My advice? Get in a class group chat ASAP and for the love of God make a calendar of all the assignment due dates. Itll save your life. God speed.

Beth Talbert is a gem at Oakland University. Politics being what they are, she has quite a battle against the enclaves that exist at OU but cream rises to the top. She is articulate, intelligent, experienced and mitigated with her opinions. She promotes great discussions and her lectures are well worth the money. If given option, take Talbert.

Dr. Talbert is one of the best professors I have had at OU. She really knows her stuff and is very caring and kind to everyone. She teaches in a way that makes easy for everyone to understand. She understand that students have lives outside of school. You do have to work in her class though, but the work is worth it!

Beth has been my favorite professor ever. I literally love her. She genuinely loves her job and will do anything to help you succeed in school. I took her as an 8am and didn't have any regrets in the morning time because I knew Beth was going to be the highlight of my day. If I have the opportunity to take her again, I 100% will.

Beth is one of my favorite professors at Oakland so far. She has inspired me in so many ways. You will learn so much from her about life and relationship communication. She is such a kind and caring individual and is there for you no matter what. If you have the chance to take her class, do it, you will love everything she has to offer.

Not gonna lie I was super intimidated by Beth on the first day of class. She said not to let her face fool you, she is a harder grader. But, once I got to know her I learned she is so incredibly nice and accommodating. We had 2 exams, 3 essays, and 2 group projects. If you never need help she is always there. Definitely take her if you get a chance

This professor is one of the nicest you'll meet on campus and she couldn't be more understanding if you have anything going on in your life that distracts you or prevents you from doing your absolute best. She is there for you.

Professor Talbert is a natural at Public Relations. It is hard to get a read on the level of sincerity or just well rehearsed. She follows University protocol to the letter when tested. Possibly a career bureaucrat? Not a bad trait for a communications professor.

I love Beth. I can't even begin to tell you how wonderful of a person she is. If you're lucky enough to find a class she teaches open, register immediately! Don't pass it up, I've gained the most from professor Talbert. She is invaluable. Seriously. You gain more than just another class completed.
