Comment:
Dr. Clinefelter kinda tells you what she wants in a round-about way and then nails you for not giving her what she expected. Tough on citations. This is not a film study class but you will write a review of the film, personally I didnt care for the film, gave it a less than 5 star review and my grade reflected my film review.

Dr. Clinefelter was made to teach! She knows how to effectively deliver information to students as she molds them to become true historians. I enjoyed every class I took from her and though she requires lots of reading and writing, her book selections are excellent and her feedback on papers elevate students' ability to write.

Dr. Clinefelter is amazing. She gives easy extra credit opportunities on the discussion boards- which aren't boring by the way- and she grades fairly. There are two papers, but if you follow her instructions exactly you will get a good grade. Highly recommend, just read the PowerPoints and participate and you'll be good.

Dr. C is the best prof I've ever had. She is so clear about all her assignments and is a very fair grader. She gives great feedback and really cares about class experience. Pretty easy assignments, sometimes her lectures are long but if you are a good note taker they aren't bad.

Dr. C was the only reason I woke up to go to a lecture at 9 am. She loves teaching her subject and she also cares about her students and she makes that very clear. Her tests are all essay based but if you come to her interesting lectures youll get an easy A.

I absolutely love Dr. Clienfelter! She makes class so interesting and is incredibly funny, understanding, and approachable. She is by far one of the best professors I've had at UNC and she makes me wish I was a history major so I could take more of her classes. She is very passionate about her field and overall an amazing professor

Dr. C clearly cares about the subject she is teaching and this makes her class so much more engaging. She teaches history clearly, and she tries to make it as interesting as possible. She also doesn't make you buy/read a textbook!

She is an amazing historian and there is no reason why you would want to skip her class. Even the lectures she says are "the most boring" are incredible and she is the best at what she does.

Joan is the best history teacher I have ever had! She will use multiple examples to help you understand the time period. She will relate revolutionary subjects together and she really engage students in her lectures. I definitely recommend taking her class.

Dr. Clinefelter is awesome, I had her for western civilization 1600-present or whatever and i loved it. She was understanding when I asked for extensions, and her few assignments she gives are kinda interesting.

Dr. C is very passionate about history, which makes the class really interesting. She has a great personality and is funny. Attendance isn't mandatory, but the class is definitely easier if you show up and she notices when people haven't shown up. Grading isn't too harsh and is based off of midterm, final, and about 4 papers.

Ignore the passive voice. Joan Clinefelter makes you look forward to coming to class. Her lectures leave you wanting more and will genuinely strike your interest. I wish all the rest of my professors were as interesting as her. Also, I don't think any other professor cares more about their area of expertise than she does and it is very apparent.

Hands down, the best professor at UNC. I am not alone in this opinion either - everyone I know has said nothing, but phenomenal praise, and rightly so. She will help you in any way she can and truly loves her content area and can make it so approachable and interesting! Learned more in her class, than I have in all my other UNC classes combined!

Dr. Clinefelter makes Western Civ. fun. She doesn't assign much homework, and what she does assign she makes sure is very clear and easy to understand. Same with her tests.
