Comment:
I've had Professor D for a couple of classes and absolutely love her. I always recommend that everyone take her. She is a tough grader and the higher level the course, the more she expects. She is very funny and caring. She really would do anything to help her students succeed. Lots of reading, but worth it. Take her if you can.

Prof. DeGregorio is an extremely knowledgeable political science scholar. Emphasized "political power" in the course "political power and american public policy". Extremely helpful during office hours. Class was in discussion format, so come ready to speak.

Comment:
She was really disorganized and used totally out of date books. No one was ever sure what to do. She's really nice and very enthusiastic, but if you're looking for clear instructions and organization look somewhere else.

One of my favorite professors at AU. Yes the readings can be boring and the topic can be tedious, but she is excited by her topic and her passion is a joy to see. Wonderful person, good professor.

I took Prof. Degregorio 13 years ago for a graduate class and she was one of the very best professors that I ever had. I have a terrific career today because of professors like her. I am thrilled to hear she is still teaching. Her students are lucky and should be grateful to be learning from someone like her.

Very Smart Professor, but not very cohesive as far as lectures and assignments go. The general consensus among our class was that nobody understood exactly what it was she expected. Good guest speakers. I only recommend this class if you're going to become a lobbyist or issue advocate.

Great Professor - have had her for a couple of classes now and plan to take her again. Isn't as clear as she could be, but she cares more about her students than any other prof I've had. Grades harder on assignments than on your final grade. Makes you work extremely hard (re: long term paper), but it is all worth it in the end. Take her!

she will remind you of a second grade teacher but she is the hardest grader i have ever had. She is nice but will fail you in a heart beat and the stuff she is teaching she forgets you are not a grad student...don't take her

Comment:
I can't believe she is getting so much praise! I took her congress and Leg Behavior class and think she is by far the worst prof I have had at AU. Boring, unclear, plays favorites - uggh. Her testing style was really off the wall, as well. I would recommend you stay as far away from her as possible.

Very reading intensive. She can be helpful, but she still is unclear about what you exactly need to understand. Too bad this class was required to do an internship.

I'm interested in the subject, but no thanks to her. She offers the weakest political arguments in class, it's frustrating. Just give her what she wants and you'll be a favorite.

This prof is more interested if we learn which author says what than if we understand what the author is trying to say. She seems to not really care about our class and it shows with lectures and out TA (no insult to TA's out there).

Wow. she is basically just awesome. Extremely understanding with students one on one and always more than willing to clarify and help her students understand. Really wants her students to actually learn the material.

Wow is she an awful prof. Grading is arbitrary at best. Comes down to a big game of favorites at the end anyway. I was never blown away by her knowledge of anything, and I actually thought that she didnt seem to know what she was talking about at times. If you can, skip this class and this prof.
