Comment:
Prof. Foley is generally good for lower level courses. But in higher level courses where the scope is more specific, she is disorganized. Sometimes the information she would teach was contrary to the textbook and other courses. When asked why the math she used to calculate my final grade seemed to be wrong she was unhelpful and defensive.

Comment:
Professor Foley was a good prof. She is passionate about Roman history, and the lectures are presented in an interesting and engaging way. The tests were decent, as long as you put in work and study the lecture notes you will do well. My only complaint is that she doesn't post anything online, so you must go to class or miss out on valuable info.

Comment:
Although Dr. Foley was very kind and told great stories about her own excavations I found this course to be relatively boring. focus on only a few sites in Greece was slightly disappointing, and her lectures put me to sleep. I would only take this course if you are seriously considering a career in archaeology

Comment:
Anne Foley is definitely one of my favourite professors. Lectures were enjoyable since she's passionate about Archaeology and tells many personal stories. Course only consisted of two slide tests and one small easy essay. No exam in fall 2015 because she didn't feel like giving one. Textbook was unnecessary because lectures were very clear.

Great prof. she is very interested in what she teaches and always willing to help students or talk with you about anything you don't understand. She polled the class and tried to be fair when assigning deadlines and had a few optional projects for mark boosters. Marks very quickly and its easy to get a good grade if you go to class.

Comment:
Roman history, what can I say? She goes a bit fast at times but it is very easy to follow. You must attend class and take notes, she tests you on things she says and you won't find it in the book (don't buy it, its useless). If you go to every class and read your notes before exams, there is no reason for you to get below a 90.

worst prof ever. exam and midterms are hard to study for when she uses "none of the above" on every single multiple choice...

Professor Foley is a very outgoing and fun prof to have. She make the material interesting and shows a great deal of enthusiasm. The class this year was a multiple choice tests which made it easier to study for, but the exam was more difficult. So, be prepared to put effort into it as it is not as easy as I expected, but most students do well.

Corny jokes aside,she makes the lectures fun and enjoyable. As long as you take good notes and pay attention you should do fine as everything is in her lectures.

Comment:
She is so silly and cute, I hate having to miss her class. She is so clear with her material and seems to really love Roman history. She treats historical figures like characters in a book which makes it easier to follow than a chonology of events. Her tests are the appropriate level of difficulty. I have no complaints about my marks.

A nice lady who tells lots and lots of corny jokes, but her tests and exams are out of nowhere - things that came up multiple times on the exam I couldn't find in any of my notes or the textbook.

What a joke . . . Foley's style makes you feel like you're back in public school. She makes a potentially interesting course a total waste of time and money.
