I loved professor Coolidge so much! She is a really tough grader but it's not hard to get at least a B in her class. She listens to what you have to say and answers questions easily. She is very passionate about her lectures and you can tell she really loves history. I am so glad I took professor Coolidge!

Professor Coolidge is a great professor but I wish she taught us how to write papers more at the start of the class because if you struggle you will struggle bad in her class. Her Exams are just 3 papers with the final paper being 25% of your grade. She is an amazing professor and will give you feedback. Participate and Read. Hard Class.

Professor Coolidge is a great professor! HSC 201 was heavy on papers and reading so make sure you are prepared for that if you choose to take this class. I visited her office hours to get advice before each paper, which I would definitely recommend. I learned so much in this class. She keeps the class engaging with participation opportunities :)

GREAT professor. Lectures make you want to listen, but you have to take notes on everything in order to get all the information down in order to write papers. Class is made to build on itself to make sure you get everything done. TONS OF READING and you must do it to understand and succeed. Worth taking if you want a caring professor.

Prof Coolidge is a great teacher who knows what she is talking about. The only downside to her class is the large amounts of reading that has to be done and the weekly quizzes over said reading-- which is expected for a history class of such magnitude.

I love love love Dr. Coolidge! She is so sweet and considerate and cares a lot about her students. She wants you to do well and understand and appreciate the material.

Coolidge was an amazing professor. Always worked with me when i needed help or needed help with my grade. Always pushed you to get the grade she felt you deserve. She really loves what she does and she puts that into her work, which is very noticeable. 10/10 would totally recommend

Coolidge is a great professor, she is the best prof out of the 3 for this sequence. This class is very extensive and will require a lot of work if you want a good grade. 2 essays which she allows rewrites on and she provides good feedback so you know exactly what you need to change. 1st semester is definitely harder than 2nd. Doesnt put in grades.

Worst professor at GVSU. She was not helpful at all during office hours. I would never ever take another class from this teacher in my lifetime.

Prof. Coolidge is fantastic. She knows her material. There is a lot of reading but it's needed to understand. I learned a ton in her class. She is more that willing to help all the time. Very supportive, WELL organized, her lecture supports the process for writing the papers, helpful if you que in to that. You know what she expects from the start.

Was great but you needed to be there everyday and we usually did some sort of group discussion o some sort. You will need to read the textbook or you won't pass. No tests just three really easy papers that you have way more than enough time to write. The final was an essay to two or three questions and you get a notecard of info to answer them

Prof. Coolidge is a great professor but be prepared for a lot of reading and writing. For a gen. ed class you do a lot of writing. You grade basically depends on the three papers you write plus the final exam. Expect to read 20-30pgs for hw. We had quizzes about every week, but are fairly easy if you take notes on the reading. NO TESTS:)

Dr. Coolidge is one of the nicest, most helpful professors; you can tell she cares deeply about you and her class. Her class is tough however if you put in the work you should be fine on the papers. My only complaints are that there is too much reading for a 3 credit class, and it is unreasonable to grade participation and attendance as is done.

Professor Coolidge is amazing! I loved her and this class! She is a tough grader, but that's because she genuinely wants you to succeed. She is always willing to help you out (seriously, go to her office hours). You will read a lot, but you will also learn so much from the discussions. I couldn't have asked for a better professor!

She's an amazing teacher. Really does well to keep you interested in the class, and knows what she's talking about. She's super perceptive of her students, and will push back assignments if she thinks you're overworked.

Dr. Coolidge is a wonderful woman and professor. The class is a lot of work, but very rewarding. Grade derives from participation, reading quizes, and 4 papers. She definitely knows what she's talking about and really cares about the grades her students recieve.
