Comment:
Had her for both 285, 434 theory classes and also constitutional law with a gender topic. Take her only if you like political theory prior to class, do not expect her to instill that interest in you. A's ARE possible, i've gotten 3. Just take her interpretation of the texts, memorize quotations to back that interp. up, & always show up hand raised.

Comment:
...one of the most uncompromising professors ive ever met. And she has her TA grade your work, so basically her teaching has nothing to do with what you get in the class because it's all based on the ta's interpretation. do not take this class if your looking to boost your GPA... she's stuck in her old ways.

She is great. Just pay attention and take good notes. Will force you to think for yourself, hoever, so not an easy A. But if you do no want to work, why are you in college?

her 403 may be hard, but she makes 285 pretty easy.everthing you need to know she gives you in lecture, you can get away with cliff's notes for the readingg (even though they're interesting), and you meet with the TA's in groups which clarify things and get you ready for the exams...exams are essays and the class isn't bad!

Comment:
very hard teacher, very hard class, very hard tests, lots and lots of reading of supreme court decisions(obviously not fun). if you can, avoid this class and this teacher. although she is extremely smart, she is unorganized and all over the place. i give her a thumbsdown

Comment:
though very knowledgable, she is still the worst prof i have ever had. her grading is unfair. she is all over the place in class. expects you to participate in class, then sometimes belittles you. not approachable, not interesting at all. get this-blamed students for not having book when bookstore sold out!

Comment:
this professor is AWFUL. she has absolutely no personality, she's SO unnecessarily rude, she hates you if you dont participate but she makes you feel stupid if you do. plus she has no idea what she's talking about. i would advise NEVER taking her.

Comment:
I've dropped soap in a prison shower before, and I'll say this, I'd definitely rather sit in Goldstein's class. The lady knows her stuff. If your lazy and don't want to do the work, don't bother. But if your interested and want to get the most out of your parents money instead of wasting it on Sue Davis and the like take her class. It's worth it.

I would aviod her if possible. Her lectures were a waste of time. She is almost a week behind in the syllabus. Very intelligent and very nice lady but I won't be taking her again. I feel the grading was a bit unfair.

Comment:
At first, I thought I could escape this class with just doing the minimum readings. Not the case at all. This course forced me to put forth more effort and, although she is a hard grader, you walk out of that class a better student. Incredibly intelligent as well. I highly recommend her for any POSC class.

If you are serious about school, take any class you possibly can with this woman. She is very intelligent and well educated. Whatever bad things have been said about her were by people who obviously don't put any effort into school and expect to get good grades. You may have to work hard but it will only pay off in the end.

listen, when you take this level course you have to expect that it will be difficult and it was. But she is a great teacher and although the course is centered around you teaching yourself I did learn a lot form her. If you are a serious student, take as many classes with her as you can. Ryan secrest out.
