Comment:
Such a kind hearted person. She is very challenging when it comes to grading, but if your willing to put in the effort you'll be ok. She is very willing to work with you and get to know you on a more personal level. She is obviously extremely knowledgeable about the material she teaches and there is a lot to gain from taking her class.

Comment:
Probably one of nicest people out there but that being said she is one of the hardest and most biased professors on this campus. Never in my life have I worked so hard in a class only to receive mediocre grades. As for the class it consists of "fluff" and we talk about the same topics and themes every time we meet. Good luck if you take her!!!

Comment:
Professor Murphy is a nice professor, but not a very nice grader. Is one of the toughest paper graders I've dealt with (partially b/c shes the department head) She is very light and fluffy about some very intense topics, she isn't too accepting of others opinions and the notes she writes on the board have no purpose. This class was a bit confusing.

When you take this class as a gen-ed you really do not think it is serious until you find out she's the department head and she rips your papers to shreds; nice challenge but really hard; makes you print out a ton of articles but there is no book; Really democratic and really earthy/peacy/rainbows and butterflies; really interesting class though!

This professor is so hard! Do not expect to be graded well or fairly. I had to buy one cheap book for this class but she made us print about 350+ pages for articles. Hardest class I've had so far, and not worth my time.

Extremely nice! Very helpful! She does push you a lot in class and in your writing. You do a lot of revising on each paper you do which really helps. If you just show up to class, and do your work - you should be fine. You just need to edit your papers when she tells you to.

I thought i was pretty good at writing, until i took her class. She's extremely nice and will definitely put in the effort to help you, but she pushes you to the limit and forces you to analyze your writing beyone what you expected. Helpful, but very hard

I had already rated her when I read the other reviews. I worked hard. VERY hard. I got an A. I'm glad she doesn't throw them around too easily. It validates my work that much more. I think she liked me as a person but mostly because I took the work seriously and was prepared to discuss the reading for each class.

Had her for a summer course at UMass. Literature & Political Imagination. Not only does she challenge you to look further into the texts you are reading but she provided great writing tips that I used to help me excel in later classes. Don't try any bulls**t with her though. She, like all good professors, knows when you have not doe the work.

She's a tough grader and has high expectations, but she really pushes you to meet those expectations and make you a better reader and writer.

Enthusiastic and helpful. I imagine you'll like her class if you like English. Otherwise, you might just feel bitter cuz of her ridiculous grading. I think it's impossible to get an A- or better in any essays from her class, I have yet to know anyone who did. I still get B's though, so she's not impossible. Take her only if you like a challenge.

I found her to be a VERY hard grader, she knows what she is talking about, but she always wants more from you. I havent been able to get above a C+ yet.

I feel like I'm a good writer, but I also believe she's a very fair grader. If it wasn't for the fact that it was english, which I'm not good at, she's a great teacher none the less.

DID NOT LIKE HER! You'll get a C no matter how hard you try, especially if she doesn't like you. Some people write well, others write the best they can. The latter is screwed in this class. Brought my GPA down, kept me off Dean's List!
