Pros: very professional and full of enthusiasm!
her knowledge was the most important when looking for a job - her class got me my job!
it was refreshing to have a professor who stays on time and ends class when it is scheduled.
Cons: she expects a lot, but i have to say her energy got me through the course
a lot of work
take her if you have a choice - she really helps you a lot and is so knowledgeable in her courses. her personality helps keep it light - the seniors even made a T-shirt with her now famous saying "I don't care what you want"! it's about the client.

Ada is great, and this isn't a pleasant class to begin with, but... eh. I appreciate that she takes all of her classes seriously, but you'll soon see that this class is pretty much a joke. It's supposed to be an introduction into your major, but if you're taking it at the same time as your Design class or any other art class it just seems unnecessary. There are a number of projects and presentations that you're required to do with a partner or a group, which honestly aren't that hard but they are constant. The nice thing about this class is that you're forced to go out into the city. At first it seems annoying but it's a nice excuse to visit some places you might not normally go - Old city for example. Just follow her directions and get things over with early on and you'll get out with a pretty easy A.

Pros: Energetic, good suggestions and crits, very detailed, helped me get my job
Cons: hard grader sometimes, expects a lot
take her if you can because she will help you the most. i didn't realize how important her classes were until i was working my self. i have e-mailed her many times since to ask about a real world issue in my job. she is great.
