 I generally enjoyed the professor and this course. She is always late and rambles a lot, but it's usually pretty funny, even if she doesn't intend for it to be. The whole course basically revolves around group work, so if you have a bad group then it sucks. But all you ever do is talk with your group, take a few quizzes, and give presentations. I got a good grade and she seems pretty easy to please with PowerPoints... she likes videos, cartoons, funny pictures, etc.

 Pros: Easy
Cons: Group work
I never had a problem with her.. I actually think her rambling is kind of funny- I did actually learn a thing or two and aside from having a crappy group to work with it was a pleasant and easy way to earn an A. Just put some funny pictures in your presentation to keep her entertained and you are set with the extra points

 Participate, do what she asks, and you will get an A. The workload is not hard, the material is not hard. She's fun, a little crazy, but definitely funny. I loved her, even though the material was kind of boring..

 Easy grades. Midterms are easy enough and your guaranteed an A on the presentation if you throw in some kind of music or video, she really gets impressed by it. We did a stat packet in class so thats a guaranteed A if you just write what she does.
Class is boring as hell and if you have five unexcused misses you instantly fail, something she forgets to tell you until week 9. However she pretty much admitted she gives everybody about +10 to final grade.
Take her for an easy A.

 The class is not hard but EXTREMELY hard to sit through. She rambles on and on and cannot stay on topic. It is also impossible to study for exams, you just have to get lucky and be good at guessing. Do not expect to learn anything. But as long as you show up you can come out with a decent grade, you will just want to go crazy in that class because she is very hard to follow and listen to.

 Is consistently late to every single class. It can get a little boring, but she tries to make it interesting with survey's etc. Very easy grader and knows a lot about the subject. One thing I did like was the fact that she does not require you to read a whole chapter. She picks the parts you specifically need to know for the class and doesn't make you read the whole book for nothing.

 I had her for 250 and it was a cakewalk and the course is a complete joke and she truly believes that it is difficult for some reason.
I decided to take her for 350 to get the A again and I almost regret doing so. I just can't stand being in that class, it drives me crazy. She comes in 15-30 minutes late. Rambles about the ADJUSTABLE lectern being lowered for another 10 minutes. Seriously, she gets incredibly mad at someone for lowering a lectern. It's like getting mad at someone for lowering a computer chair in lab...just raise it back up.
If you can put up with it, take her for the easy A. But it nearly drove me insane.

 Easy A class. She rambles a lot, and mumbles rather heavilly. The plus side is that you don't need to listen to her to get an A.
Also, she never showed up less than 15 minutes late to her own class, all term. And several times she was 30 minutes or more late to her own class, which means the class is really easy.

 What a joke. She took away the third test and replaced it with a statistics practice sheet that she did for us in class. Eaaaasy A, but the class is boring as hell.

 Good teacher, the class was basically all about making up your own survey and presenting results of giving it to the class. She allowed alot of freedom in coming up with a topic and was always willing to help if you needed it.

 Had here Spring 03 for Soc 250. Good and easy teacher. One of those teachers, that wants you to get an A in her class. Class is 3 tests (that are not long at all) and a presentation or 2, that she grades very easly.
