Someone who was hired just because she was an Indian (thank god she left!) She and her husband, Ashok Nyamagouda, were nuisance not just for students but even for colleagues. Her husband would make excessive comments on others clothes, cooking skills when there were pot luck parties, alumni meetups, etc. Her annoying daughters would hit other children, terrorize them and are absolutely disgusting.

If there was ever an useless person to be born on earth it would be her. Super annoying, intimidating, and teaching being the least concerns in her mind. Rumor had it she was hired just by being intimate with many Indian professors in the department.

One of the worst and most intimidating instructor we ever had. She was more concerned about showing off her superiority just like other Indian instructors in the dept. She would endlessly talk about how her entire engineering class from India had moved to US and considered Americans dumb. And how she was considered a beauty in India due to her pale skin. The Indian profs even had a code 'Kalloos' for African Americans. She would endlessly talk about how Americans need to be family oriented when she herself was living separately from her husband. Extremely interfering in students personal lives and less interested in academics

Never had I been in a class where I was so bored. She just demonstrates she understands the concepts, but teaches nothing. When someone asked for any clarification, she would just yell at them. Plus her accent is very hard to understand. Rumour had it that she was hired just because she's an Indian and was overtly friendly with dept head who happens to be an Indian as well.

Extremely rude and uncivilized. Her teaching style is like training animals in a circus. Maybe she comes from a town where such a teaching style is normal!
