Fall 2022 - This professor has a very good personality and really engaging in class and made going to class kind of fun. The only issue I have with her is the way she grades essays. Her rubrics can be very vague and she expects you to meet her expectations which are often very ambiguous. She "helps" you edit your rough draft before you turn in the final essay; however, she doesn't fully explain what she's looking for from you. After taking her class, I feel very insecure about my writing which is what I thought was my strength before starting college :(

Spring 2017 - I write short stories myself and this class teaches me writing can be not fun at all and extremely subjective. Popham will change the theme of your paper and tell you sentence by sentence what SHE wants in there but not what YOU want. One person out of the whole class gets A. If you want to torture yourself just go take it and spend more than 10 hours a week and pray for a "B and above".
