A Wonderful woman. What I liked about her is that she was friendly, personable, and very likable. She was so sweet, and was always light hearted in class. Some professors think it is imperative to be serious and pretentious and flaunt their intellect through strict discipline but she is an example of what it means to be gracious while still being respectable. You can tell she knows a lot about public health not because she brags about what she knows but she talks about her own research and experiences. I highly suggest taking her class! In terms of the class it was pretty simple: She had assigned memos/papers that were about 2-3 pages I believe and they were on any public health topic related to women. These memos were due every few weeks. We had a final 8-10 page paper on any women's health issue that was due the week before finals (which is great if you're trying to finish early. Other than that the class consisted of student presentations on whatever health topic the person chose to present. So each class there was usually just student presentations. I only wish we could've had less student presentations and that we had the chance to hear Prof Subramanian lecture or talk about significant/important health issues.
