First off, she scares the crap out of me. She is a intense, short little woman who has to be one of the smartest people I know. Her office hours are incredibly intimidating, but they will go well as long as you have your questions written down and organized. She doesn't make eye contact during lecture and don't expect her to unless you ask her a question. The topics she covers in her classes are very sensitive so she doesn't take likely to people that like to state obnoxious opinions and slam other people's views. Here are a few tips: - DON'T BE LATE. Really, unless you want her eyes to bore into your soul. - Never miss a lecture, she covers a lot. - She knows your name so don't dick around, not even on day one. - Don't be a know-it-all. You'll piss of the class and you'll annoy her. The final was a little rough, long and difficult. She grades pretty easily, so don't worry too much about it. TA's vary, but they all tend to find her a little intimidating. All in all, I think she is an excellent lecturer and will repeat herself until it is perfectly clear. She can get a little boring, but her occasional side jokes and stories are rather entertaining. I like her and I would definitely take her again... even though she scares me. NB: Non-philosophy majors, please don't see her office hours as an opportunity to spout about your theories behind the reasons for human existence.
