If you're a pre-med like me and care about you're GPA, do not take this professor for Writing II. I worked my ass off this quarter, but I just got a B. I was thinking I was in the A- to A range though. The grading is collective work between the professor and TA's, so I doubt there would be an easy/lenient TA. Otherwise, if you don't mind getting a B, go ahead and take her because the workload is normal and she is nice as well as the TA's. But damn... I'm pissed

Fall 2022 - Take this class if you like Kafka and like talking about existential stuff and all the crazy things Kafka thought up. Komar is a great professor and knows a lot about Kafka, and chose good stories to read. The class is pretty simple and isn't a ton of reading a week, and the kafkaesque story at the end is fun. I recommend as a fun Fiat Lux. For full review of the class and more description, see my doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15vILblHwWrnV7KnB-sOFzTRnQE2QPA7nmHxj4gdNKBU/edit?usp=sharing

I had Prof Komar for German 50B and she is very good. I didn't much like what we read, and lots of reading, but she was a very good lecturer on the readings. Her tests were totally fair with no surprises. If you paid attention and went to class all the readings make sense. I recommend her to anyone!

I love Professor Komar. Yes, there is a lot of reading, but as long as you read enough of it to get a good grasp of the concepts and plot she is really good about filling in the blanks. Also, she made a point to make sure that all of the readings are connected. She is always welcoming if you go into her office hours and will go out of her way to help you. I thought she was very good at organizing her lectures and making sure that everyone's comments and opinions were incorporated into her teaching.
