Reviews of professor Amelia Reigstad

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I really enjoyed Amelia as a professor. She gives good feedback, and I learned a lot about PR writing. Tough grader, but worth it. I would recommend taking this class with her!

Dig Strat could be taken by a toddler and they'd probably pass. Unless you've been living under a rock your whole life, the content is very elementary. However, she is absolutely awful at explaining project instructions and even when the class is collectively confused, she gets upset and defensive. Arguably one of the worst profs in the j school.

I understand it is important to work hard and be held accountable but this professor does it in a manner that feels defensive and passive-aggressive. Instructions are vague or incomplete and yet rubrics and final grades on assignments are STRICT. When the class collectively struggles it is assumed we did not read or work hard enough.

I appreciate the experience and real clients Amelia brings to class. However: she is terrible at explaining project directions, and blames students for 'misunderstandings.' Tough on typos, when her own examples (!!!) and class presentations are full of them. I'm happy to be held to a high standard, but only if she's holding herself to it, too.

Explains the assignments well and although some of them are tough, they arent THAT hard and you can ask for guidance. Quizzes are a piece of cake if you go to class. She is also very accessible outside of class during office hours if you want to chat, have questions or need additional guidance.
