Reviews of professor Andrea Rudser-Rusin

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I took this class as an elective and it was the worst decision of my life. She assigns 50+ page readings and then gives pop quizzes on them. The textbook is an ebook that comes along with modules for each chapter. Each module has over 100 questions. There are also 4 exams throughout the quarter. I should not be working this hard for an elective.

The class average for every single quiz has been a 30% and she doesn't see anything wrong with that. Avoid at all costs.

Andrea seems to mean well but she gives no real effort in the students learning the material. Most classes you sit in silence with her staring at the class waiting for someone to answer whatever question she just asked. One positive of the class is the guests that she brings in to talk to the class. I'd say that's when I really learned the most.

Don't take PE 273 if you have an eating disorder. Calories and physical activity were counted, no way to get out of the assignment. She also tried to make discussions about eating disorders "light and fun", but it just came off really poorly. Also, doesn't respond to student's mental health needs! The information was important and interesting tho.

Lectures are boring and hard to sit through. She's unprofessional and bragged about being in Hawaii while in a pandemic. If you can pick a different professor for this class I would.

Pop Quiz averages have not gone above a 35%. None of the assignments are explained clearly. This class is way harder than it needed to be.

This class is super dangerous for anyone who has ever struggled with an eating disorder or body insecurity. Students are forced to count calories and then talk about the results in front of the class. She gave me unsolicited diet advice without knowing anything about me or my medical history and she just assumed I ate horribly. Super condescending
