Reviews of professor Laura Pangallozzi

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
She is definitely passionate about geography, but she just reads off slides so lectures are extremely boring. We convinced her to post the slides so attendance wasn't mandatory. She did random attendance at the beginning of the semester though. Very boring, but our final was open everything like we used Google. Her dog's very cute though.

Dr. Pangallozzi is very knowledgeable. But her GEO 101 class involved hundreds of pages of reading each week, and tests were oddly specific. Also sometimes lectures were a bit confusing, complicated, and unrelated to textbook material. If you want to earn an A, you must work at least 2-3 hours per day for this course.

Bad lectures with little information, you have to buy her lab manual and then retype it by hand. All you really have to do to get a good grade is complete the labs, though. Don't bother buying the books. Maybe she's better in upper-level courses, but I really just learned absolutely nothing.

took this class for an easy A gen ed and it was exactly that. 50% of the grade was labs which were graded essentially on completion. the professor herself is all over the place but it doesn't really affect anything. the lab templates were posted the day it was due but they're very doable. the TA's were really nice.

Like many of the other reviews say, she is VERY disorganized and changes her mind daily about assignments/work without informing anyone about the changes. She grades a bit harshly and isn't very understanding towards student issues, especially when the issue is in regards to her. I didn't find her lectures informative at all. Wouldn't recommend.
