Reviews of professor Elizabeth Hughes

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I took BIOL 1020 in person. Professor's tests are relatively easy. Be prepared for tons of reading, says in the syllabus that almost anything can be tested on including questions so be sure to know it all. She does not give cheat sheets. Regurgitates everything from the textbook but i would still recommend buying one for the exam. Overall 4/5.

STAY AWAY IF POSSIBLE. It was really heavy course especially in summer term.

A lot of the stuff that was on the midterms is not covered by her. Her classes are insanely boring and not engaging in the littlest bit. She reads off the powerpoints and if youre lucky explains a diagram. She seemed  nice the one time I talked to her however she really does not care to add things to her slides that may be on the midterms :(

She's young so she's very in touch with college students, very funny, and lectures are always interesting. You NEED to go to lectures because she doesn't put any material online and everything in lecture will be on the exams. Participation is also important because it counts for your grade. Her class made me interested in sociology; she's the best.

Dr. Elizabeth Hughes is an alright professor, but I can only recommend her if she is your last choice for a MBIO (or any other subject) prof! If you have the ability to, avoid her! Lectures are boring and utterly useless. She just reads from her disorganized powerpoint slides. Maybe she made the slides so hard to read, so people would show.

Dr. Hughes is one of my favorite professors as she shows a great passion for the course and cares about the students taking it. Showing up to lectures, taking notes, and reading the assigned materials is how to get a good grade in this class and actually learn the content. I loved this class and found it so interesting and applicable to my life.

She says attendance isn't mandatory, but if you can't come for whatever reason then you'll miss tons of content that will be important for the two tests. Only a few assignments and most of them will dock you 20% of the grade for a small mistake. She's very passionate about the subject and good at teaching it, but she seems uncaring about grading.

Decent class for the first 1/2 of the semester but it was a lot of work for a Gen Ed. If she removed the papers from the class it would have been a nice Gen Ed. Unfortunately she had to leave for the second 1/2 of the semester, converting the class to an online class. The power points provided for us were poorly made and not up to a college level.

This class is very lecture heavy. There's a lot of information to soak in. There aren't very many grades too. If you don't do well on one assignment, it drops your grade a bit. She has a lot of readings and expects you to have read the article before coming to class. There's not much homework. The class is manageable, but a little more extra work
