Reviews of professor Anne Porter

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Anne really just wants you to succeed. She gives you plenty of opportunities to do well in the class (you write an essay and do a creative costume project). The exam is super fair, she posts slides and most of the lectures are based on class discussion. That being said I didn't go to class often and I still got an A. Highly recommend.

True gem. She calls it as she sees it, and is caring. Super excited about her work, and her lectures are great. Best lecture featured her debunking outlandish alien theories re: monumental architecture. Great variety of projects and the final was exactly what she said it was going to be. No textbooks, 2+ articles prep per lecture that you read.

I loved my class with Professor Porter. She was kind and clearly passionate about teaching. This was my first "humanities-based" course and it was fantastic. There is some reading and you must go to class but the exams and projects are very fair. I'm looking forward to taking more of her classes in the future. (Class average B+)

This course started off a bit dry but ended up becoming one of the best things I've taken all year. I would definitely take another NMC course again. I really liked how we learned different takes on certain artifacts or concepts. The assignments were also very unique and actually fun to do.
