Professor Vinny is a great instructor, who focuses on hands on labs, is generally lenient for grades, and runs the school Cyber Security competition group.

Personally I like Professor Vinny. She's seasoned and really knows her material, she's very available to help you with what you need help with, she makes what is expected of you very clear, she gives you feedback on labs where you made a mistake. I took her for 142 and again now for 224 (both Linux classes). I think she's great.

Good luck. Honestly, good luck. She will read off the slide and you are going to basically teach yourself from the book (I didn't buy it, get it off amazon.) I am not learning anything from her lecture, is the most boring class. Uses LDB.

This professor is not one that you should take. This is because she only helps the students that are kiss asses and everyone else is on their own. I have reached out to her several times and have received NO help whatsoever. If there is another choice for the same class but different professor choose the other one NOT her.

She always just lectures and she will go off on tangents and no one can understand what is going on. Basically this whole class we have had to teach ourselves and she makes it very hard to pass.
