Reviews of professor Lauren Todd

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
I wasn't expecting to enjoy this class as much as I did, but she turned out to be a great professor. We learned about a lot of interesting subjects, and the material was presented in a way that allowed us to focus on what interested us the most. There were no tests, and everything was graded fairly. The homework was fairly light.

she was a nice professor but honestly didn't teach us the whole semester it felt like. every week there were 3 discussion leaders which were the students, so basically the students ran the course the whole time. didn't learn a lot from the class tbh,but it was an easy A so if you're looking for an easy course your junior or senior year, i recommend

Pretty laid back professor. There was not a lot of work that we had to do which made the class 10x more manageable.

The class itself is pretty easy: weekly participation points for discussing readings, two analysis papers, midterm, final research paper. It's not hard to do well in the class, but students do the majority of the lecturing. She facilitates discussion based solely on the readings. Not the most fun class but she is wonderful!

Professor Todd held an interesting and interactive class. I genuinely enjoyed the movies we watched and the in-class discussions we had. She was very understandable with deadlines as well. I would definitely take another class with her!

Are you going to pass this class by sitting back and not working for your grade? No. But working to earn a good grade in this class is so worth it. You will learn so much and grow as a person. Lauren is lovely and smart and creates a safe learning environment. She is constanyly kind and affirming. Best WGSS professor Ive ever had.

I was excited to take this course as I thought it would be really interesting but the way it is taught drains all the fun out of it. Class time is spent just summarizing the books you read as a class and never really exploring the topics outside of the context of the books. She's nice but doesn't seem to have figured out quite how to teach yet.

3 movies a week and every 3 weeks there was a 5 page essay and the week after that a video essay on the same topic due. Most of the movies were good but I only watched 1 per week so I had something to write about. Super easy grader I got 100s when not even trying at all. Discussions get a bit boring. But prof is super super nice and understanding.

Uninspiring, does not know how to organize a class, discussion questions do not spark discussion at all. I was so excited to take Masculinities, but she did not know how to create an interesting class.
