Reviews of professor Caitlin Hanlon

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Amazing professor. The content wasn't difficult, and she always provided excellent examples to reinforce the information. She always promoted intellectually stimulating discussions and never made you feel stupid/dumb for asking questions. If I could take her again for a different class, I would; just didn't like the project aspect of the class.

DO NOT TAKE! she doesn't care about her students. in order to get 100 on notes you have to write a ton of pages. her review sessions include going over one diagram and it not even being relevant to the test.

I would take this class again if I could. We conducted our own research and presented it on a poster. Such a fun class and Hanlon is so chill, she kept lab fun the entire semester and really took our feedback into consideration. I loooove Hanlon!!

Overly rude, doesn't help when you ask a question she will just ask you the question and think you know it, exams are super hard with a lot of material, reads off the slides, impossible to actual get help from her, a review class before the exam is the worst she goes over one question the whole period of time and its not on the exam do not take her

As long as you do your work and pay attention, you'll be fine. Just dont be rude and pay attention and you'll literally be fine. Is it a lot? Yes, you definitely need good time management when it comes to this class but if you do everything on time then you'll be golden. She's very relatable and funny, and gets along well with her students.

Hanson is a very sweet woman who does care about her students. However, for bio106 I would not recommend her as a professor.Notes are taken from the textbook the day before the first class of the week and aren't explained well or taught well in class. Review is solely based on questions students ask and don't help at all. It is a new course though.

Was super scared taking this class but she eased all fears I had about the content. Along side lecture, we also did a semester long project. While the topic was interesting, I did not enjoy it as much as others which sometimes made the class a drag. Exams were pretty simple; just memorise the lecture slides and a little application at the end.

As a non-science major, Dr. Hanlon made the content being taught in this class easily understandable which was great. She also answers her emails very quickly so if you have a question, she is easy to reach.
