Reviews of professor Jennifer Murray

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Murray has a passion for her classes that shines through, if you dont really care about history maybe pass on this class, but she is engaging, informtive and entertaining if you share that passion.

This prof was great. She cares about her students and actually wants everyone to do well. This class had four 15% tests and an exam, which were all super easy to do well on if you show up to class and take good notes I definitely recommend taking this course if you are interested in psyc. She also had easy clicker questions for extra credit.

Difficult content which prof does not explain well. If his course isn't mandatory for your major I recommend you do not take it. Her explanations are confusing, and you have no idea what to go off of for studying (no guidance given).

Dr. Murray is definitely one of my favorite professors I've ever had. She really cares about her students and makes her courses very enjoyable.

I took the class the first year that Dr. Murray introduced the lit summary assignments. She took into account student feedback from the year before with only 2 midterms and a final. With 2 midterms and a final, plus 3 lit summaries there was more opportunity to boost grades. The papers were marked fair and I learned how to properly read articles.

Fickle grader. A chunk of points are saved for participation which is manipulated. Professor allows students to take over lectures and express racist sentiments.

I took Dr. Murray as an honors course professor, but I loved her. She was very nice and you could tell she cared about the students. She was always available for questions and responded to emails very quickly. Her lectures were interesting and she made sure to teach things that we would enjoy and made it enjoyable even when the information wasn't.

I have a 90 avg&work hard for my grades. I feel like she's learning the content w/ us, sometimes she says something& asks us not to make her repeat it bc she reads off her notes& doesn't know it herself. She finishes her 1hr20min class after 40mins (multiple times), yet assigns us huge textbook readings bc she doesn't have "time" to teach it to us.

I would not recommend this professor at all or taking this course with her if you are a psych or neuroscience major/minor. The lectures are very boring and hard to follow. She makes it extremely difficult to follow along and does not know what she is talking about. She does not answer students questions during lectures.

Constantly left everything to the last second and admitted in every lecture that she didn't know what she was talking about. Could never answer questions as she didnt know. Barely put info on slides then would read off notes too quickly for us to write stuff down. Would assign 2-3 hours of readings per lecture and relied on videos to teach us. Bad.
