Reviews of professor Katherine McDonald

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I am unsure who would Give Professor McDonald a 3.0 on difficulty, she isn't difficult at all. She doesn't give a real, "syllabus" so for some that may be difficult but she does that so you can explore what you want to explore which gives you so much freedom to go down avenues you want too! I have had her for WMS 150 & 415 and she is fab! A in both

She is amazing and so is this class. I was nervous going into it being that its a W course but the material is very easy to write about and she is understanding if you miss a paper or are late. She also offers extra credit. I enjoyed this class so much Im taking her WMS 415 in spring

Prof. McDonald is AWESOME and really understanding. This is a writing course but she structures so it's not completely overwhelming - subject matter is definitely interesting so that helps. There are (8) 2-pg reflections, (3) 4 to 6-pg papers, discussion boards and a group presentation. We watched some great documentaries, 1 film and a miniseries.

Love her! Shes very nice and easy to talk to! This class is about race/gender/and other things that may be hard to talk about so be prepared! She is very passionate. Assignments every week since its a W course but you do the work you pass the class. Discussion type of class! Be prepared to speak. Also one group project. You have to buy the books!

The sweetest woman I've ever met. This class was honestly so fun and I learned so much from Kate. She's so personable and really wants everyone to learn from this class, but teaches in such a relaxed manner. Theres weekly short papers and 2 longer papers for midterm and final, a lot of writing and reading but definitely worth it!!!!!

Professor McDonald is a really great instructor who obviously cares about her field. She is very well-read on everything we discussed in class and really encouraged us to learn more about the material presented.
