Reviews of professor Meta Gary

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Meta is caring and tries to get to know people's names, strengths, and interests early on. Lots of process work, but that's necessary if you're planning on applying to the GRD program. Answers emails promptly and gives lots of work time during class time to answer questions and offer suggestions. Definitely recommend.

Awesome!! Meta gives amazing feedback on your work and helps you grow throughout the semester. She is also very detailed with the softwares we are using so no one is confused. Overall just great!

Out of the design faculty, she is definitely one of the better ones. She makes sure you understand projects and what is expected. When she gives feedback, she doesn't tell you specific things to change, but rather general suggestions, so that you can learn how to improve.

Meta is a good teacher and willing to help whenever needed. There is a lot of work that you will have to do very quickly so if you don't have that much time on your hands I would not suggest this class. Overall, the assignments were pretty easy just time-consuming.

LOTS of work. If you get stressed by large amounts of work in a short time don't take this professor. Very caring and gave good advice however, the turnaround time for assignments was unnecessary as it turned into getting work turned in and not being able to leam from projects; if you are going to the graphic design program, this will not help you.

I am not sure what happened to her, according to all these reviews she is great, but when it comes to the class she is extremely consistent, unprofessional, and HORRIBLE when explaining assignments. IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER CLASS BE WARNED her workloads are ridiculous!!! Learn Illustrator/ InDesign/ Photoshop beforehand!!!

Lots of work and quick print turnaround times. That being said, she gives lots of time in class to work and answer questions. Meta is pretty strict with rules, but she's also caring and accommodating. She's very responsive, so if you're confused, just email her and you'll usually receive a reply in a few hours if she's not teaching another class.

A great professor, she gave lots of individual feedback and was very nice and approachable. To get the most out of having her, I would suggest going to office hours or speaking with her individually. She's very understanding and tries different teaching methods. She's also very kind about teaching aspects of the software instead of moving too quick

Meta does not use the conventional grading system, and instead works on delivering feedback to her students. I found this process less stressful as well as beneficial to those who want to major in digital art, specifically graphic design or typography.
