Reviews of professor Alix Olson

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Olson definitely wants her students to succeed. That being said, I struggled to connect with the material in WGS 205. While she was helpful during office hours, I hated writing the papers. It was worth the attempt to broaden my horizons. Definitely look out for 'musings' (pop quizzes), and expect daily email blasts. And take COPIOUS notes.

Dr. Olson is so welcoming and understanding, and has so much experience outside of the classroom that she brings in to make what we're learning about come to life. I had her at Oxford before I moved onto the Atlanta campus and I felt like she (and a few other favorite Ox professors) were the reason I was so prepared for my upper level classes.

The best professor in the world!!! So informed, so caring, so smart. Her class is reading heavy and you'll have to do weekly reflections but Dr. Olson literally changed my life. Definitely take a class with her.

Dr. Olson is absolutely phenomenal. I have learned more in her class than in all of my other classes combined. Although this is a 200 level course, you can definitely take this course as a first-year and get an A.
