Reviews of professor Kate Destler

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Some may give Destler a harsh grade however if you work hard in her class and pay attention you will find her lectures very interesting. She is very knowledgeable and was my favorite professor at Western. Make sure to always do the readings as you will discuss them in class and write heavily about them on the exams. Exams are hard, just study

Not my favorite professor by any stretch of the imagination. Her lectures are incredibly difficult to follow and her powerpoints are near useless. The readings we had were fairly interesting, but being tested on them made no sense and her midterm/final was a waste of time when we didnt really learn anything.

Going into this class thinking I would be able to understand politics better but ended up leaving thinking this is so far the worst professor Ive ever had. She grades atrociously late and is the harshest grader Ive experienced. Her comments are just plane critical with no constructive feedback. Lots of useless reading in my opinion.

This class was so easy that it felt like a review of senior civics. Very disappointing for a political science major entering a 200 level class. Didn't need to read or go to class, except that part of your grade will be on attendance. Dry, boring class. Unfortunately I had to take it. Avoid this professor if you can, but not the worst. She's nice!
