Reviews of professor Marlyn Oatts

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She is a caring and respected professor. However, her lectures are long and boring. You will need to be attentive throughout the mundaneness. She is so sweet and really wants you to participate in class discussions. A lot of hw and assignments and will require your downtime.

Too many homeworks assigned (more than of any of my classes)

(context; 2nd degree stdnt with a BA/MA in PoliSci) What Oatts lacks in education she makes up for in a mediocre grasp of the English language. Her instructions are laughably vague, yet she deigns to grade based on an absurd level of specificity. IMHO she has no business teaching anyone. Be ready to contest all your grades. Easy A - but annoying

She is a really nice and kind professor. Although there are a lot of hws, you will survive and get a good grade after doing these hw. Take her class and you will be fine!

Ignore the negative comments. A lot of people are unprepared for college and the amount of work that comes with it. Professor Oatts isn't perfect, but is fine for this class. She's nice enough, and seems enthusiastic about the topic. College/Life is mostly about your effort - put in some real work and you will get an A. That pretty much goes always

It's hard to like her. I've sent her a few emails regarding the clarity (or lack thereof) of assignments and she didn't answer my questions. There's a good amount of outside work and barely anything to do in class. I never pay attention and do mediocre work at best when turning things in online (I don't think she even reads them) and I have a 98%
