Reviews of professor Holly Hanley

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Dr. Hanley teaches grad students and this is her only undergrad class, very useful for asking questions about grad school and professional fields of CSD. She has a lot of experience and good connections. Sometimes assignment due dates are unclear so make sure you stay on top of that. Lightest workload ever

CSD2300 is an easy A. Dr. Hanley is very organized and tells students all of the due dates at the beginning of the semester. You have one super easy assignment per week and no tests.

I think she means well but her expectations are just slightly ridiculous seeing as she is aware of the amount of work that we have for other classes. Tends to be condescending but in a less obvious way. Unannounced classroom assignments are non-negotiable so make sure you are in class everyday. Her tests are very wordy and contextual so read.

Dr. Hanley is clear about her expectations for her class from the beginning. Professional Issues in CSD is definitely an easy A, but it's also informative and helpful for when applying to grad schools.

Dr. Hanley is one of the most unpleasant professors I have ever encountered. When I went to an office hour to discuss my personal statement and career goals, Dr. Hanley was very discouraging, telling me receiving a doctoral degree was not worth it, opening my own private practice was too much work, and working in education was more realistic.
