Reviews of professor Cristina Visperas

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Honestly, a gift from god. This class is EVERYTHING but professor Visperas makes it so enjoyable. Truly one of the kindest and most intelligent professors you will ever have. Do yourself a favor and take a class with professor Visperas you will not regret it.

This class was awful. Not sure if it was because of the material or if it was because of the professor, but lectures were boring and a waste of time. Visperas seemed unorganized and would drone on about things that were irrelevant to the lecture. Had I known this class would be like this, I would have avoided it.

Cristina is amazing. The lectures for me personally didn't always make sense but they were interesting. There's three papers that are easy enough, my TA was great, and the in-class discussions were always friendly and entertaining.

LOVE Prof. Visperas - she's the best. She clearly cares a lot about students and is not afraid to practice what she preaches, unlike some other professors who treat social justice as an academic exercise but aren't committed to it in real life. A very kind and brave soul, take this class with her if you can!

The material is good, but the lectures are not interesting.

Visperas has been the highlight of my first semester at USC. She's sweet, funny, very bubbly every class, despite the heavy content (war, racism, etc.). She's also been very understanding and flexible with attendance and readings, which I'm very grateful for! Her lectures are NOT boring at all for those interested in social issues and humanities.
