Reviews of professor Jessica Pidgeon

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Had professor Pidgeon for intro to American politics. I will say she is very engaging in class and she teaches the material very well. Although It's an intro level course the grading policy is level 400. My political theory professor didn't grade as hard as she did. Class mutually didn't understand what she was looking for to be able to get an A.

I WOULD NOT EVER TAKE HER CLASS. SHE'S THE WORST TEACHER I HAVE EVER HAD AND SHE WRECKED MY ACADEMIC CAREER. I HAD TO CHANGE SCHOOL BECAUSE OF HER. DONT TAKE HER, THIS IS THE SIGN!!!!!!!!!!

Grades way too hard for a 100 level class. Is not that specific when it comes to explaining the content. Also only wants to hear what she believes in when it comes to papers and will give you a poor grade if you do not agree with her view. I would not recommend taking her class unless you must take it.

I don't understand many of the negative reviews. This class is not an easy A, do not expect that from a 101 (or any PoliSci 100 levels at the school). Prof. Pidgeon is best for people that actively participate and are engaged. If you show up and snooze in class, you won't do well. The workload is not intense, just get to know her expectations

Prof. Pidgeon is great. She isn't the type of teacher to just lecture. She makes class so fun and entertaining the time flies by! She is also super funny. Few short papers, no midterm or final just 3 mini exams that she well prepares you for! Offers so much extra credit and is always available to help. Learned so much, would definitely take again!

I hated every single second that I was in that class. If hell was a place, this would be it. Would not recommend. She is very educated and knows what she is talking about and does a good job at keeping students engaged during lecture and shows good videos, but has an extremely harsh grading policy and gives very bad feedback, and vague notes.
