Reviews of professor Gina Bombola

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I took a musical theater colloquia with her. Really interesting class - loved the material. All musical lovers will enjoy. Do average amount of readings before class, watch a musical every 2ish weeks. Participate in class, do discussion posts every week. One group project and one individual presentation. Should be an easy A if you do the work.

Lecture and material is great, but the projects don't pertain to HistoryIII/are graded harshly. Participation is graded - you MUST speak, even if it means distracting from the lecture, not a good system for real learning (I'm here for prof lecture, not off-topic student talk) COVID-19 edit: good lecture notes, tedious assignments +projects. IS HARD

Dr. Bombola has been serving as an interim professor for the past year, but has recently been hired on full time. She is a very friendly, kind person and pretty pleasant to be around. However, the two classes that I have taken with her (History II and World Music) have been a little disorganized. Not bad, but just be aware of some disorganization.

She is so personable and friendly; class is always fun! She's very knowledgeable and fair. Grades are not just test and quiz based, it's also based on 2 essays and 2 projects. Sometimes, the projects are tedious but they're totally doable. Watkins, is the other prof for MH 1 whom is apparently a hardass, so definitely take Gina if you can!

Makes the class as if you are a music major. Seems like it should be easy but tests are rather hard if you don't memorize every song completely given in class & there are A LOT. Participation grade is given every day and you have to talk more than once to get a good grade for the day.

 For her discussion posts she expected us to write very detailed and long responses without giving us anytime to write it. Not only would she do it right before class ended, she would never give full points even if you wrote a detailed response. She even gives you half points ondiscussion posts that are for checking in with the students mentalstate
