Reviews of professor Doris Mulhearn

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I love this professor. She's genuinely such a ray of sunshine and you can tell she wants you to succeed. There's a lot of homework but none of it takes too long, and the quizzes are a bit rough. Just follow the rubric for essays and you'll be fine. Also the textbook is free and easy to find online.

This course had nothing to do with my major, and because of that, I felt the depth to which she graded was entirely unnecessary and harmful to my education. Her discussion rubrics aren't super clear, and if you aren't careful, the work can be alarmingly time-consuming. However, if you have to take her, it won't be the end of the world.

This class can seem extremely scary in the beginning but if you take it serious, read the assignments and really think about your response, you will gain one of the best understandings of American U.S History. This professor is no joke, but I have learned so much from her online class than I ever did in a classroom. Would take again 100x over.

Do not take her class under any cost. Out of all my classes even the major classes, this is the only class that gives me so much stress. i work so hard on each assignment to end up getting half the credit. i emailed her and she literally copied the same thing as the feedback. Overall, horrible professor

I learned so much in this class! Dr. Mulhearn engages in conversation in the discussion boards frequently and you really get to the "why?" aspects of history. The grading criteria are harsh (lots of textbook citations required if you want an A), but clear from the get-go. It's so easy to work for an A as long as you read the textbook!

Tough grader with unclear criteria. Too subjective and seems to partially base grades off of personal ideals/political views as opposed to quality of work.
