Reviews of professor Kathryn Anderson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Anderson was great for race and ethnic relations. Attendance isn't mandatory, but it helps with understanding the material- especially if you don't read the textbook. She posts her powerpoints online and posts the reading material online. The textbook isn't necessary. Show up and pay attention and you'll be fine.

Kate actually celebrates diversity and promotes inclusion, where most profs just write that on the syllabus and end up catering to the mostly white Wisconsin students. We read readings from all kinds of different authors and had really good debates. I think all the students learned a lot.

Professor Kate Anderson did a great job engaging the students and promoting active learning. She is very intelligent, which can make it intimidating to participate in class, however, her friendly demeanor creates a comfortable learning environment. One of the most interesting, and applicable courses for anyone interested in environmental injustices

I took this class because I needed to be full time. It was a Forest & Wildlife Ecology Sociology class. The discussions in class were fine, but the readings/homework were excessive for the level class it is and to make matters worse, there wasn't even a rubric that we were being graded from. The grades were completely arbitrary.

Kate is great! You will love this class. The material is so important and Kate's lectures are clear, with good slides and videos. She's the best professor I've had at UW.

Dr. Anderson was almost intimidating in how much she knows, but she's so caring and she made it so that everyone in class participated a lot.
