Reviews of professor Vanessa Diaz

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Take Diaz's class. The class itself is interesting and will make you understand the inequalities of the world. Diaz is an inspiring woman herself and shares her personal stories. Participation matters a lot, don't be afraid to speak up, she loves when her students contribute and make connections. I can't emphasize enough how amazing this class is.

Professor Diaz is an exception professor. There are readings for each class meeting, but they are useful and usually contain concepts students wouldn't have encountered elsewhere. There's a weekly reading assignment that takes about half an hour. She loves teaching ethnic studies and is always enthusiastic. Taking this class was a great experience.

One of my favorite professors at LMU. She is very passionate about what she teaches, as well as making sure her students succeed. I learned a lot, even if there was a lot of reading. So, get ready to read, however, the midterm and final are both "take home" exams and there are a lot of extra credit opportunities. Easy A if you show up and do work.

Prof Diaz is an amazing professor because she has a genuine passion for the subject as well as care for her students and their success. I took this class bc I had to and it ended up being one of my fav classes and one of the ones I learned most from. She used a ton of media, speakers, and engaging content which make the info stick! TAKE HER!!! LOVE

One of the most passionate and inspirational professors I have had at LMU. She is very engaging and taught us all about Chicanx and Latinx history. I would recommend this class for every student because you learn so much that grade school doesnt teach, and it is a great class to fulfill the American Diversity core at LMU.
