Reviews of professor Lauren Mackillop

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Lauren is a great professor. She is funny and easygoing and really knows her stuff. There isn't a ton of homework except for the textbook readings, but it isn't dense and it is honestly interesting and all very relevant. The 2 smaller book readings aren't necessary at all. She's not a tough grader, but you need to go to class and do your work.

Lauren is just delightful. Cares SO MUCH about her content, and is warm, funny, and so willing to help anyone with anything. Appreciates good communication and planning, but is always flexible and kind. Favorite class.

Lauren is a great professor! She cares (and knows!) a lot about what she is teaching, which is really important. She cares a lot about her students as individuals as well, and is often happy to help with many things, even if they are not directly related to the class.

If class starts at 8:30am she starts taking attendance LITERALLY at 8:28. So if you show up ON TIME then youre marked as late. It's unfair when class goes a few minutes over the ending time. (Been early every day except for once so i kept note of that) Tough grading, but overall shes a nice lady and good teacher! Not bad class just dont be late!

This was my second class with Lauren and it was taught extremely well, she is responsive and seeks out feedback whenever possible. She includes everyone in discussions and especially this course is applicable and helpful to any student in any major.

Lauren is AMAZING, she really cares for her students and wants them to be successful. Gives many opportunities to better your grade. The textbooks are used a lot in class discussions/nightly reading but can get by without. If you participate and show her you're putting in some effort you will do well in her class. Bonus:she brought her dog to class
