Reviews of professor Fran Garib

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Garib does not accurately give students directions on how to access assignments on McGraw Hill. This caused MANY students to not know they were behind in assignments. Additionally, there is such an unrealistic amount of assignments, my class had a total of 104 assignments. Which included quizzes, papers, exams, etc. Definitely drop!!!!!!!

Professor Garib is not as bad as the other reviews make her out to be! I'm currently in her class and she is very thorough, concise, and gives us lots of chances to pass her classes including exams outside class and extending due dates on assignments and even the exams themselves! She gives a lot of homework but if you do it, you'll pass!

I took her to class and she made the lectures interesting. She gave you a lot of time to submit your work. Yes, it's all over the place on the blackboard but you are given unlimited time to do your homework and reading assignments. You also have two attempts on quizzes and tests. While we learned in class we took the quizzes and tests at home.

Professor Garib almost never answers her emails it is frustrating and she is very passive aggressive when she does respond. The assignments on blackboard were very hard to find and the overall course was disorganized. Her instructions were unclear from the beginning, if you have the option of choosing another econ teacher, please do.

The assignments are ALL over the place with very unclear due dates and names, the syllabus is clear but everything else isn't. She doesn't clearly communicate either, I have never had this problem with an online course. She has assignments spread over two different sites, which makes completing assignments even harder. DO NO RECOMMEND!

While blackboard and the syllabus can be confusing she is a very understanding professor. I had some technology issues with the websites she was assigning stuff on and she ended up giving me an Incomplete so that we could work together to find alternate assignment options so I could pass the class with a higher grade.
