Reviews of professor Audra Goodnight

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Grading is entirely subjective. Grades are not shown until the very end of the semester and are based on very few things. Any attempt to ask questions about the grades or criteria on the essays was met with silence. No response or feedback. Since you don't know what you scored on the prior papers, there's no way of knowing what she wants.

LOVE DR. G! She's by far the best ethics professor. 3 (2 of them are 500 words) papers that are straightforward and interesting to write about. Her lectures are engaging and fun to learn about the different ethical dilemmas. Very caring and kind. Highly recommend. Make sure you participate!!!

Listen to the more recent comments and do not take her. She is unhelpful and such a difficult grader. It honestly seems like she is just taking points off for no reason because she never gives comments on anything. I crammed for the final for almost a week and wrote her essays for literally and week straight and she still gave me a terrible grade.

Dr. Goodnight is a very caring person but an AWFUL prof. Attendance makes up for 5% of your grade but she's so bad about accepting legit excused absences. Participation is 10%. I participated at LEAST once per class and still got a 7/10 for participation. She's ruthless when it comes to grading papers and there are a TON of readings. NOT AN EASY A

This was the most infuriating class I have taken in college, and I'm an engineer. She's an incredibly hard grader (this comes from someone expecting A's on writing assignments as that is what I have received for every other writing based class in college). She gave an insane amount of work in the last week of class that counted for half the grade.

For a core requirement that I forced to take this class was one of the hardest classes I have taken. Do not believe the other comments because she completely changed her class setup. Having a final worth 50% is absolutely ridiculous and I don't understand how that is acceptable because even if you work hard all year it doesn't matter.

I enjoyed Dr. Goodnight's class last semester, so much that I am currently taking her Ethics of Disability course currently. I do have to say her final exam was worth 50% of our grade, but everything she asked on the exam was reasonable and explained in class. Little to no work throughout the semester but pay attention in class and engage.

Attendance makes up 5% of your total grade, with 10% of your grade being for participation. The tests include info that you will not know like "what does this Latin phrase mean?" despite having no importance to the class. Papers are graded arbitrarily and to get feedback on anything you must ask for it. Nice person but the class was a mess.
