Late, unorganized, and didn’t learn anything in the class. Avoid if not in the minor.

Worst course I have taken at UMD post Zoom era. Cooper-Jean is consistently late, unprepared, and provides little to no guidelines on assignments. I honestly feel like she had 0 prepared material for this course other than the readings that are not even relevant or addressed in the course. This class was simply a mess from the first day to the last. Avoid this class if you can, there are plenty of classes that are easy A's that won't have you questioning why you are enrolled in this univeristy.

Best professor at UMD. She is extremely engaging and class is always interactive. One of my favorite classes I have taken at the school of public policy. I've learned so much from her. There are four papers and weekly reading quizzes (super easy). Her grading isn't very lenient but it is fair.

She's a very good lecturer, keeps class very interactive and encourages everyone to share their thoughts. There are four papers in total, but nothing too hard as long as you get started early. Would definitely recommend her, she's really nice and this is a good intro class for the public policy school

Honestly one of the kindest professors at UMD. She goes out of her way to help if you fall behind or are struggling, provides good feedback on papers, and makes the class insightful. Participation is a grade, but she offers to help if you aren't good with speaking up. She's really sweet and positive and a great person as well as professor!

The class was easy, but Professor Johnson Cooper made the class unbearable. She shows favoritism very early on in the semester, and only talks to those few students. Participation is a large portion of the grade, but she makes it impossible for the majority of students to even earn a B considering she does not give people the chance to speak. She heavily emphasizes equality and respect, which is ironic given how she treats her students. She also came unprepared to most classes and I feel like I barely learned anything. I would not recommend her at all.

no complaints. Waldron gave no tests, quizzes, or exams. if you ever need an extension there should be not hesitation in asking. biggest assignments were a 5-page paper and a 7min presentation. very passionate about nonprofits and willing to help you out professionally.

Professor Counts is one of those professors that you never forget, even 10 years into the future. The class is discussion based, so it's nice to just have a conversation about the week's topic. The only assignments are 5 papers, but they're not too hard to complete, and he lets you resubmit them for a higher grade.
