Lisa Carney SPAN370 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 12/09/2020	Professor Carney is one of the best professors I've had a Maryland. She is very passionate and enthusiastic about Spanish and does a lot to make sure her students understand the material.
Sarah Dowman SPAN370 Anonymous 12/08/2020	Pretty unimpressed with Dowman, unfortunately. She is generally pretty nice and friendly but is a harsh grader, doesn't grade things fairly, and appears to have favorite students. She generally grades stuff hard - takes off lots of points for grammar issues, minor points, that type of thing. Homework is definitely overgraded - it's already long (13+ multipart questions) and she grades them pretty closely. Also doesn't grade stuff fairly sometimes. Takes off points randomly (she "justifies" it but they're not really legitimate) and won't accept requests for regrades. Contesting any grade is generally not worth your time at all. Likely has favorite students (mostly those that keep their cameras on). Unclear about directions sometimes - a lot of people messed up on a certain project and she gave everyone 60s instead of letting them redo it or accepting it, since so many people messed up.
