She’s comes off as nice at first and understanding but really isn’t. Don’t be fooled, if you’re taking this class because you have to then I understand but if don’t have to just avoid her class in general. Doesn’t care about your genuine life struggles. Her classes were mandatory and had in class assignments to complete for attendance proof. Not a hard class but professor is just genuinely not a kind or understanding person |

Dr. Cushnie changed her name (after marriage I'm assuming) but I'm sticking this review under her current name instead of the old one. I looked at the feedback on the other page and I do think that sometimes the topic went a bit too left for my preference but not enough that I wouldn't say do not take this class. An old review also mentioned that they didn't like that Dr. Cushnie would ask a student who volunteered something really vague and broad to "say more." I honestly respected that a lot as I think too many people are comfortable saying something without any backing. I perceived Dr. Cushnie asking that as her wanting the student to think more critically and deeply about what they were saying. This kind of speaks to a broader issue about people getting offended that their ignorant or uninformed opinion gets some pushback. I believe in stating opinions that have something to stand on. Attendance is mandatory as there is an in class assignment that will destroy your grade if you miss a lot. She does excuse them if you have a note. I ended up having some health issues at the end that required a hospitalization and other visits and Dr. Cushnie was very sweet and accommodating to my situation. I did have notes to excuse my absence but I really appreciated her humanity and extensions to a few big assignments. She even asked me how I was doing when I was able to make it to the last day of class after missing a week and a half. I'll never forget her compassion. |
