Don't take her class if ur expecting it to be chill. First of all, she just takes points off assignments with no explanation at all. Also, she has zero consideration for students in her class. Multiple times throughout the semester she cancels class 10 minutes before it starts. Students already walked all the way to class. She doesn't care though. She cancels for some absurd reasons too like "its too hot"? If she is that physically unfit to walk in hot weather, that's concerning. At least send the cancellation email an hour before class. But no, i think she actually wants us to suffer and walk there first because why else would she consistently send out the email 10 minutes before class? Like damn, we're already sitting there. Not to mention she consistently shows up late to class. Multiple times she shows up 5-10 minutes late. Just goes to show how little consideration she has for her students. She is an incredibly nitpicky grader. Takes points off for the smallest details. She needs to understand that many people take this class for gen ed credit. Not everyone wants to go pages in depth about feminism and gender studies. I took this class prepared to put in the effort and work, but she expects too much and takes bunch of points off. Just like another review says, she takes points off because she doesn't "like the answer". Overall, this is one of the worst professors i ever had. please don't take the class if you need your gen ed requirement. take something else because this will just give you a headache. I promise you the good reviews are from those who are passionate about gender studies (which is fine). But if you are an average student who is just looking to fulfill your gen ed, don't take it. At least not with this inconsiderate professor |

I love Dr. Lewis! Her course materials are carefully curated, assignments are reasonable, and the class discussions she moderates are always on point. I would definitely take a class taught by her in the future. |

Unfair grading. She took off 50% on questions that were worth 50 points because the answer didn't fully answer her questions even though there is no right or wrong answer. |

Took WMST400 (Theories of Feminism) in Spring 2019. Dr. Lewis does a great job with this class! It is heavily discussion based - there are readings before every class, and then either students or Dr. Lewis will give a presentation and lead a discussion on the material. We wrote summaries for about a third of the readings along with a final paper analyzing feminist theory behind a current tweet/meme. Strongly recommend this class for anyone looking to learn more about feminism and women's issues across a broad range of topics. |
