Jamie Trevitt EPIB315 Anonymous 05/07/2024	I had her for both EPIB301 and EPIB315 and if you can take her class over the winter/summer break, do it. It's so much easier and organized because you don't have to deal with the professor at all. The TAs handle everything. You will try to email her and an automated message will reply. For EPIB315, she refused to post the lecture slides BEFORE the lecture, and for good portion of this semester didn't even post the weekly module until the following week. Her exams are so disorganized, she reads off the slides, the TAs basically reteach you everything in discussion but you stil have to go to everything because there are random quizzes that she gives for attendance the very last few minutes of class.

She listens to feedback when an assignment is made too difficult, and if we got hung up on a coding issue, or if there's a question that's way out of our depth, she'll outright give it to us. She's also humble and apologizes if we complain that something is too hard. I've spoken to her many times, and she's incredibly sweet and down-to-earth when she's not lecturing. Her lecture style can be described as decent. I feel like handwritten examples, or at least more animated examples would be more helpful in a class like this, though. Also, TAs are incredibly hit-or-miss. She gives a good overview but if your TA isn't all there, it can mean the difference between an A and a B. That being said, this isn't an easy class, it's not a fun class, statistics is extremely unforgiving and I find it harder than calculus.

She doesn't do the bare minimum when it comes to teaching. She reads straight from her slides, which come straight from the book. She does no practice problems, barely any examples, and just reads out the technicals. So, expect this class to be 100% self-taught. Unfortunately, you will have to show up to lectures, as there will be lecture quizzes.
Jamie Trevitt EPIB315 Expecting an A Anonymous 08/12/2023	It was really clear throughout the semester just how disorganized Dr. Trevitt is, both with students and behind the scenes. My TA was great (shoutout to Caitlyn!), but even she couldn't help much, since Dr. Trevitt wasn't communicating with the TA's well. Her exams were written last minute, we'd jump around in lectures and were a day behind almost the whole semester, things were set up in canvas incorrectly, homeworks were written or graded wrong and took a while to be fixed, exam grades took forever to come back (despite being online and mostly auto-graded), she didn't start posting lecture slides before class until a bunch of students asked for them, once they were posted they often had mistakes/typos in formulas that had to be corrected, etc. This class jumps from middle school level stats to college level stats very quickly, and the overall disorganization and lack of factually correct online resources/slides makes it really hard to be ready for that jump in difficulty.

If you do happen to ask a question she also is very rude and comes of condescending. I have nothing good to say about her. Biostat should have been an interesting course and she totally ruined it for me and makes me not want to go into statistics anymore. She is not clear about what is on exams, makes things more complicated than they need to be, and her "study guides"/"practice exams" are riddled with errors that make it even more confusing and hard to know what is correct and what is a typo. Stay far away from her and her class. Terrible in every way. She is not even a professor.

Jamie Trevitt SPHL602 Expecting a B Anonymous 12/23/2022	Trevitt was pretty disorganized. She would make her PowerPoints right before class so her math was often off and then she’d have to revise her PowerPoints multiple times. HOWEVER, she was extremely generous with partial credit. So much so that most of the people I talked to in class actually did much better in her portion of the class than in Epi. Overall, she seems like a very nice person and seems to care about what students think and if they’re understanding her; it’s just the lack of organization that’s extremely frustrating. But I was much happier with her half of the class because at least she was nice and had zen energy.
Jamie Trevitt EPIB301 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/05/2022	I took Prof Trevitt over the summer and she was wonderful! The lecture content was not too bad and exams were based on content for the lecture! There were not a lot of assignments and it was easy to follow through. Highly recommend Trevitt!
Jamie Trevitt EPIB301 Anonymous 08/03/2022	I am currently taking her EPIB 315 class, and it has been the most frustrating class ever because of her being disorganized and late to upload the lectures or assignments. Also, the syllabus was wrong. The assignments are not based on the lecture. If you have another professor option, take them. I wish someone would have told me that before taking her class.
