Jan 13, 2026 · Historical comment
Do not take this class. Makes tests really difficult (tries to trick you) and is not there to help. Avoid! Take another professor. Also, her lectures are extremely boring and long.

Great overall: explains material at a clear, followable pace (albeit verbosely with sidetracks into videos/news articles). She's cheery in character, available outside of class, and a generous grader with often tough but fairly structured exams. Would definitely recommend.

She is a really nice person, and genuinely passionate about economics. Tests can be hard but if you lock in you'll be fine.
