Absolutely the best professor I've ever had. She almost had me switching to a Journalism majour just to keep having her! Tests were extremely easy as long as you pay attention and actually go to class. I never studied and was 2 points from a solid 100% in the class. I'm sad to hear she's leaving.

Great class! Pretty easy. Go to class, take some notes, and DO the study guides! Pretty much everything is straight off the study guides, you will be guaranteed an A on the tests. Only complaint I would have it that she can talk a little fast sometimes, and I couldn't take notes fast enough.

Barbra Mack is an absolutely wonderful professor. She knows everything about everything and I enjoyed going to every class. She offers in class extra credit so while attendance is not mandatory it's good to go. Take this class ASAP as she is retiring after Fall 2012!!

I ABSOLUTELY ADORED THIS CLASS AND THIS WOMAN. She is by far the best professor I've ever had- she's knowledgeable, passionate, hysterical, committed and brilliant. You learn so much in her class because she makes you laugh when she teaches. This class is a MUST take and do not skip, you will miss important info as well as a wonderful 50 minutes.

Great teacher! Gives lots of extra credit. Easy class as long as you attend. Can be harsh to people..so dont be a person she picks on. She hates those who read the paper or are on their phone. She will get you

Best teacher I've had at ISU. You don't realize how much you're learning while you're laughing. Attendance isn't required, but I went to every class.

I don't think I can say enough wonderful things about this woman. Best class I've ever had. Hands down. Gives extra credit, so easy to pay attention to. Just don't use your cell phone!

So is SO stuck on herself. She does a good job using examples and showing videos but she cares more about promoting herself than actually being a teacher. The class is pretty interesting though.

Barbara is a great personality, but this class just dragged on. Lectures easily got off track and class didn't follow syllabus. She's a tough grader on assignments, so make sure your writing is at its best and carefully edited.

Amazing instructor. Funny. Knows what she is talking about. Interesting. If you know how to write well and are intelligent, you will do very well in this class with very little effort.
