Most Helpful Review
Summer 2024 - I earned an A in this summer course, but it came at an immense personal cost that wasn't worth it. The workload was excessive and severely impacted my summer break with unnecessary stress. The most concerning incident occurred when Professor Dayton wrongly accused me of collaborating with other students on an assignment. She forced me to redo the work for a reduced grade, despite the fact that the similarities she found were simply due to using standard analysis methods for a straightforward topic. This is particularly frustrating since this isn't even my major. Professor Dayton, a PhD student, demonstrates a concerning lack of consideration for student wellbeing. The amount of pressure she puts on students is unreasonable for any course, let alone a summer class. While I managed to get an A, the mental toll and time investment required were completely disproportionate to what should be expected. Pros: None worth mentioning Cons: Unreasonable workload False accusations of academic dishonesty Excessive stress Poor instructor support Disproportionate time commitment for a summer course Would strongly advise finding a different professor or course if possible.
