Quarter: Spring 2021
Grade: A

Dewitt relishes in making her course harder than they need to be. I am a fourth year philosophy major and have never experienced someone as obnoxious in their delight of making their students struggle.

She had issues in her personal life, which I was completely sympathetic of. However, it resulted in a horribly unorganized quarter. Although we were expected to be understanding of her circumstances she was in no way considerate of student time or lives. She made up deadlines and was unwavering in her idiotic scheduling of things. You would think that since she was effectively screwing us with posting lectures late, or not at all at time, that she would reflect that with flexibilities with deadlines but instead we had to assume the consequences of her failures. This class should not have been difficult but she lost control very early on and made it exponentially worse.

In addition, she within her lectures I often found myself cringing at her lack of compassion or awareness on many social issues. I am not sensitive or overly politically correct but she was on the verge of spewing overtly racist nonsense daily.

Overall would say to just avoid her if possible, not a caring teacher nor an efficient lecturer.
