What everyone has said here about her being the worst professor ever is not only true... it might be the most true thing ever said. Her lectures are the best cure for insomnia I've found yet, the material is interesting enough but when delivered in her monotonous drone, it sounds like Charlie Brown's teacher. The papers were graded much too harshly and did not encourage original thought. Hope and pray you have a decent TA because it's your only hope. I read all the reviews of her before taking this class but I said to myself "It can't be THAT bad!" and took it anyway. I wish now I had listened to the reviews and stayed away. I don't care if this is the only class you can get into or the only class you need to graduate or the only class that fits into your schedule... FIND AN ALTERNATIVE. Beg, borrow or steal, sleep with the dean... ANYTHING! If you don't heed the warnings, and still take a class with Prof. Hieronymi I sincerely hope you have a guardian angel and a really large supply of Red Bulls to stay awake.

This class was extremely boring and difficult. Her lectures were ineffective and the reading was hard to grasp. I had to attend her office hours to help clarify the information she gave us in class. Although I am sure she is a brilliant person, she cannot teach. Hopefully in time she will get better.
