QUOTES FROM UNI STUDENTS:
My TA was great. She made herself readily available
to help all students and was an extremely good
teacher. She used a variety of ways to help students
understand the material.
She went out of her way for the class, the professor,
and the students individually. . . There was a reason
that the professor had a high record on his exams, it
was because of the impact she had within the class.
