Comments

Saxonhouse makes a career out of doing stuff unrelated to
her job when she should be doing what the university
pays her to do. This is not an uncommon practice
in the University of Michigan bureaucracy. Arlene Saxonhouse, nevertheless, does
it so flagrantly that working on anything except her personal
things is no longer an option for her. Arlene Saxonhouse
arrives to class hurried, unfocused, and unprepared to deliver a
good lecture. When class ends, she leaves the classroom quickly
and darts back to her office. She has no time
for students outside class. She devotes her time to her
sexual harassment awareness groups, women’s empowerment issues, and other forms
of activism. Arlene Saxonhouse is so hands off that her
teaching assistants do not perform their job adequately. Her teaching
assistants don’t grade fairly and receive little input from her
about how tests should be graded. Arlene Saxonhouse can’t be
bothered with student concerns and has a dismissive response style
when speaking to them. She makes it known that students
grades may suffer for speaking to her. She is mostly
absent during her office hours and meets with students only
if they insist on seeing her. If she does meet
with students, she is so hostile that she practically snarls. | | | Student Competency: Unusually High

Saxonhouse is a well respected expert in the field of
political science, an enthusiastic lecturer and an open and supportive
professor. She's always welcoming at office hours and super knowledgeable
about what she teaches. Anyone who disagrees has probably done
poorly in the class (regardless of what they say on
here) which can only be due to their lack of
effort, she isn't an impossible grader and content is clear. | | | Student Competency: Unusually High
