Caileigh Glenn
Professor Glenn clearly knows her subject and is a strong lecturer in terms of content. That said, the lectures can sometimes feel a bit disengaging, as they are very heavy on technical details and dates, which can make it hard to stay focused. At times it feels like a lot of information is being delivered all at once. The discussion sections were much more engaging. We often broke into small groups to work through questions, which I found really effective. The course had two midterm papers, a final research paper, and an exam. One downside was the timing of grading. We received our midterm paper grades right before the final exam, which made it harder to use that feedback moving forward.

Glenn is very passionate about teaching and is very accommodating to students. Her lectures were sometimes a little bit of an information dump, maybe because this is her first time teaching here, however she also often has group activities and discussions that were very engaging and interesting. The course has lots of flexibility as the vast majority of your grade was to work on a grand strategy for a country and time of your choosing. That flexibility was very nice, but does mean time management is important. Overall, she was an excellent professor that I would highly recommend for anything IR related.

You can tell that Professor Glenn loves the material and teaching, but her lectures fell flat sometimes. Her discussion sections are much more engaging, but she is still slow to return work. Have no idea what my course grade is and we're about to have the final.
