Holly Allen

Formation of Mod American Culture provided an excellent overview of the cultural developments of 1830-1919. I found it fascinating. What I really appreciated about Prof. Allen is that she tried to minimize our stress levels. There were a couple projects and a paper, all of which were graded fairly. Prof. Allen really cares about her students, is an excellent lecturer, and has a good sense of humor. Would recommend highly!

I've really enjoyed Prof Allen's teaching this semester. There's a decent amount of reading, but she summarizes most of it in class. There are 2 papers, only 750-1,000 words each, a final paper, and one group project. Overall, a very chill and interesting course. My main note is that Prof Allen often seems unsure of herself when teaching. That is, she feels bad for "boring" us and often feels as though she's not teaching the material very well, which is never the case. She's incredibly accommodating and sweet, and will happily engage with you after class or in office hours about anything related to American Studies.

Very easy class. As along as you do the work you will get a good grade. Holly is really easy going I would take the class again if I could. You don't really need to do much work to get an A. Lots of group projects.
