Shelby Kimmel

Shelby was a wonderful professor to have, not only was she kind and understanding, but also had an extension system that came in handy during the final weeks of the semester. The split between classroom time and drumming time also made the class feel more digestible and chill. There were many writing components, but aside from the final research paper, it was all very doable in the time frame given.

This course at first seems very confusing, but once you start to learn the basics everything else becomes a little easier. The exams are styled so you have to get certain learning targets, it can feel a little all or nothing at times, and then a lot of your grade ends up being determined by how you do on the final project, but it overall is fair and most of the learning targets aren't too hard to get

Shelby not only taught an amazing class, but she cultivated a great class environment as well where getting to know each other was prioritized. She deeply cares about her students and caters the class to our needs, making sure we're feeling supported. There were a few papers, but all scaffolded into smaller parts and with lots of feedback and graded fairly/leniently. Workload is very manageable with extensions given often. In addition, the drumming was super fun and something to look forward to every week!
