Student to student: How professors are stepping up
The challenge of adjusting to virtual learning has been difficult at times for students, but it has also had a significant effect on professors.
With fewer in-person lectures, they’ve had to find new ways of teaching and also have had to gain a new sense of understanding for their students.
I asked graduating seniors how they felt about their classes and if they had any professors that have really stepped up for them during the chaos of this school year.
A professor of mine who’s been very accommodating and empathetic this semester is Karyn Riddle, who teaches my Journalism 565: Effects of Mass Communication class.
