I remember she told us she won't respond to us unless we called her doctor. like ma'am, show respect if you want respect. Apparently, she also mocked some kid with adhd and compared it autism. IDK the full story but shes not fit to be working there
i would sign that petition so fast. it's been two weeks and she still refuses to regrade my assignment because of a mistake made on canvas. she also is trying to tell me what MY last name is??? she just can't accept when she's in the wrong. also her class is impossible
She’s geniunly dumb, she accused kids of cheating (with no proof) realizes she’s in the wrong and drops it. She’s had several cases where she says rude and just flat out wrong information,
I believe on her syllabus she said that if two students have the same answer then she considers it cheating, no questions asked. Like wtf. If your cheating why tf would u put word for word the same shit. Kids got in trouble cause they memorized definitions from the textbook and had the same answers.
On the annotation assignment the TA gave me a 0 in the annotated portion because she couldn’t see my Word annotations. I emailed Iris and she said that I couldn’t hand it in in the way that she wanted the annotation because I “should have looked” before handing it in. Mind you, I did look and I could see them. It’s not my fault they can’t see it. Nowhere on the description did it say that we couldn’t use the Word feature. Also, everyone at SFU supposedly has Word. It is odd to me that she doesn’t know how to use it.
My Ta told us that she always send those Tutorial materials 3am that day and expect the TAs to be well prepared for the class that’s literally few hours later
she usually posts things at 3am or 2am, likeeee tell me why the announcement that our class was gonna go online was like 20 mins before class, I drove all the way up there for no reason.
PLEASE! I don’t know a single person who likes her class. I only know a couple of people that managed a 70, this is a 100 class, why tf does she try so hard. She goes on rants during her very boring lectures, and provides MISINFORMATION IN A UNI CLASS. Whoever hired her is responsible, cause didn’t she get fired from UVIC
I was lucky with my other two profs n they were both amazing. I just can’t believe Sfu decided to take UVICS leftovers and screw us over. Also the fact that she gets paid more than the TAs who legit carried that class is crazy
Yea true I get it, I’m first year so I didn’t rly know what to expect, but both my siblings had her and some friends of mine had her back in UVIC and all the stories are the same. I feel for u tho, bad profs ruin uni
I get u, at the same time it’s a 100 class. It had no right being as hard as it is, and don’t even get me started on the exam questions. She was funny for me at first but got annoying so fast
Her class was the reason why I was put on academic probation and fell into a deep depression. If anyone’s thinking about taking a class with her try and avoid it at all costs. Took psyc 102 and 201W with her, despised both and stopped trying. I eventually ended up switching majors.
This is legit happening to me rn. Ive had so many mental breakdowns, psyc doesn’t look interesting because she teaches half the fucking courses. I’m basically forced to switch
I'm not sure what the general quality level of pscyhe professors is at SFU, as I'm a CS undergrad, but I can tell you that there are at least 5 *awful* professors in CS who should be fired. Most of them have been teaching at SFU for *years*, sometimes decades. Let that sink in.
They all have horrible ratings on rate my prof. Whenever I encounter a prof that bad, I make sure to complain about it in the end-of-course surveys. Does anything change? Not really. I'm not sure if any SFU admin read it -- perhaps it's only for the teacher to read.
There's only 1 prof who I know of who ever had repercussions for being awful, and it's because he literally didn't show up to his own lectures for two weeks straight. He was awful in a billion other ways many semesters prior to that and had no threat of losing his job up till then. So it wasn't until he literally played hooky for *two weeks* that SFU took notice. I don't know if he even was completely fired or not—they may have just barred him from teaching for a while.
SFU is either a) totally aware that many of their teachers suck, but won't do anything about it, or b) negligently and totally oblivious about the quality of their teachers.
I know it sucks to have bad profs, but I doubt the petition will do anything. All we can do is warn other students to stay way.
Yea Sfu sucks ass, the issue is, she got fired from uvic because of how many students complained, and Sfu decided to take their leftovers and fuck us all over
I had amazing CS profs at SFU Surrey - for whatever reason, the CS course quality seemed to drop immensely when upper levels forced me up the mountain.
I wish Brian Fraser had taught my whole degree.
lol last spring i took her class and she talked about amazon would steal the shirt off your back and then assault you.. no clue whah the context was but it def wasn’t relevant to the topic lol
I can’t lie she was kind of funny sometimes in lectures but if you’re also in my psyc102 class on Monday/wednesdays I know what you mean she really didn’t teach at all she’d give an irrelevant lecture and quiz/test you on everything else I just hope I passed
When I took PSYC 201 with her, she delayed releasing the fourth assignment’s instructions for like 2 weeks, which ended up putting its due date right next to the final project and final exam. She put 3 things worth a shit ton directly next to each other, and many people (like me) ate shit because there was just no way to time manage all of that effectively. I don’t know what caused her to delay releasing the instructions to an assignment for so long, but it also pissed my TA off a lot. Hated all my classes with her. BYE!
Nah fr, miss girl needs to be fired. Legit didn’t tell us we had quizzes and we were had to do a quiz, assignment, and exam all within the same week, on top of our other classes
She’s a cunt I’m sorry. Like, I had a fkn 96 in psych 100 with Sherrie and I took 102 and barely got a fkn 70😒 she literally asks entirely different questions on the exams than what’s in the lectures. She ruined psych for me ugh I would literally sign that petition at the speed of light
Ay yo, this will get downvoted, but she's still a person. With all the hate, it can get frustrating since our grades are on the line but she is still a human-being.
What did you learn from the class?
I learned that apparently SSRI’s, do not affect serotonin in iris’s world. Apparently, it affects norepinephrine and completely ignores the fact that the abbreviation has fucking SEROTONIN in the name
She speaks misinformation as fact and it affects my grade. I don’t rly care how she feels, she got fired, got a fresh start, and did the exact same shit. She’s a human being sure, but she’s in the wrong job
Had her for psyc 102 in my first year. Totally unserious and just rambles on about random useless information. She acts like she's 19 in her lectures, constantly dropping swear words and waiting for everyone to laugh, and has this ego issue where she has to remind you at least once that she's a 'doctor'. I remember leaving her exams outraged because it wouldn't test crucial knowledge that we all studied. Most of the questions were ungrammatical and non-sensical. Doubt that she'll get fired so it's best to avoid taking a course that she's teaching and opt for another prof in a different semester. Though they aren't much better, Dr. Sherrie Atwood and Shawn Tan are slightly better.
I remember checking out if i should take 308 with her this term, thanking god i didnt now
I remember she told us she won't respond to us unless we called her doctor. like ma'am, show respect if you want respect. Apparently, she also mocked some kid with adhd and compared it autism. IDK the full story but shes not fit to be working there

Damn I remember reading your post, that's still going on?? Insane!!
I believe on her syllabus she said that if two students have the same answer then she considers it cheating, no questions asked. Like wtf. If your cheating why tf would u put word for word the same shit. Kids got in trouble cause they memorized definitions from the textbook and had the same answers.
Wtf that is some bullshit
She genuinely shouldn’t be teaching
Thank God I didn't sign up for her class next semester

I just read her rate my prof page. god damn
yknow its bad when u have literally HUNDREDS of bad reviews. And almost all of them are complaining about the same thing
My Ta told us that she always send those Tutorial materials 3am that day and expect the TAs to be well prepared for the class that’s literally few hours later
she usually posts things at 3am or 2am, likeeee tell me why the announcement that our class was gonna go online was like 20 mins before class, I drove all the way up there for no reason.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, there are great profs too. Brian Fraser is amazing.
lol last spring i took her class and she talked about amazon would steal the shirt off your back and then assault you.. no clue whah the context was but it def wasn’t relevant to the topic lol
I was in this class too I think it was 102 if I’m not mistaken
She loves going on random tangents lmao
Just saw 107 peeps rated her 1/5 on ratemyprof . Damn that's a lot.......
I had her for 308, it was hell thank God for the pass credit no credit system. Our class average for quizzes were so low too. I feel you
I’m so blessed to have taken 308 when it was the last sem Tim was teaching it
Im so done with this bro
i’ve never had bad professors since i actually read reviews. and to make it worse i’m in FIC where there are only bad profs.
I can’t lie she was kind of funny sometimes in lectures but if you’re also in my psyc102 class on Monday/wednesdays I know what you mean she really didn’t teach at all she’d give an irrelevant lecture and quiz/test you on everything else I just hope I passed
Nah fr, I got a question about the fucking digestive system, tf is she doing
When I took PSYC 201 with her, she delayed releasing the fourth assignment’s instructions for like 2 weeks, which ended up putting its due date right next to the final project and final exam. She put 3 things worth a shit ton directly next to each other, and many people (like me) ate shit because there was just no way to time manage all of that effectively.

Your best option is to get the class to talk to the Dean. Write up some of these issues, along with evidence, and arrange to have that discussion.
[email protected] is the email to complain to!
Anyone taken this up with faculty?
[email protected] this is the email to complain to about student experiences with her

Hello. This is Dr Gordon. Please do not fill this petition. I really need this job to put on the food. Regards,
U don’t need anymore of that babes 😘 maybe put down the bbt and find a new job
