The Nearly Native or Trail BlazerCraving the most authentic experience possible, perhaps you lived with a host family or really got in good with the locals. You may have felt confined by your program requirements and group excursions. Instead, you'd have preferred to plan your own trips, even skipping class to conduct your own 'field work.' |

| Instructor: | Demoliou |
| Instruction Language: | English |
| Comments: | Too challenging, unreasonable expectations, professor got several equations wrong and corrected them in class, but never changed the powerpoints. The professor would make fun of students for questions they asked or answers given on exams. Would NEVER recommend this professor to anyone. She was rude, did not know how to explain anything and did not encourage questions or curiosity. TERRIBLE PROFESSOR |
