Savage was absolutely aweful! I attended every class and didn't learn a thing. She was extremely boring and seemed to not know how to teach the material. Her classes consisted of her reading her powerpoint and us taking notes. Key terms and points were not explained. She also had no compassion for the students in the class. If we wanted to do well in her class we had to go to Suplimental Instruction (S.I.) because she didn't teach a thing. Her tests are way to detailed and have nothing to do with her lectures.

Dr. Savage is by far the worst professor I've had at UWW. She says that you need to come to class because things she covers in lecture aren't necessarily in the book. So when you go to class you try and copy down the notes and tell her to slow down because she speeds through them so fast. She is impatient and doesn't slow down enough for the students to copy the notes. She is basically just one of those professors who shows up just to get a pay check. It's obvious she doesn't care about her students. When the class average on all 3 exams are D or lower you know it's because the professor isn't doing her job. If you care about your education I advise you to not take her.
