Future Students

To all of the future students of this class, YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE IT!! I can honestly say that this is by far the best class I’ve taken at Baylor so far. It opened my eyes to a whole to new world of issues that I thought I already had a good grasp on such as: race, class, gender, sexuality, and power and privilege. I never was afraid to express my opinion to the class so don’t be afraid to speak up! The majority of my classes I never say anything in and am normally the quiet one, but something about this class made me want to talk and hear other people talk. Dr. Tolbert creates an environment that is safe and non-judgmental and listens to everyone’s ideas on every subject we are covering which makes you feel extremely comfortable. The texts that we are required to read and the discussions we partake in during class time are extremely powerful and will stay with me and be applied to my life as an educator as well as in my personal life.

  1. Jessica,

    Thank you for sharing your time and talents with me this semester. I truly enjoyed the opportunity to collaborate with you in your academic and professional development. I look forward to staying in touch with you in the semesters to come. We’ve definitely got to make plans to “run into each other” as we wander the halls. Drop by Draper 217 anytime.

    Peace.

    Dr. T
