Had some days when I liked her, some when I didn't. Some days her class was easy and others she would pull from stuff that wasn't anything she had every discussed. She once said she would get us all for plagiarism on a paper. Could hardly take her seriously after she said that.

Ms. Cary is a great teacher. Although the subject of Geography can be a bit boring, she tries to make it interesting. She's very blunt, and will call you out if you're late, texting, or talking. As you go through regions and the issues they're facing, she definitely doesn't sugar coat it, she tells you like it is. Good teacher, not an extremely difficult class. Good to fulfill category E.

Geography 110 with Ms. Cary was both informative and interesting. Geo 110 covers the aspects of regional and cultural geography, and in my opinion, is much more exciting then studying landforms in a physical geography course. Ms. Cary is unlike any teacher I have ever had. She is somewhat loud, sarcastic, and quite blunt. She WILL call you out in class if you are talking, texting, or causing a distraction. The course is not easy, and does require some work, but nothing overwhelming. The class I was in didn't seem to do so well on her tests, which can be quite thorough. Her attendence is not manditory and she will not take off points, but I strongly advise going to class everyday, because she discusses things that are not in your book. If you attend class every day and study a day or two before the test, you will do fine. She is pretty funny and inserts trivial information into her lectures which keeps things interesting. She offers very little extra credit, if any, so doing well on tests and map quizzes is crucial. I learned a lot from this course and would recommend taking Ms. Cary.
