Do you use ratemyprofessor.com?

A lot of people at SDSU do.

While at MTSU, we used mtsureview.net. (Or it could be .com, I can't remember right now.) It was priceless.

Yep. Lots of Otterbein profs on there. Our student newspaper did a huge story about it last year. Professors go on there a lot.

It's really popular at my school. A lot of students use it to make their schedules so that they know who the good teachers are.

I think it's a great site.

At Pitt, we have teacher evaluations every semester. However, the students never get to see the results of these surveys, which I think is ridiculously unfair!

I visited the site the other day at work when I was bored, and was pleasantly surprised by how much it's grown since I last visited about a year ago. Read through some of the comments on professors I have had, and they are dead on.

The same exact thing happens at my school. I think those surveys are kinda pointless because teachers don't get the results until like halfway through the next semester so it's a bit late if they want to change something.

I'm trying to remember what the explanation at Pitt was when the student gov't tried to make the results available, believe the unions had issue with it and that's why they're not released. Think that's BS and that students should have an opportunity to see what quality of teacher they are taking before they register for a class.

i use to play on there in class when i had graphics and desktop publishing lol. i should go play now and see what the people down in rio now are saying.

I have all my professors rated on there......mind you profs from 10 yrs ago. I rated accordingly to how much stress they contributed to my life

[kappaloo]

the reason teacher evaluations aren't released is because there are major libel issues.... or so sayeth my school

ratemyprof is huge at UW. many profs will point their students to it - good or bad. :S

[Taualumna]

I've used it.

[Lady Pi Phi]

I used it yesterday to rate one of my law professors. I'm convinced she's the devil incarnate. She calls herself strict...I call her pure evil.

[GeekyPenguin]

We use dogears.net.

I checked it out a bit when I was in school, but never seriously used it. Most of the time I got all the info I needed from people in my majors and those I had class with previously.
