Valerie Bartlett

Dr. Bartlett always spends a few minutes in class to check up on our mental health status and how we were feeling and encourages us to reach out if we ever needed someone to talk to. I went through some things in my personal life which causes me to struggle academically. I emailed and went to her office hours to re-check my understanding of the lectures I missed, and she was really empathetic towards me and patiently walked me through the course concepts.

She always double-checks with us during stressful academic seasons to see if more time on assignments is needed. During tough periods in the pandemic, she would check in with us and let us know she was aware of the stress we were experiencing and asked if more time on our take-home final essay will be helpful.
