| Jodi Friedman JOUR202 Expecting an A admin 12/22/2025 | One of the kindest professors I've had at UMD. She genuinely wants all her students to succeed, and her class will teach you a lot about editing, grammar, and AP Style. All the assignments are relevant to the course, and she gives great feedback. Instructions for assignments can be confusing at times, but she's good at explaining them in more detail. Would definitely take a class with her again if I could. |

| Jodi Friedman JOUR202 Expecting a B+ admin 05/02/2023 | Favorite professor in the journalism school. Easy grader, always super understanding and just wants to help her students. Only issue is instructions can be confusing sometimes but she will always answer questions. Lots of grades but always gives class time to complete. |
