Average
Prof. Burrel is very judgmental and condescending. She's also the worst professor for clear guidelines and instructions. She is very rude.
Awesome
I took Professor Burrell's Introduction to Drama/African American Literature class. Her focus on racism sets the tone from a leftist tone, letting the right folks know now. She's very relatable, understands student's life balance and is very sensitive when it comes to student identity. There is attendance and random quick pop quizzes. Just participate well and she'll know you care about the class.
