I loved Infant psych with Dr. Markson. She can be a little scatter-brained, arriving late to class or forgetting to post assignments. However, she is super kind and very impressive in her research. She is funny but also expects to be taken seriously, and often made passive aggressive jokes about students not paying attention in lecture.

The best advice I could give anyone coming into WashU or looking for a class rec is to take a class with Professor Markson! She is so knowledgable makes m love coming to class every time. You can really tell that she wants all her students to succeed. There may be a lot of papers but it is all manageable, especially for a Writing Intensive.

Professor Markson is hands-down my favorite professor at WashU! She cares SO much about her students and is always understanding if you need to miss class or need an extension. This is a writing intensive class so there are a few papers but she grades so fairly and makes it really manageable. Could NOT recommend this class more!! She is so amazing!

Honestly one of the best people I have met. Yes, a little disorganized, but only because of how much she has going on outside the class. Incredibly intelligent, cares so much about her students. Definitely a writing heavy class but it's a writing intensive. She gives so much feedback on papers to improve your writing and grades super fairly.

Nice person with a very hands on approach to students dissecting published material, but completely unorganized. No syllabus until after add/drop deadline, lack of clear expectations for papers, constantly behind in lecture. Lots of work piled on unexpectedly without clear grading guide. No clear explanation as to what responses/papers should be.

Not the funniest or the most inspirational professor but very clear cut and well organized. Liked her class because her slides and lectures are very well organized and she's friendly in person. Go to class, take good notes, read the textbook and you'll be fine.
