Valerie Goodwin
Assistant Professor
“Out of all the professors I have had so far, Professor Goodwin is my favorite. She
is laidback, and the work is all just questions from the textbook, which I prefer to quizes and things of that nature when it comes to accounting. Highly recommend her!” (Student
on RateMyProfessors.com)
Suzanne Benno
Lecturer
"Very clear about what she expects. Was very helpful, and I would take anything she teaches." (Student on RateMyProfessors.com)
