Nancy Workman
Nancy Workman PhD '96 is an adjunct professor who holds a CULPA silver nugget. She mostly teaches Literature Humanities, and occasionally Contemporary Civilization. In the 2012-2013 academic year, she served as a Center for Student Advising advisor.
A representative line from her CULPA page is: "bar none the best professor I've had at Columbia"[1].
When Workman submitted an Actual Wisdom to Bwog, her post received many effusive comments and exactly zero negative ones. One commenter said, "nancy workman is one of the professors that makes columbia great. she quietly and conscientiously devotes herself to turning wet-behind-the-ears freshmen into college students. she doesn't get the glory that a foner does, but i daresay she does more for this school that desperately needs more instructors like her"[2].
