Comment:
This class is really amazing. You have to go to class to pass. Lectures are okay, most are interesting. It helps to be taking this class to actually want to be there, not just taking it for credit. Dan is funny, and he really loves his job. If you're open minded and want to see other people's perspectives on criminal justice system, take it.

Nothing like learning about Criminology from someone who's actually been through the system. I took the Inside Out class and loved it. It's a lot of reading and writing. Your grade consists of 3 page reaction papers assigned every week, a final 8-10 page paper, and a group project. Really cool interacting with the inmates. Recommended.

He's the man. Took this class over winter last year and it was a blast. I highly recommend criminology for any CJ major as it teaches you all the theories that you go over in every other class. He's down to earth and knows his stuff. Winter was just a class, Spring/Fall is in the prison, either way it's solid. Winter was 3 tests, 2 papers.

Highly recommended. Had to write a paper on "Boyz 'n the Hood." Encourages class discussion, which took up majority of class time. Very eccentric.

Dan is the Man. He is by far the best teacher I have ever had. He is a little bit looney in the head, but he gives you the notes and 95% of the test questions come from the notes. He is always willing to go out of his way to help. Gives real life examples in his lecture. I would highly recommend taking a class with him.

Nice guy, but a little bit all over the place. He made the material clear though, and classes were tolerable. Thumbs up.
