Comment:

Degrading, smug, and not a person to go to if you have an issue with his class. Usual schoolwork rhetoric as in other classes but was one of the few professors that I has at SVSU that did a disservice to the profession.

Sad to see him go. this man was funny as hell, and entertaining. He had some great jokes, too bad he had to turn into a pumpkin Dec 8th. He'll be living it up in Florida, and having sodas on the 60 ft. yacht come summer....I hope he enjoys his retirement.

It's sad to see such a great guy retire. Everyone in the CJ department is sad to see him leave. He was an inspriration and tried his very hardest to see each and every one of his students succeed. I hope you have fun in Florida Mr. Cisky! You will be greatly missed~!

Where else could students learn from the master? There are so many important and influential speakers, that you feel like you gain a plethora of knowledge. Dr. Cisky is the authority figure in CJ, I mean he did carry a badge for 29 years, was a senator, created crime stoppers, owns large corps., and other investiments.enjoyyour retirementandbsafe

Excellent class. Good experience with many reputable guest speakers. Speech and paper might seem threatening, but not bad. I feel like I learned more from his speakers than I did from most previous classes.

This guy is the ideal college professor. He has a ton of real world experience that he shares with the students, and real world experiences make learning fun. You will learn allot! After 120 credits I realized the most interesting teachers are the ones who had allot of experience besides teaching

He makes class interesting and he is a lot of fun. Take him if you can and pay attention because he makes funny comments when some people sleep in his class--you just have to be awake to get his humor.

This guy is great. He looks like a mix between Bill Murray and Fred Willard and he is just as hilarious. Fun class with easy tests (if you study). Take him whenever possible.
