Comment:
Anne is def someone you would want to be your aunt or grandma. She assigns readings from books everyday, but I only touched each one once or twice, so I got away with no reading. Go to lecture bc she doesn't share her powerpoints and everything on them will help for the exam. This class is a pretty easy A, but pay attention bc u will learn a lot!!

Attendance is definelty mandatory as Anne doesnt post her PowerPoints. The reading she assigns should not be overlooked and are always on the test. She is available whenever you need and really cares about her students. Her tests can be challenging if you dont study at all, but if you put in a decent amount of work, youll pass.

When she teaches, you can tell that Professor Figert knows what she's talking about. Her class is largely dependent on the lectures, but most everything is common sense. Two tests, 6 easy papers, and a chance for extra credit. She is SUPER nice, and really cares about what is going on in your life. Definitely would take again!

I love Anne! She is hilarious and cares so much about sociology! During her lectures I could tell that she was very passionate about what she studies. Her lectures and assignments are pretty clear and concise. As long as you pay attention in class you'll do well

Dr. Figert's class made me want to switch my major to Sociology! She is so sweet and very passionate about what she teaches. As the department head she is a good person to know and get on her good side! 2 exams and 5 out of class assignments. Very clear on what she expects, some extra credit as well. She wants you to succeed!

Only a few actual assignments that were easy reflections. The two tests are not bad if you actually look over the study guide. Don't expect to waltz into the test knowing nothing and expect an A. All around great teacher that loves her powerpoints and what she teaches. Definitely go to office hours and get to know her. Would definitely recommend

She is one of the best professors at Loyola. She is very funny and tries to keep her class as active as possible. Her class is also impossible not to pass. Would definitely recommend her.

Dr. Figert makes her lectures and class discussions very interesting and engaging by speaking on many societal issues around the world. The books we read in this class are actually fun to read! I think pretty much everyone in my class received an A, but you definitely have to work for it.

I loved Dr. Figert! If you copy down the powerpoints word for word, pay attention, and do all of the readings (Warning: there are many!) you will get an A! Def. recommend

I took social 101 with my wellness community. Dr. Figert is very into sociology, which makes learning the information easier and interesting. I would recommend her in a heart beat and as long as you read and study for the quizzes (tests) than you will get at least a B.

Enthusiastic teacher. Just take copy notes from powerpoint and you'll be good. Try to keep up with readings. They aren't too bad because their interesting articles and not from a textbook. You read 2 nonfiction books but they are easy reads and interesting.

Easy A. Copy down the powerpoints exactly and study from them. It's basically wrote memorization. Lovely lady, great class, very interesting, but not very challenging. I only got an A- because I fell asleep for a few classes and missed the notes.

She was overall pretty good. make sure you do the assigned readings and go to class. If you do both of those you will be fine. Tests aren't too hard.

Wonderful professor! Classes are always exciting and she is more than willing to help in any possible way. Cares more about developing students' skills than seeing how many F's she can give. Senior capstone seemed intimidating at first but she made it very doable and enjoyable.

She wasn't too bad. You had to make sure you read, otherwise you won't do well on the tests. She also gives some easy assignments for some points.

You have to read the articles and go to class (she doesn't make going to class mandatory, but she doesn't put Powerpoints on Blackboard). Overall she is funny and cares about her students. She gives you a study guide before each exam that explicitly states what's on it. No cumulative exams/final! An A is very possible if you put in a little effort.

Great experience! Her lectures are clear and she welcomes class participation. The books she uses are collections of readings rather than traditional textbooks, so doing the required reading is interesting. She is interested in what students have to stay and her door is always open if students have questions
