Comment:

the BEST teacher I've ever had. He stimulates the minds of his student, and makes classical sociological theory the most interesting subject, ever! Too bad he left Rutgers

Comment:

i heard he is easy in the summer - but in the spring he was rude, snappy, never looked at the class - gave a studyguide that was OFF from the test. i emailed him about concerns i had about my grade and he said: "this is my last email responding to you." It was only his second response! he sucks!

Comment:

This class was not easy at all.I had a really hard time.I needed to get help from other people, & I'm a straight A student.He's confusing at times and is not thorough when asked questions.However,from what I heard,he's the best prof. to teach Social Research,as compared to the other choices.I ended up doing well because I'm a girl, he likes girls.

Comment:

He's the easiest teacher ever!! He may not care about class, but its an EASY A! Never had class, and always had to go to his office hours, although it was ok if you missed some. All you had to do was hand in ur h/w. H/W was just a ditto of questions; answers were about a paragraph long. THATS IT!

We never had to learn the formulas! He ended classes always early! Very helpful when you visit his office! He was great compared to others. If you are serious about this class, it was not bad at all. If you are lazy, do not take this course.
