Comment:
SOO BORINGG!!! He doesn't teach anything worth remembering, and the tests/essays are all on things you do outside the classroom. (Readings and such) Doesn't answer emails, so if you have a question and can't get him in person, you're screwed. It's an easy A, if you survive it. No attendance taken, though.I passed only showing up half the time. lol

OMG SOOOO BORING! All you do is watch movies, even HE falls asleep. Grades are on the readings/what you do outside of class. Showing up for class is usually pointless especially since he doesn't take attendance. He doesn't answer emails. I sent him 2 very important emails and got no response to either. Easy A but you may die of boredom before then.

One Word BORING!!! :( the class is a drag, i think he even bore himself. Other than that, the class is easy to pass. There were 2 test, both take home, and one book review. and at the end of the semester there is a community study which is easy.

Man is nice and willing to help you out. One test the entire clas no final one test and it was simple. Do the book reports which are only three and you should be ok. There is a huge huge HUGE project about 30 pages if you do it alone. ONE PROBLEM YOU CAN NOT REACH HIM AT ALL!! I MEAN AT ALL. IF YOU DO TALK TO HIM HELPFULL THOUGH

I took the class under the impression that everything would be take home. He changed his course and we had only one take home test. You never know what is on the tests and neither does he.

My friend took this class. He does not know what your grades are. The man falls asleep in class, walks out randomly, talks nonsense, and if you ask him about the book report, he responds, "Uh what book report?" Very confused, but very hilarious. You watch movies that do not relate to the class at all. Looks like reading rainbow guy! Take him!

This class was difficult. Professor Pinn is usually unclear and does not stay on topic. Keeping up with the readings, of which there is plenty, is the only way to really get a decent grade. He is helpful if you go to him, but his quizzes and tests were hard. Overall a lot of out of class work and very little in class teaching.

It would be a waste of time to go on and on about how easy he is. Except for the **** "inner city community survey" everything about this class is not even worth putting real time into. I think he just gives you an A if you say one thing in one class. Take his classes for an easy GPA boost

Be prepared to sleep through class. Doesn't take attendance and pretty much all you do in class is watch movies. About 5 take home critiques, 10 page research paper, but no midterm or final. Just tough it out... not too bad for a gen ed.

Comment:
Lots of books to buy but you never have to read them. Shows alot of movies, and kind of gets lost during his sentences. Sleeps in class, A LOT. Did manage to open my eyes to racism and civil issues. Prof Pinn is a good guy, easy class if you don't mind being a little bored. Take homes great too.

Prof. Pinn is very kind and caring. Not organized at all however. You never really know what work you are supposed to be doing. I DID learn al lot, and am now much more sensative to civil rights issue (opened my eyes). I got an A.
