I actually enjoyed Professor McGinnis. He's very passionate and is always willing to help his students. He even helped me out in other courses when I had questions. Great Professor, do your assignments and ask questions, and pay attention. You actually have to work hard for a good grade, but he's honestly the best!!

Terrible teacher. Talked too much about his life. Never really got the concept of sociology. He would never help any student who asked too

I'm not sure if he is still teaching, but I recall some major meltdowns from students, and he didn't handle them very well. It seemed like he was shooting to make students meltdown, and then teach from that.

Troy is an interesting professor with a real passion for the material. He is always available if you have questions and really cares about the students' progress in the class. He is very generous, as he uses his own life events to help relate the material to the class. His classes are not easy, but I highly recommend this professor.

this is definately not the class to take if you're looking for an easy upper division elective or if you're not a soc major, but he is entertaining to listen to.

this class was a waste of my time. just because it was his last semester, he did a half ass job on my class and everyone suffered. on the final no one passed, i wonder whos fault that is. normally, he would be a great teacher because he is fun to listen to. his lack of commitment, hurt everyone!
