Comment:

I had the pleasure of taking professor Majete's class in the spring of 2003. He is an eccentric professor who regularly cursed in class, the only one ever to do so in my experience. He is also very funny and appears to genuinely care about his students. One either loved him or hated him. And I loved him! Sad he is retired.

take his class...easy A...all you have to do write a 15 page paper...and it doesnt even have to be good to get a A...also study for midterm and final the questions are from the textbook...his attendance is easy...just write your name on a piece of paper and then you can leave....or you can stay and listen to his stories about his life...your choice

Comment:

This guy is soooo weird!!! He actually scared me a bit. He goes from literally sleeping in class to preaching like a baptist minister!!! He also talks a lot about sex at inappropriate times, just to make people uncomfortable. Do not take him no matter what, even if you need him to graduate. Wait another year!!!

Comment:

whoever is taking him just know not to ever go against his word or you'll get stuck arguing with him until you give up. Back in the day he might have been a good teacher but right now I think he is already worn out and just doesn't really care. No guidelines for a 15 page term paper. And he even said.... if you wanna impress me write 20 or more.

Comment:

THIS CLASS IS A WASTE OF TIME. IF THERE WAS ANOTHER TEACHER THAT TAUGHT IT I RECOMMEND TAKING THAT OTHER PROFESSOR. YOU DO NOT LEARN ABOUT THE TOPIC OF THE COURSE. WE MOSTLY LEARNED ABOUT DAUGHTER, EX- WIFE,& HER HUSBAND THROUGHOUT THE SEMESTER. THE EXAMS ARE BASED ON THE BOOK, WHICH HE DOES NOT GO OVER. DO NOT TAKE HIM!!!

Comment:

He gives a midterm, a final and a 15 page paper. He curves the test. In this class you learn more about life lessons then about Sociology. The only way to do well in the class is by reading the textbook. He talks about his family alot. You could fall asleep in his class. The class is a very laid back class.

Comment:

Two 15 page papers in one semester. Doesnt discuss material much. Read the Textbook(only way you will learn the material), write his papers, and pass midterm/final and you'll get an A. The papers are very time consuming (total = 30 pages for 1 semester). Overall good discussions.

Comment:

Oh I agree he is funny. But he's also completely out of it. I know his entrie family's histry cuz its all he talks about. You learn nothing. I have no idea wy he teaches, its a waste of time, and it's not an easy A if that's what your thinking.

Comment:

I don't know what these haters are tawkin' about. This dude is mad funny. I wan totally uninterested in soc. but he got me involved. He's cool and funny although can be a bit hitler-ish with his classroom rules. Easy exams right out of the book, you just gotta read. Long term paper at the end but pretty simple and you get to pick your topic. take'm

Oh wow, i don't know what people are talking about, but this class was SH*T EASY.. just go to class, sign in and leave.. but you should study before the 2 tests that he gives, very easygoing, and just participate in class.. if you expect to learn something, then don't tkae his class.. easy grade [term paper is 15 pages, but really really easy]

Comment:

The worst teacher you will ever get. He teaches absolutely nothing, his class is a waist of time. He teaches nothing a takes the test right out the book. Nothing he talks about is on his test because all he does is repeat himself an talk about his family or lack there of.

Terrible teacher! Occasionally talks about the book otherwise about his personal life or is trying to pick up the girls from the class! Does he still have that Yankees cap?

Comment:

I wonder how he got his job at Baruch. Did he bribe the recruiter???? He absolutely didn't teach at all. He gave midterm and final from the book, which he didn't teach at all. Talked about his own personal life irrelevant to the course.
