He talks a lot in the class, but doesn't catch the key point! The review is not clear. He doesn't like ESL student.

Brilliant man. You will not want to miss a class not only because you'll lose valuable test material but his insight are inspiring. He's not really a tough grader because his philosophy believes grades means nothing, so just do the right thing and an A will come.

Prof. Diggs is the best!He is truly passionate about teaching and he enlightens his students about all the issues in education; past, present and the future. His class is a joy to be in. Three test, a book report and 10 pg fieldwork paper. All of this is easy. He constantly stresses the importance of reading. Take him!

Comment:

What can I say? I like him as a person, but he doesn't talk too much about what's in the book. He would talk for the whole session about McDonald's. So when the test comes you really need to read the chapters, cause that is where the questions come from. He talks mostly about you being a good teacher, less about whats in the book, so study the book

I had Diggs for SEYS 761 (Law & SS). Attendance is not mandatory. He assigns 3 3-page papers & 3 9-page papers. Easy grader. Just about everyone gets an A or B.

Great attitude, lots of fun, very knowledgable, but apt to spend too much time reciting TO the class and not enough discussing WITH the class.

this class was a complete waste of time. Basically you get the same lecture every day for 2 semesters - and its a three hour lecture. unprepared and completely worthless. Easy but dum dum dum dum.
