Comment:

He's really a great guy. He would occassionally dish out extra credit if you actually showed up to class (which I would recommend because some of the exam questions were from his slideshow presentations). I showed up for the jokes and laughed my way out with an A+. Read the book and apply the key terms. I would recommend it to the skippers.

He's a really nice guy. He tries hard to make the class funny and interesting. The material is easy and he's really into his field, I think he's the department head too. Overall nice guy and a great teacher. I would definately recomend him!

Comment:

This class is an instant A. I went to class about four times, studied the chapter summaries and practice exams before the tests, and got a 99% in the class, having learned nothing. Not a bad choice for an elective, but don't take the class if you want to actually learn anything!

He really is a nice guy, but a lot of times you dont know what the hell he's talking about. He's not up on the times enough to be a sociology teacher but doesnt take attendence so it all evens out.

Comment:

he has for the most part lost his mind. He is very easy and does not require attendance. he is very boring and tends to completely fall off of topic. one can easily fail if one does not study a little for the exams.

Comment:

It's a pretty swank deal for the university to actually pay this guy for teaching this and give you credit for passing it. This thing can be aced without reading the book or showing up. Chapter summaries an hour before the exam can score you an easy A. Lectures are very humorous.

Comment:

Going to this class is a complete waste of time. The professor goes off on extreme tangents and doesn't notice until the class erupts in laughter. However the class is super easy and I went to about two classes total and got an A. Just do the practice quizzes on his website. Also there is no final.

All you have to do is take the practice quizzes online to ace the class basically. No need to show up for lecture or labs.

He is a really nice guy who tries to keep students interested. Sociology is a boring subject but he makes it as interesting as possible. If you go to class and get his lecture notes, you will do fine on the tests!!

Comment:

The lab is boring, the online lectures are long AND boring, the text is INCREDIBLY boring and LONG (very tedious to read; I believe Williams wrote it himself) and is also written in a way that is abstract and confusing. Only good part is the lecture.
