Take Brad Davis. If you get anything lower than a B in his class, immediately drop out of college, because you wont make it. Not because his class is that easy, but because he is crystal clear on what he expects. Don't let his young age fool you, he is wise beyond his years.

Brad is very helpful, and one way or another, by the end of class you will end up knowing what social stratification and social conflict, and all that stuff is! He is not just a dinosaur that lectures off ppts, instead he brings new ideas to class.

One of the best teachers I've ever had during the 3 years I've been in school. We use a textbook but very rarely and do more class discussion. The study guides broaden our thinking to where we're thinking outside the box and no longer in the textbook. A+ teacher, highly recommended. I believe he understands us students b/c he too is a student

Mr. Davis runs things his own way. Really enjoyed his class, the man knows his stuff. Interesting to have discussions with. However: he thinks the method of teaching you're used to is awful, so he'll try to confuse you and then re-teach you his way. ASK QUESTIONS. He has a biting sense of humor, so this class is not for the weak-hearted.

He's hilarious, but he goes on tangents a lot. And much of the class is lead by the students. There will be a presentation, a debate and a quiz for almost every unit. Ask good questions or he will spring the unit quiz on you before you've even looked at the study guide, that or he'll just ridicule you in front of the whole class.
