She makes me laugh, her outfits are cute but her hair is always everywhere! You really dont need to read because she tells you what you need to know. She is very into her job. Her class wasn't hard at all.

awesome teacher. extremely helpful u just have to go to class take all the notes and that basically is the test. everything she writes down will be on the test

I had this professor for this fall semester, which I would like to mention failed me for the class. She is a very rigid individual who will not bend for anybody. Some of her "standards" are very unreasonable. I highly reccomend NOT taking her class.

The adverse comments are unwarranted. There are a lot of papers and she expects you to write like a college student and not a fourth grader; she should. She challenges you. If she didn't, I think required diversity courses would be even worse.

I loved her! Great teacher. She has a very sociable personality and it totally fits the course.

Listen, I received an A in her introductory course. Any of these geniuses that put her down or said she was difficult, simply didn't put in the effort. Her tests were basic if you studied and her papers easy as long as EFFORT was applied. NOT HARD at all, and she is very approachable.

JUST DO THE WORK! got an A and Im far from a book worm. Just pay attention and youll do fine. Do the extra credit and get B's on test and youll get A for course. Adverse comments obvi are from stoners and idiots cause this class was not that hard

Wonderful professor. I had her in the Fall of '08. She squeezes the life into any topic she talks about. I got a B+ in her class and only missed an A due to a late assignment. I would recommend her to anyone interested in sociology. So come step out of the fishbowl and examine what's inside.

I honestly have NO idea what most of the previous posters are talking about. I had Calogero in the spring and she is very knowledgable. She clearly explains all concepts and she is super nice! Just take good notes, attend every class, study the key terms in the textbook and take advantage of the website and any ec and you shouldn't hav any problem.

I think Mrs. Colagero is a great teacher. She's extremely smart and knows her stuff. Her class is not easy, but if you go to class and study, you'll do fine. I really enjoy her lectures.

It's truly frightening how intelligent and knowledgeable she is,but it's a good thing.Yes, her class is hard.But if you aren't prepared to work, then why are you in college?Her expectations are more than fair and she respects her students.Her lectures are interesting and though she is tough,she's fun as well.Always laughter but always work...

Her love for sociology,and all social sciences, transfers to her classroom.She's a great lady,always willing to help.I would recommend her to anyone who is a serious student,if not don't waste HER time.Great class.Glad I took it.

Very helpful teacher. Her classes are fun and entertaining. She expects quite a bit from you, but she's always willing to help. I'd recommend her :].

um i dont know who your talking about but prof calogero does not give tests atleast in my class she doesnt. and no pop quizes either. she actually is very easy the only problem is u have to do alot of papers n attend some activities. im getting an A

Loved this class and learned a ton! Great professor.

Very nice and usually in a pleasant mood. Extremely easy class, no tests, essay due about every two weeks. A few activities must be done but nothing that you can't attend on campus. Also 20 hours of community service must be done in less you want to read an extremely long, boring book and write a longer essay on it. Strongly recommend her!

I loved her class and having her as a professor. She tries to get her students to participate and learn actively in class, my class had some great discussions. The vocab on her tests is a little advanced for a intro course but she was willing to clarify any confussion her students.

You can't expect to just show up and get handed an A. She definitely makes you work for your grade but isn't unfair about it. The amount of papers can be annoying but not difficult. So long as you understand the concept of which you are writing as well as basic grammar and spelling you'll have no problem. Man up, do the work and you're golden.

This woman is literaly the bomb. I absolutely loved her class. She definitly makes you work for your grade, but this its college, buckle down and do the work and you will do great. She makes the class super interesting and does a great job teaching. She is a great person and I fully respect her as a teacher. you go Mrs. Calogero, you go.

i think she was great. the only downfall is that your entire grade is 3 tests. but otherwise she lectures all the material in the book clearly. she makes it intresting

The beginning was a little rough.... There is only 3 tests so if you do bad on one your pretty much done for the rest of the semester. Prof. Calogero was very helpful though and was there if needed. She explained the course material well. Overall wasn't a bad class and would defintitely take her again.

I really like Prof. C! It's obvious that she loves Soci & I think she does a great job teaching the material. She gives awesome Powerpoints & has open class discussions frequently. Prof. C gives students fair warning that her class isn't a "walk in the park" & to reconsider taking her course if u aren't willing to do the work. Tip: Study ur notes!

Great powerpoints...uses real life examples...wants to see each student do well...do NOT miss a class...exam review sheets were only semi helpful for actual exam; exams are difficult...study very hard for exams and youll do fine...overall: one of the best professors ive ever had

Professor Calogero breathes life into all of her lectures. I am always excited to go to her class and learn. Her lectures usually go until the end of the class, but she makes the content fun and interesting. It's important to read the book and study or else her test wills be impossible. I would recommend her to anyone!

Very easy class as long as you pay attention in class tests are an easy A. Very fun lectures, uses lots of current events would recommend to anyone. Almost impossible to fail her class.

Feel like she refuses to give you an A.

Professor Calogero is a great woman!!! Yes, her class is challenging, but it's not impossible if you put the work into it. The trick is to READ and STUDY ahead of time!!!! Do not wait until the last minute to study, and do not skip the reading or you will drown. I read and took notes on every chapter and got As on every test. Just manage your time!

This class was super interesting. Although sometimes her lectures can be boring, for the most part she tries to make them fun. This class is a writing based course. There are no tests besides midterm and final. There are 5 papers through out the semester but she is helpful and makes it easy. Would recommend this class to everyone! She is very nice

I took a class with this professor and absolutely loved her. She shows such passion about the subject and really knows her stuff. She treats you like a college student so you have to actually do the work like you supposed to but that's the way it works. I learned a lot in this class. You go girl

I wasn't sure if I would like a Sociology class but Professor Calogero made the class very interesting. Her passion shows in her lectures & she's very funny. I LOVED the class & think that it was because of Professor Calogero. I looked forward to coming to class. Take notes in class & you will do very well! Would definitely take her again!

I'm not sure why this professor has such a bad rep. If you read the book and study for the exams you will pass this class. She gives concepts for every chapter on canvas. STUDY THOSE. Most of it she goes over in her notes. Also study the vocabulary in the book.

IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE IN THE NURSING PROGRAM - TAKE HER!!! I would not have been prepared for the nursing program in the fact that she says "do not memorize the information, learn it. and then you will apply it to the questions". She fosters critical thinking which is essential to passing the nursing program.10/10 She is amazing.I owe her!TAKE HER

With my experience with this professor, I would say she is a kind woman who has a passion for what she teaches. Tests arent to difficult and i recommend taking good lecture notes and read your textbook. There is also very minimal homework to do.

Great teacher! makes you work for the grade you get but is very helpful if you show involvement in class. explains ideas very well and keeps lectures interesting.

She goes off powerpoint and highlights the important parts of the chapters. Also gives out note guidelines that are SO useful. Very fun professor, very funny, and ran an amazing class. One of my favorites! She rocked.

Lovely professor! You need to read the textbook to pass, there are no real shortcuts. She provided opportunities for extra credit which was very kind. Also very passionate about the subject! It was refreshing.

She was always in a good mood, well prepared for the class and tried to make it as fun as possible. I was honestly not interested in the subject at all but she made it a very fun time for me. I would definitely take her again. Yes, her tests are hard but um it's college, what did you expect? Some people here are just lazy and blame it on the prof.

She was very rigid about missed assignments and there weren't many assignments outside of the exams so there wasn't a lot of wiggle room to save your grade, but she was very passionate about her class which made the lectures interesting. Classes did run very long, literally to the last second they could and there were no computers allowed.

Professor Calogero is a very sweet woman. She is very lecture heavy and it was honestly overwhelming at times to keep up with so much information. Everything is in mapped out for you in the concept sheets. Honestly, if you do the concept sheets, take notes during the lecture, and glance over things outside of class you, will do just fine.

Going into this class, I was terrified I would struggle based on the reviews alone, but I was wrong. Is the class lecture heavy? Yes. Can it be fun? Also yes. Prof. Calogero is a truly kind and caring individual, and I've had a very positive experience in this course. If you take your notes properly and show up, you'll be fine.
