Mr. Davis is a good teacher. His notes on the board are a bit scattered, but if you can take your own notes and read the book, you will get a good grade. He is down to earth.

Great teacher. I never took notes. I did skim the chapters before tests. He has a great personality and if you pay attention in class you will get an "A". All these other people who gave him a poor revue, are most likly dumb asses.

Craig is a fun professor. He's excited about the material he covers and passes that on to students. He's great about getting everyone involved in class discussions. He seems truly interested in student's ideas and opinions. His tests are hard but fair - hey - you take the class to learn, right?

I enjoyed taking Craig's class. He is easy going and down to the point. There is a lot of opportunity to learn in the type of environment created in Craig's class room. I would take classes taught by Craig again, and I would recommend them to others.

Craig is an reservoir of infromation. He interjects some great sarcastic humor and pop culture references into his lectures, which makes an already interesting class even better. He has a tendancy to get off topic, but even his tangents have some relevance. Hell keep your email full of EC options.

Davis is cool. His laid back attitude is refreshing and fun to have in class. His lectures are based on powerpoint and testimony. Pay attention though because everything is on the test.

Very very laid back teacher. Let's you turn in things late =). Test are fairly easy if you study a little bit. I winged 3 out of 4 on my test with not much studying for a B on each one. Very little easy HW. Gives you E.C for going to events for 50 min. His laid back style of teaching is a great plus

nice guy,,but exams were sometimes vague and the flex project was asking too much. What he lacked in material he made up for in enthusiasm. Specialist in Ghana and Jamaican studies take this class!**

Very nice teacher and i highly reconmend him to anyone.

Nice guy.. He's pretty easy... At the beginning I thought I wouldn't get his flex done.. But it wasn't that bad.. It was pretty interesting.. I would recommend him if you want to take this Geog 310...

when i first took this class i thought it would be hard. turn out i was wrong. just pay attention to his lecture and read from the book then you'll do fine in his class. overall, craig is a great teacher.

Great teacher wonderful sense of humor! Very ethusiastic, his class is fun and interesting.

I didn't even know I signed up for this class. Walked in. The teacher looked cool so I stuck around. Over all I had a great time and learned a lot. Craig Rocks! What the heck does libelous mean? I guess I'll look it up.

craig is an awesome dude. he is so into his class that it makes it fun. and if you get a chance, take his field classes. its basically a weekend camping class with a small paper. craigers is the man!

Craig is an awesome teacher. You will learn a lot and he always keeps it interesting

Craig is my favorite prof so far. He is very straight foward with tests and quizes. The thing that makes his class great is how interested he is in it. Very knoledgable and doesnt take ne stuff from slackers. Ez tests, no quizes, great guy.

Supperior professor. He inspires you to want to learn. He is very down to earth and easy to relate to. He prepares you very well for his tests and they are right on the mark. No quizzes. He's very fair and very knowledgeable about his subjects. Highly recommend!!

Awesome teacher. Interesting and funny, and very into having discussion. The tests ARE pretty challenging, though he prepares you well. Use the study guide, do well on the tests,show up to class, and speak up once and awhile, you'll do fine. If you like geography, you can't go wrong with Craig.

Cool dude. Pretty easy class so long as you study. You better buy the book because he knows his stuff and is an abstract teacher. I would definately take his class again. He is one of the rare "fun" and laid back teachers. His tests are not easy but if your study habits are there you should do pretty well.

Craig is the kind of person you want to hang out with outside of class. He's personable and VERY knowledgable.

Stop right here and register for Craigs class if you haven't yet. Every class is a virtual globetrot that has you looking at the world through a different lens. You'll be surprised at how cool geography can be. Teachers as good as Craig are rare. And if you plan on ever traveling, this class will benefit you.

Best teacher ever

heisinterested in what he teaches up the butt.if u sleep he sends u home.clss only offers apprx 500 points, so evrythng counts.highly recommend if u want to actually learn something. regardless of weather, he will wear random colored shirts,(purp, orange) with aqua blue shades, a random vest, and some random colored socks with sandals.cool guy tho!

i l-o-v-e craig! class is fun and he is a totally chill guy =) i enjoyed going to class everyday...

Mr. Davis's field study trips are fascinating, I highly recomend them. He's a great teacher and really gets you thinking.

even if you don't get a good grade this class is well worth taking. He is very good at stimulating discussion and insight, your horizons will be expanded, very interesting approach illistrates concepts very well.

Craig will have you laughing all through class. Yes, his teaching methods are a bit abstract, but class discussions are interesting and he prepares you well for tests with study guides. If you want to learn more about the world around you, take this class!

Mr Davis is one of the best teachers in Sac City. He is personable and makes you feel welcome in his class. His teaching method is totally the style that makes a novice feel comfortable with the subject. He is by far the best professor in the Geog department. No contest. You'll be a fool not to take his classes if they are available to you.DAVIS=#1

My first thought on the first day of class was "sweet! A young professor! This is gonna be easy!" Turns out it was not "easy", although Craig does make getting a good grade very obtainable. Craig challenges students on a daily basis to think critically. The class was never "easy" per se, but the work was enjoyable, so it didn't really matter!

Intresting class, and a good teacher, but grades very hard, and you must read the book!

He's really funny, but doesn't try to force the class to really engage. If you want to learn a lot or further your understanding you have to seek Craig out and challenge yourself during the projects. His humor is like a breath of fresh air, and he's never condescending.

Davis is an awesome teacher! Hippy-ish, super funny and entertaining..you wont leave a class without laughing. He really made geography fun--and you learn stuff too:D I definitely would recommend him!

He's a great teacher. I would recommend him to anyone. I laughed a lot in his class. He made the class very interesting. Loved to learn about maps and the world.

Craig is great, passionate and inspiring and willing to help you outside of class. I remember always leaving class full of thoughts and ideas, surprised we had already used the entire period, and wishing we had time to continue exploring the content. Get interested in spatial dynamics (as they apply to society/culture) and take this course!

[3 Tests + Many opportunities to earn points + occasional extra credit] [Final Project Required] Fascinating class - he always keeps things interesting and down to earth. Flexible on turn ins and assignments, but not a push over. ++ Easy to understand. All assignments can be emailed in.

Craig is hilarious and very well informed. Very interesting class. Pay attention and take notes. Study for the three exams and maps.

Craig is a very very funny guy! But, don't be fooled his tests are not as easy as you would expect them to be! Read the emails he sends you! They are on the test. Study the map assignments also. He gives you extra credit opportunities, take advantage of them. Also, spend time on the semester project and start it early!

Davis is a good teacher, he is pretty funny and outgoing with his lectures. He offers many extra credit assignments, and they are worth a lot of points. The ONLY hard part of his class are the tests. So study really hard for his test and you should be okay. I would recommend taking his class.

Craig is a good teacher. Intelegent. Don't neglect his extra credit opportunitiees. Extra credits are not hard and they will help to keep your grade up because his tests are more diificult than I expected, anyway good chances to get B for this class. He usually send students many e-mails. Read them they are always related to class

He and Gene Sellers are the best instructors SCC has ever seen. Provides extra credit. Maintains class humor & interest while focusing on topic. I detest math and science but after taking Craig I am considering Geog as a Minor; if not Major! Do not sleep in his class! Do not come more than 15 minutes late! Do not miss more than 3 lecture days!

Davis is a good professor. If you are immature and talk to your friends in class he will not tolerate it. Make sure you do all the reading including the emails because he tests on all of it. If you are too immature to pay attention in class then he is not the professor for you, but if you are not an idiot then this class is for definitely for you.

One word to sum up Craig is patronizing or cocky. These words are a little harsh (sorry) but it's kind of true. He talks about the work like you should know it already. He has a hard time staying on subject. I had a hard time following taking notes. Found myself just staying home and studying the book, still passed the class with a high grade.

One of the best the professors that I had at Sac City. His lectures are fun and insightful. You would be a fool not to take his class. The class itself can be difficult at times, but if you read the text and show up for class you shouldn't have a problem. And if he ever talks about how good the KU basketball team is, remind about the VCU game, Lol.

You must pay attention because some of the information relayed in the lectures are definitely on the test and not from the book. He seems like a hard ass at first but thats only to weed out the students who are not there to really learn. I highly recommend this professor as he passes on some great information and life experiences!

Very genuine, true professor. I enjoyed his classes thoroughly and would recommend him to any student wanting to learn. Those who are looking for an easy way out, don't go to college. Never did understand those comments complaining something is too hard. His tests are systematic and set up for you to succeed - just do the work needed.

Great class. Highly recommend this professor and cultural geography.

This Professor is pretty funny and laid back. His Geog 300 class was fairly easy; he provides study guides before each test so as long as you follow it you'll do fine. The project kinda sucks but he gives a couple of options to choose from. Overall I'd recommend this Professor.

Craig is the best professor i have ever had. He teaches you by putting profound subjects into relatable ideas that you can understand. I would HIGHLY recommend craig.

(This review is solely for Geog390). Craig is my favorite professor at SCC. He's down-to-earth, friendly, easy-going, and yet wants you to do your best. He's very communicative. He will work with you to make sure you are getting the help you need. He has an awesome sense of humor and is flexible. If you get a chance definitely take his classes!

He is one of my favorite professors at Scc. He is very funny and will make you enjoy learning about Geography. He is really a awesome teacher.

Very energetic and excited about the material. Very engaging and approachable. Don't let his laid back style fool you. Readings, assignments, and tests are moderately difficult (older edition of text book = ok). Be prepared to learn some basic science concepts.

I took this class as a requirement for my major and did not really have a lot of interest in it. Prof. Davis proves himself to be one of the best profs I've had. Tests are easy if you study, a TON of extra credit opportunities, he's super understanding about the challenges of being a college student, and keeps things pretty light. Just don't be late! I would definitely take him again.

Very chill class. Gives a lot of extra credit if you show up. Tests are easy if you study. All homework is turned in via email.

This is is my fifth class with Craig. Seriously the best professor on campus, IMO. Friendly, approachable, compassionate, intelligent, engaging, humorous, animated, and very communicative. Tests easy if you did your homework!

craig is super great, just super duper duper ultra great teacher. take craig davis as a professor, you wont regret it.

Great teacher, sometimes goes off on tangents, but don't worry you will get all the information you need to succeed. After that It is up to you to study.

Prof. Davis is great. If you show up and are engaged, he will work with you and help you succeed. If you miss a ton of classes and show up asking for help, he is straight with you and tells you to step it up. If you behave like an adult, you will love Craig Davis. If he feels like he is babysitting you, you will be treated as such.

A great professor but he goes off on a lot of tangents and gets distracted easily so the lectures can feel like forever. However he is extremely smart and he is a funny guy. Tests aren't too tough and there is extra credit. You also must attend two outside events such as cultural meetings. Lastly, there is one essay but it is easy.

Davis is an overall outstanding Professor. He is very smart and has a great way of talking about things. I learned so much in his class. If you show up and do all of the reading that he assigns, which by the way isn't much then you will do well in his class. I have had lots of personal issue this semester and i am still passing his class.

Probably the funniest professor at SCC. You don't even have to go to class most of the time. When you go to class, all he does is make jokes while looking at maps. Gives no homework. Has one reading assignment but it's easy. His tests are okay though.

Professor Davis is a really chill professor . He speaks from stuff out of the book but the book is a necessity. Long as you participate and pay attention you will pass. Also read the book and do the work asked. Craig Davis also encouraged the student to go out and see nature, GREAT IDEA

Professor Davis is a great geography instructor. His lectures are pretty clear and consistent with the syllabus, tests are very straightforward with the syllabus too. He is always ready to help you for anything geography-related. Pretty relaxed, cultured.

if you are a geog major, this is the man to take your courses with. tooken most of his classes, one of the best professors I've had at city college. most people complain about his tests being hard, but honestly like any other class, you need to study and be ready. if you study, and study before the exams, you'll ace them.

Super funny, knowledgeable about the subject, and a very fair grader. Just read the instructions, do the assigned homework, pay attention in lectures, and there's no way you won't get an A. Had a lot of fun in this class.

I'm not really a big fan of Geography but he made it interesting. He is so funny and his first test is pretty hard especially if you are not familiar with the basics. I suggest everyone to get the book and read it ! most of the concepts are in great detail. Also make sure to read his emails that is going to be part of the first test.

One of the funniest teachers I've ever had. This class is easy, laid back and fun

Loved Craig! He makes class fun and something that you want to go to. I took him for cultural geog and would love to take him again.

Great class! Made the whole course fun and interesting.

Great professor! Made class fun! But don't be fooled, start on your study guide early and read his emails. Take notes in class and ask questions. He's awesome

One of the most inspiring professor I have ever known. He makes the class exciting with his energy and overall very clear on what his tests are about. If you simply read the textbook you'll do great on the tests.

All around great teacher. His lectures are interesting and is one of the few classes I was looking forward to go every week. For test it was a 50 multiple choice questions and a written part.

His best classes are those that involve his passion-cultural geography. Stay up-to-date with current events & relate them to your weekly homework. Expect a few exams & a final project. Engage with him & the course material & you will find Davis to be absolutely delightful. He wants you to succeed, so show up on time & do the work & you will do well

His lectures don't always include everything on the test. Best to read the chapters in the textbook. He makes you attend two events outside of class. Offers extra credit. Tests are kind of hard, just make sure to read the textbook. He's lighthearted and makes what most people would consider a boring subject bearable.

Excellent professor, especially for a community college. He does a great job of engaging the class and keeping things from getting boring. Show up to class and have a basic interest, and he'll meet you halfway. Don't show up late.

This professor is absolutely awesome. Legit, he is so funny, so interesting, and really open to helping his students do well. Super accessible over email, and really fair in his grading. Be prepared to read, though, as the textbook for the course I took covered a lot of material. I highly recommend this professor.

Craig is an all around fun Professor. He is really into his lectures and is always funny, i can bet you will always be laughing at some of the things he says. He can get a little bit off topic but he will make up for it. Test are easy, just remember most places on maps and read the articles he sends you, he will ask for a summary on tests.

There is extra credit offered. Lots of work to do. Map working, watching videos, reflections and etc.. Quizzes online and exams in person. Book is online, FREE. Very approachable and funny. If you stay on track of your stuff you can pass.

-Homework was pretty easy to accomplish (even if you procrastinate) -Lectures were very informative, got off topic at times but it was relevant to the subject -very approachable, laid back vibes -subject itself was very interesting, a nice mix of physical and cultural geography

Not boring and makes fun of things. Talks and learns about things related to class. A lot of extra credit opportunities. Easy Homework, project is just big version one homework.

3 exams. Fill in blanks. T/F. Multiple choices. Short essay. Map questions. No textbook because he has PowerPoint so you can print them out. A lot of extra credit. Homework is to take care of yourself and read a book. Will be one book report about Geography. Simple. Take his class if you want to pass. A.

Overall great class. Prof is funny, intelligent, and engaging. Be warned, you will NOT get away with cheating in this class! He will find you, no matter how sneaky you are, and you will be kicked from the class. I know cause a guy was kicked out of my final yesterday for cheating. Don't make the same mistake. Otherwise, great class! DO THE READING!

You don't learn a lot in this class but it's a really easy A. Just come to lecture and take some notes but his study guide the exam (like literally). Very easy to approach, eager to help, but if you cheat you are finished. I knew a girl who cheated on her paper and he gave her an F. She could've been in UCLA today. Word,put in the time, easy A

I love Craig! He's the best geography teacher at SCC! Would and have recommended him to many people. All of his classes are easy A's, make sure to study the guides. He doesn't throw curve balls so you're bound to get an A unless you're umm.... He makes lecture fun, entertaining, and easy to digest. He can be scattered at times, kumbaya.

Professor Davis is a cool and funny guy. Class was an easy A. He hilariously puts people on the spot when they're late and if it's done multiple times he tells them to beat it. Really chill class, fun, and engaging. Can get a bit dry but Prof. Davis is pretty good at making geog easy to understand/tolerate. He is understanding 100% recommend.

Study and pass. Easy A!! Davis is the best geog prof. Makes geog interesting and easy to understand. Would 100% recommend.

He'll give you exam reviews with everything that you need to know, if you study and read the chapters you'll do well. He's pretty chill just don't cheat or be late because he'll call you out. The map labelling was a bit hard for me so I'd suggest spending extra time remembering precisely where things are. There's also extra credit.

Learned a lot. If you have a heartbeat, you can pass this class. Study, read, if you cant do that, then maybe you should rethink your motives for attending college in general.

Craig is a really cool dude and his lectures are fun. I learned a lot more about really specific things than general concepts of geography. That was nice. You will get lots of info in lectures, but not a lot of it will be on tests. The real work is reading. I'll be honest, I didn't get the book, but I passed. I'd recommend it for a better grade.

Field GEOG class. Very hands on and learned a lot as well as enjoyed class. Will do it over and over again.

Craig is very personable. Lectures are not one sided at all, if your class is quiet and doesn't answer any of his questions then he gets peeved. Makes the class go by quickly, always switching around tabs on his browser to look up whatever weird things he just remembered. If you like participating in class then you'll have a good time.

Take notes on all his lectures! Extra credit available and if you need help dont hesitate to ask .

Excellent Professor. His lectures are all over the place, but it keeps them interesting and enjoyable. He is always able to connect it back to what you are learning about that day and it makes the lessons more relateable. Lots of negative comments because he actually expects you to read and study a bit on your own but study guides are provided.

Professor Davis is hilarious! I want to take another class from him. I really enjoyed learning about the Earth and the way it works. He makes the material easy to understand. There are only a few tests so make sure you study hard for them - they make or break your grade!

Grwat personality!!

Craig is awesome! I took him for 3 classes. Just do your work and you'll do just fine. Don't try to BS him. He's clear on grading and his lectures are fun. He's really funny.

Best professor I have had at this miserable school. He gets the whole class excited and clearly loves his job. Super cool and you forget you're in class, since almost every lecture turns into a lively discussion with everyone involved. Geography was already my major but he revitalized my passion for it. Professor Davis deserves a raise or something

Took him during pandemic semester. Grade based off weekly discussion, assignment and quiz. Discussions due by Thurs night & assignment /quiz due by Sun. Prints a PDF of book chapter each week so you don't need to buy it, although a donation to the other is optional. A couple extra credit opportunities, feedback discussion boosted 91 to 94 so do EC!

Professor Davis does a good job accumulating a lot of resources for students to access, the text book is also free and pretty good and straightforward with some cool fun facts as well! Overall course work was extremely predictable and laid out plainly and clearly for the class it wasn't too much either.

Gives lots of resources, many extra credit opportunities. Week starts Friday morning, everything due Thursday night. Straightforward lay out, grading, and weekly assignments. If you do the work, and somewhat try, you'll pass. A little more work than average. Three tests, One book project, 5 q quiz every week. Really passionate about geography.

Prof. Davis was the only professor I had this semester that got me interested in his subject. I wanted to get the work done and move forward but ended up learning from him. Very good professor, not sure why his ranking is so low but he does a great job. Very cool guy, very good class, highly recommended.

This class is pretty interesting and you're definitley going to learn something new. It isn't boring. The quizzes are a little tough, but discussions are easy. The tests are worth the majority of the grade. He doesn't accept late work / doesn't open modules early. I wouldn't say this class is hard you just have to try a little bit to get an A.

If you're a Geography major or are remotely interested in GIS and other geospatial technologies, this class is a must take! There's a midterm and final exam and one final project, along with small labs almost every week to get you accustomed to using GIS especially. As an intro class, Craig just does a great job getting you the information you need

He was an interesting professor. I learned from him even when he was off-topic. You have to read the book, usually one chapter per week, or else you won't understand the lectures. But the lectures are great a supplement. My tip is that I always requested him to post test review sheet in the beginning and would use it to outline the book.

The tests are easy and almost all the questions can be found in the book. He is a cool guy and does try to help people out. To be honest I barely watched the lectures as almost all the test questions can be found in the book. Some of the writing assignments are difficult and confusing but that is my only complaint 9/10 would take again

Professor Davis has a fun, engaging teaching style, but the class can be challenging if you don't keep up with the material. The tests are tough, so using study tools like Unstuck AI alongside the textbook is very helpful. Overall, a rewarding course if you're willing to put in the work.

Punctual. Has very funny stories to tell. You will read and you will need to take notes during the class. If you stay on top of things you will be fine. Most people seem to have a negative view on him but he tries to teach the class and get them engaged. Gets frustrated when the class doesn't participate or doesn't know the answer to something.
