First of all he is VERY animated and at 8:00 pm it is too much! After about 15 minutes I am over it. But the class content is very interesting. Grades hard on paper but tells you that up front. Tests are not easy but study and read the text and you will be fine.

Professor Farr has high expectations for his students, but at the same time he is eager and willing to help. Your grade will consist mostly of three exams and a paper. The exams are moderately difficult but if you study you can do well. The paper is assigned early in the semester so you should have no problems. He's challenging but worthwhile.

Fair and very interesting! I'd take him again. Attendance is required--and important if you want a good grade! But if you put the effort, he is willing to help!!

First, I would like to say that this class should be challenging (it's an upper-level college course). With that being said, it was quite easy to make an A in this class, as long as the right amount of effort was put in (reading, studying, coming to class... the basics). Super funny/helpful guy and extremely interesting content.

Took his deviance class online. The material is interesting, and he seems to really love the subject, but he makes assignments way harder then they should be for sociology. One of the hardest graders in the program, and his quizzes and tests are really difficult. Even the syllabus quiz! Not easy.

He really is a great professor. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about the subject. He has a great sense of humor and makes the class fun. However, he does hold you to a standard for your work ethic and tests are quite difficult. NOT a class you can pass by doing the bare minimum. He challenges you but it will make the grade worth it!

Step 1: Get the book. Step 2: Read the book. Step 3: Participate in the class discussions. Basically, the class will not go well for you if you don't show up prepared. It is not an easy class, but for those wanting to learn, there is no better place. The class revolves around a lecture and open discussion. The tests come mostly from the book.

I have taken Daniel Farr for multiple classes (co-op, social dev., among others), and my experience with him has been pleasant. Beyond pleasant, He is very understanding and I didn't have too much trouble contacting him--he does have a life, like all of us do, but he always responded within a reasonable amount of time. Do the work. You'll pass.

Great teacher, really knows his stuff. He makes the lectures really interesting, class was never boring. If you try and actually do what's expected of you and do the reading an A shouldn't be a problem, if you are a slacker, like me, and don't you still should be fine as long as you try in class and take notes, watch the films and participate.

I took Professor Farr during Fall Semester. Easiest A that I've ever made. There is a quiz every week, and he gives you TWO chances with a paper that is merely about what you learned throughout the semester. His exams are super easy. He was always willing to help me, and maintained a courteous, friendly manner throughout the semester. A+, indeed!

Great guy who really cares about the students and is easily accessible. Make sure you read, because he relies heavily on the textbook and discussions. Stay on top of the course and be involved. Be aware, he grades very roughly on the project and doesn't give much instruction online... But its an interesting class.

THERE ARE SEVERAL PAPERS, POSTER, PRESENTATION, AND OTHER SMALL ASSIGNMENTS HE GIVES. THIS IS FOR AN INTERNSHIP GRADE AND HE MAKES YOU WORK FOR ITTTTT!!! GREAT TEACHER, BUT HAS HIGH EXPECTATIONS. PLAN FOR THIS TO BE A BIT TIME CONSUMING. YOU CAN DO IT, BUT PLAN TO WORK HARD. I RECEIVED AN "A". I WORK FULL TIME, DID THE INTERNSHIP, AND OTHER CLASSES

Easy class and easy A. Only reason I did not get an A was because I did not finish the essay that's worth a large portion of the grade. Quizzes are easy and tests are based on the quizzes. He responds to emails quickly and drops many of your low scores. You have to watch documentaries and write on them, but they were all interesting. Recommend.

He is very clear about his expectations for the class. Also very helpful and accessible outside of class if you have questions. 2 discussion posts and quizzes per week, exams are hard but not if you are prepared! This class was more challenging than I expected, but as long as you have any work ethic you'll make it.

Hard? Yes. Snarky at times via email? Yes. But not as bad as so many reviews claim. He's clear about his expectations and gives great instructions (and examples) on how to properly complete assignments. He's a tough grader, but cares about the subject which is admirable. Just stay on top of your work, follow instructions, and you'll do great!

Dr. Farr is a fantastic professor. He is knowledgable in the content (even if it is an intro course) and genuinely wants the class to participate and learn. He was kind and respectful to all the students, and even asked for pronouns on the first day of class to make sure everyone felt comfortable.

Loved Dr. Farr! He is so inclusive and respects all people and their values. I learned a lot from him mostly because his discussions are engaging. Lectures are straight forward, but he expects you to read the chapters from the book beforehand to have a better discussion. The material is relatively easy to comprehend and grading is clear.

100/10 recommend. He's a cool prof for taking intro-level classes and he is very skilled in being an online professor. Made class discussions fun and interactive and actually relates to his students.

Discussion posts and quizzes (open note) every week. I almost always got extra credit on posts. Just be creative. If I didn't understand the prompts he gave I would create one. I think he likes creativity. Tests were average. Study the quizlet/study guide and you will pass. It is long but the learn feature helps and I didn't read much of the book.

Great prof, as long as you do the work, its an easy A. Tons of extra credit and Farr is super funny. Openbook quizzes and online discussion. Understands that Soci is not everyone's major but a prereq. Didn't like Sociology until I took Farr's class. Very informative and super engaging. It's not designed to trick you, just do the work, its an easy A

I love professor Farr! You can pass the class with an A if you put in the effort and work. Quizzes are open notes, while the test is with a lock-down browser. There are 4 exams, he will drop the lowest grade. He gives so much extra credit. Study the chapter key terms for the exams. He gives extra credit randomly if you attend class. Don't skip.

There were plenty of chances for redemption for your grade. Your lowest grade for each quarter in each syllabus category was dropped. His lectures were interesting and he was a very sweet and caring guy. A lot of movies to watch and weekly assignments make up your grade (open-note). Attend class if you want (not necessary)

He was a pretty good professor. You don't have to attend the lectures to pass, just go over the powerpoint. He drops the lowest discussion posts and quizzes. It's an easy class to pass.

Dr. Farr is EXTREMELY organized for an online class! He made it so easy to access course information. You MUST read the textbook chapters because the quizzes directly correlate with them. I learned that the hard way with the 15 minute quizzes! There were weekly quizzes and discussion boards, so time management is important. I loved the course!

Dr. Farr is a great professor who makes his class very accessible to first semester students. He is clear with deadlines/grading scales and knows how to use D2L very well. Plenty of chances for extra credit + he drops a few grades every quarter. There's a decent amount of reading and films to watch, but none of the assignments were super in-depth.

I really liked Dr. Farr! His lectures were so interesting, and I learned a lot. The amount of assignments that he gave was fair, and he gave a good amount of extra credit. Participation does matter in class so make sure you show up and answer a few questions. Great guy and very understanding. I would definitely take him again.

His class was very easy, would recommend taking the hybrid course. He dropped a grade from every category. Always offered extra credit for exams, and one of the exam grades gets dropped. Does require discussion boards but you can get 115/100 and only have to do 4. Quizzes were at home, open note, and 10 questions and directly from powerpoints.

Great teacher overall. Fun and quirky guy, makes lectures somewhat interesting. This course is really easy if you just do the work. The work is always the same thing and he lays out due dates EXTREMELY well. If you miss an online assignment it is 100% your fault. Never studied for a single test in that class and averaged a 78. He also drops stuff.

Take him, if he is your only option!!! He is a really nice professor. He grades really fast, his exams aren't hard if you study well for it. Most of the questions in the exams come out from the lecture slides and practice quizzes. you will have to do a discussion post and reply with not less than 150 words to at least one person per week.

Great professor! Kind and personable. 1-2 quizzes weekly along with weekly discussion posts with replies. Interesting discussion topics and straightforward grading criteria. Films once per quarter, but you can get away with skipping them as long as you do the film review study guide. Quarterly exams with lockdown browser required. Highly recommend!

Dr. Farr is amazing and deserves a raise. Don't take this course if you're not willing to try or if you're used to breezing through classes, but he genuinely cares about the learning and success of students and is very helpful if you ask for it. He's helped me in the class and with college advice in general and is very accessible outside of class.

tbh i don't get the hate, professor is funny and very accommodating. i believe he truly cares for his students based off my personal interactions with him! there are chapter quizzes once a week (super easy and open note), you should have 4 exams (one being the final) worst exam grade is dropped and same with worst quiz grade from each quarter

I don't get the hate. Many of these reviews seem to be from students who think they shouldn't have to try in classes. There were 3 units, 4 quizzes per unit, and 2 discussions per unit. The lowest quiz and discussion grade per unit was dropped. There was a final paper, but he gives you all the resources for it. No final test, just the unit 3 test.

Nice guy, attendance not necessary, easy quizzes, the only issue is the test were just so impossible for me personally to pass with high grades. I recommend going to study sessions.

Literally went to two lectures, did 0 extra credit, got 70's on exams and still passed with a decent grade. He's a cool guy and it's an easy class I would just make sure you focus on studying for exams.

Dr. Farr is a great professor. There are many chances for extra credit, although it is a work heavy class. There are a lot of quizzes, exams, events that you need to write papers for, and about 11 documentaries that need to be watched along with textbook chapters. He does have a very liberal bias on topics like feminism if that matters to you.

Dr.Farr was pretty great! You really just need to make sure you stay on top of all the assignments but the assignments themselves are pretty easy. Also, just study for the tests using quizlets and his powerpoints and you should be great! He also is very quick to answer questions online.

Professor Farr was a pretty chill guy tbh. I did the absolute barest of minimums- never really came to class, studied for exams the night before, and still maintained an A the entire semester. Biggest critique is he once dripped sweat all over my scantron because he had to run around the entire lecture hall verifying our IDs. Content is vocab-heavy

I barely attended class and did well. There are no quizzes or papers just tests, which are basically vocab tests. It's really important to pay attention to the key terms. 2 KSU based activities, he offers a list and they do not require that much effort. You can get by without watching the movies. But he does offer extra credit based on them.

Not sure why there aren't good ratings for him. he's super chill and funny and the class is not difficult whatsoever. Attendance is not mandatory and you can definitely get an A without going much. Lots of extra credit and exams are very similar to the quizzes. Also gives practice quizzes that don't count which is a great study tool.

He is such a genuine professor and makes class engaging with his sense of humor. You have to try, but he does cares for students. Provides lots of materials to support learning. 10/10 recommend!

Dr. Farr is one of the better professors at KSU. He responds well to emails and is very kind and wants the best for his students. This course was a little more difficult than average, but if you study and actually read the material, it's fine. Yes, he is strict about cheating with lockdown browser, but if you follow his directions you will be okay.

These reviews shocked me but maybe my experience was different online. For me, this class was relatively simple. Do the quizzes, the 2 activities, and the exams, and you'll be fine. Sometimes questions on quizzes throw me, but other than that it's not hard to do well at all. You literally just have to do work which is what school is lol.
