I took him for multiple administration of justice classes and this guy is great. He is an ex-cop and a defense attorney with years of experience in the field and know pretty much everything. He is hilarious and he makes his lecture interesting. He is one of the best professors I've had and I won't mind being his student again and again.

I took his class for multiple different courses and outcomes were all nearly the same. you learn a LOT with this professor. Homework and Attendance is a MUST. Midterm and Final is based off what the homework. Easy A if you do the homework and review it as the questions from the homework are on the midterm and final. He will tell you what chapters.

He doesn't ask for a lot. Just do your homework, take notes in class, and review the homework answers before his tests and you'll pass. Tests are based on the exact same homework questions and he provides the answers for it after turning it in. He has a very nice and funny personality, but don't be late to class, you'll get on his bad side.

In my opinion this is an easy class, not as easy as just showing up, but at least doing the assignments that he passes out. I would say that you need the book 8/10. Plus those questions on the assignments are LITERALLY the same the questions that will be on the quizzes and test. if you show up late even 5 seconds after he will call you out on it

Power points can be used for the unit quizzes, but for the test you can use 1 page of paper with notes. He lectures well, and everything for the test and quizzes is given to you. He as well gives chapter fill ins, that really help a lot. Participation, and punctuality matter. Get their early on days that there are test, and quizzes.

Majority of your homework comes from the power points he does in class and gives you paper copies of the power-points. He allows you to use the power point notes for the quizzes only and it is an easy pass! If you are there everyday and paying close to his lectures, you are guaranteed to the pass the class.

This was seriously the easiest class I have taken at PCC. All the class consists of is a lecture (powerpoints), fill in the blank questions every week that are directly from the powerpoints, and a spelling test. All his test are open notes and are also directly from the power points. Be on time, he'll call you out if you're late.

Very easy if you show up and do all the assignments - literally every assignment including exams are multiple choice. Every assignment is also open book so easy A. Gallon as a professor is kinda rude and hard to approach but you don't need to talk to him much. If you want an engaging teacher that likes group discussion, don't take this class.

Look, Gallon is a nice person, however his style does not leave much room for questions or discussions (He once became visibly annoyed because I raised my hand). I question his passion for law. your grade is dependent on the midterm/final (multiple choice, however each question has a 40 second limit which to me is pointlessly unnecessary). 6/10
