He was my favorite teacher for my freshman year. Great guy and the classes are fun and he's funny. Strongly recommend! Classes are simple and the notes are provided online. So you just print them out and go to class. No taking notes! Test were pretty easy and I would just study the night before.

This prof has horrendous grading policies. It takes him too long to grade, so you don't know what you need to improve for the next project. His tests are poorly written, projects are a complete joke, and he doesn't grade writing on short writing assignments in a writing intensive class!!

I thought he was a really good teacher. I got a C because I slacked, not because he sucks. He is pretty clear about what he expects and demands.

Very interesting class. Good movies. Tests were kinda difficult..even if you think you know what the answer is. all multiple choice. Go to class b/c you might miss important movies

Not a free A but not impossible either. If you come to the classes and do the work you will at least get a B. Put a little effort in and you will earn the A. Discussions are fun to participate in and he tries to involve anyone who wishes to participate. Tests are not that hard as long as you do a bit of studying.

Very nice man. Test are somewhat challenging, but if you put time into studying, you should be fine. Fun class to go to because of the discussions. Guzzo has a great sense of humor as well. Definitely recommend him!

Tests are next to impossible, doesn't clearly state what is wanted for the writing, but all in all, he's a good prof.

Not easy. Guzzo is a really cool guy, but I went into the class thinking I could get an A by studying the notes and such before the tests. The tests are impossible. On his 2nd exam I looked at the list, and there were 0 A's, about 80% were C's and lower. Grading on paper seemed unfair to the requirements.

Lots of information to intake, class was boring to me, do well on the papers, when preparing for the tests study to understand the concepts in your own way and not just to memorize...know what your studying! class is not hard just a lot of info and notes

Can do terrible on exams & still get an A! very helpful teacher. I would recommend studying ALOT for exams. but if you average a C then you can still pass with an A, just do extra well on the papers! Lots of information, but would definately recommend him as a teacher!!

Good teacher. Lectures can be boring but papers are easy! Test are almost impossible, no one gets an A on it. 100 question tests and never clarifies what will be on it.

Great professor. He is pretty funny and very easygoing. There were a few questions on the exams from the book. Get the book from the reserves at Dunbar and skim over it. For a basic general education class, I would greatly recommend this class and Dr. Guzzo!

He's a good teacher but the tests are very detailed. You must attend the classes with movies-the material from the movies will be on the tests. There is also a great deal from the book on the test. Overall not bad though.

I'm not sure why all the people on here are saying his tests are hard, they're not. I didn't even read the book for a while, just went to class and took notes, and I did fine. But if you don't want to go to class, reading the book works too! and I got an A on a paper that I thought I would get a C on. Really good teacher, and he's really funny!

Dr. Guzzo was a great professor. He made the classes interesting and is very generous when grading. I found the tests pretty easy, especially the final. He's very prompt with responding to e-mails and grading assignments. Overall, the class was very enjoyable. I would take it again.

Very frustrating class. One miserable, difficult impossible test, one crazy easy one, one medium one. Nothing from lecture was on tests, it all came from obscure passages in the book. Not all "facts" had a basis in fact. Take a different Gen Ed besides Socialism 200 if you can. Subject was awful and this prof promoted self entitlement! Ugh!

Dr. Guzzo is AWESOME!!!!!!! He will do whatever you need to help you get the grade YOU want to get. Don't piddle-fart around, don't sit in a corner on your lonesome, ask to see every test afterwards to see what you got wrong and definitely do the papers the best you can and then some and you have a guaranteed A!!!

The class is fun, and very easy to get in to. He has a wonderful teaching strategy and I would definitely take him again. Classes are mandatory due to videos and discussions in class. 1st writing assignment is kinda tough, while the second is easy. Buy the ebook and study the pretest, posttest, chapter tests, and online flashcards to get an EZ A

Dr. Guzzo is awesome. His lectures were amusing and it was well worth attending class. His tests are based partially on the book but I found I didn't need the book; studying and attending class is a must! He had a heart attack in lecture one day and didn't return for the rest of the semester, but if he does return to teaching, take him!
