Gary is a very excentric individual. He works very hard at playing the devils advocate. Subjects will be brought up in the class that you never would have expected, and he will shock you with his "wit" (ha) and foul language. Don't take him if you have strong morals and beliefs.

Gary Solomon may be a good professor for people who don't have values or people who didn't have to pay for an education. I feel the majority of his class was a complete waste of my time. There were several instances where I was disgusted by his opinions on certain subjects. Young people already have problems with morals. Easy "A" though.

Professor Solomon is a wonderful professor! The class is stress free. There is absolutely no homework. He outlines the book for you and tells you what will be on the final. The class has no quizzes, no tests, just an APA formatted paper (on a topic he chooses) one final at the end of the semester. If you attend every class you are guaranteed a C.

Dr. Solomon is fabulous! He is absolutely out of control (in a good way!) He knows that 99% of the students are only taking Psy 101 because it is required. You are guarenteed at least a C if you show up, turn in the paper and take the final. It is practically impossible to fail this class! It's Psy put into real world application. Two thumbs up!

This class is an awesome class. It's fun, and exciting, and Dr. Solomon seems to understand and relate to all of his students. He knows when we get bored, and will crack a quick joke to get our attention again. It's super easy to pass, with only a final paper (under 3 pages) and a midterm. Both of which you don't even have to try on to get a C!

Dr Solomon is the best teacher I have ever had. He is different in the aspect of grades and teaching. He believes its not the grade that proves whether or not you learned something, but rather that he hasn't done his job if you haven't left with a better understanding. More teachers should be like him :] Absolutely, take his class

The laziest professor I have ever had. There are several videos, very little lecturing, and he mostly tells stories about his life. On top of this, he lets the class early every time! If you want an easy A this is the class for you. You have to write a very short paper and for the final, he basically gives you the answers ahead of time.

He's such a genius, he's weird. But he's cool! Wouldn't recommend his class. "Thinking outside the box" was fun, but I learned more about psychology in Carlo Defasio's class, and it's an EASIER "A", and it's FUN. Dr. Solomon is cool, but over-rated.

Professor Solomon is a great guy. This was probably the easiest class I have taken. Easier than any high school class that's for sure. The one thing you need to do is make sure you show up to his class.

Best teacher I have had at CSN. He is brilliant and changed my way of thinking of school and life in general. He inspired me to change my degree to PSY. Great guy, fun class.

Greatest professor of all time. The easiest class with no work, yet made me think the most. I looked forward to every single class he provided. Hilarious and if you can't take a joke don't take this class. Recommending everyone who needs PSY to take Doc Solomon. Definitely think outside the box.. Really don't have anything negative to say.

His class was easy and he is a funny guy, but I don't think it was a class worth paying for. You don't learn anything really and he doesn't teach much of anything. You mostly just learn from the presentations given by the others in the class. Although he is a nice guy I just would rather take a class where I actually learn something.

Solomon is a very caring teacher. He wants the best for his students you can literally not do anything in the class and he will still give you a C.But attendance is mandatory!There is no final or quizzes. The only thing you have to do is a 10 page paper and it's really simple!

This was his last semester and I hate to say that I'm happy about it. He was constantly talking about himself, I learned more about APA format than I did about Psychology.. It wasn't a traditional class, which would have been amazing if I could have learned what I had payed for, it was a complete waste of money, besides getting the credits for it..

Can't say enough good things about Prof Solomon & class. Liked not using traditional text. First day of class he announced "If you want a traditional psych class this in not the place for you." Emphasized "thinking out-side the box". Used everyday events to discuss psych issues. Liked learning APA style writing which I had not learned before.

Best teacher I have had at CSN. We had to research and present on a specific psychiatric diagnosis. Great sense of humor. Made me feel better about myself.

Dr. Solomon has been the most inspiring,and empowering professors I had ever met. His compassion for the students and passion for psychology clearly shows throughout the semester.Iam saddened to hear he had to resign, but I understand and support his decision. He's all about protecting the goodness in humanity. I'm honored&privileged to know him

I miss Dr. Solomon very much, he was one of the most inspirational people I've had the honor to come to know, and it deeply saddens me that he left the college. Solomon cared about all of his students and his final hurrah for all of us was a beautifully orchestrated boycott of the college to defend our rights. CSN's greatest treasure by far.

This was by far the easiest class I have ever had in my college education. You literally learn nothing and still get an A. If your a slacker this was the class to take. Lowest grade he gave students was a C that's if you choose not to do the APA style paper he assigns. Unfortunate he is no longer with the school anymore. Great professor

Professor Solomon was outrageous. He literally gets off on humiliating one of his students. Called her to the front of the class and demanded she knew the answer. When she was confused and said she didn't know he literally pointed his finger at her forhead and HUMILIATED this girl.
