wow... where to begin. she gives ok notes i guess. lectures are boring. i honestly think that she isnt all there in the head. the class involves inclass videos and CPS pads, which are a waste of time and money in this class, but they are required. text is almost unnessecary. easy class but it sucks at the same time.... the class is all common sense but with a vocab list and a little bit of history.

How this prof was during the pandemic: face-to-face only and could've communicated more outside of lecture (as far as assignment/reminders); so you have to attend or have a friend in the class to know some things.

I had Professor Bouzard for her sexuality class and it was so inspiring/eye opening. Each test has a paper, and 50 questions. One lit review paper, makes you look at recent research on a topic of sexuality- was very fun if you loved reading! (Like me) Would love to take this class again!

This class was so much fun! The professor really sets a comfortable environment to talk about a lot of serious topics. Most of our lectures was actually just class discussion since the content was short. Each test has an essay and then theres one giant research paper but its all relatively easy.

Such an easy class. The only grades in this course are the online textbook assignments (which are completion grades), the 3 in-person exams, and in-class group work. The exams are not hard as long as you study for them. Bouzard makes study guides that are very helpful on the exams so just look over them before test day.

I absolutely loved Professor Bouzard's lectures, I changed my major to sociology during this course if that shows any significance. Exams do need a fair amount of studying but they are usually curved slightly as A's (at least in my class) were rare. I plan on taking her sexuality class soon. 10/10 she is wonderful.

Professor Bouzard is the sweetest person ever. Lectures are easy to follow. The class is extremely easy. The attendance isn't mandatory. You don't need to go to class to pass, all you have to so is make to take notes on the powerpoints on canvas and do the vantage assignments which takes like 20 minutes max and gives you all the right answers.

I loved this class solely based on Prof Bouzard. She gives great lectures and is always willing to explain if you don't understand. There are 4 tests, and vantage assignments are super easy. Highly recommend her!!!

You can tell the professor cares about what she is teaching, which makes lectures interesting. Vantage assignments are easy to complete, and tests follow the vantage chapters and lectures. Attendance isn't mandatory but the lectures are more helpful for the tests.

Shes a sweet lady, very understanding. attendence doesnt matter but you do have to attend on group work days, however group work days are super easy and essentially you just need to participate in the assignment for that day. overall shes super chill and i would take her again!!

This class was not difficult when it came to homework. The part that messed up my grade was the difficulty of the tests which are 54% of the grade. Your grade will be determined by how much outside effort you put into studying. She is funny and a great person and knows her subject very well.

For an introduction class, this class is pretty easy. 3 tests over the material, with the last one counting as your "final." The professor is very sweet and loves to engage with her classes. Keeping up with the homework is really easy, and group work is listed as dates in the syllabus, so you know when you have to attend/when you can skip.
