Easy class. It can be interesting if he shows videos but other than that you can plan for his class to be extremely boring. Good news is that you do not have to stay. Just show up and sign the sign-in sheet and then you can leave. Guarantee that half the class will be doing that by the 3rd week of class.

All in all, he's a very easy teacher. If you read the chapters beforehand and study the notes he posts on blackboard, you'll do great on his exams. His lectures are exacly what his notes are, however he does show alot of short videos that are not in his notes but are always on the test. Good teacher though, who really enjoys Sociology.

Very kind teacher, gives curves, and really passionate about sociology. As an older student (2nd degree), I sort of feel bad for him how most students leave after they sign in, or talk when he's talking. I couldn't hear "obviously" due to all the rude door slamming of people leaving out the back! Used the book too, along with his ppts.

He's a sweet guy HOWEVER he has a very heavy accent and you cant understand a word he says. There are no microphones in the room so unless you sit in the 1st 2 rows of the room you wont hear anything he has to say. He sporadically uses "obviously" which can get on your nerves and completely distracts from the conversation. NOT an easy A.

He's an all right teacher. He is very passionate about what he's saying, but most of the time I am unsure what ranting about taxes and the government for entire lectures have to do with sociology. Only three tests, and they are not that hard. Study the powerpoints, and attend class once in a while for attendance points.

Wow, obviously Dr. Lukasik has good and bad classes--Global Society is not the best class to take with him! I took during a short summer semester and it was unbelievably hard and boring. I'm not a history person and this class has lots of it. I made it to an overall B with him--3 tests, 1 research paper. Class may make you not like sociology.

He is an alright teacher. He tends to stray off topic but if you listen and take notes you will pass the class with no problem! The book beyond 1-2 questions is useless because everything you need to know is either in the lecture or the powerpoint. Although he can be boring, he is passionate about the subject and you can learn something.

Get ready to wait for him to find articles in a stack of paper and hear him say "uhhhhh" all the time. He's really emotional when vocally disagree with him. Overall I was completely lost in this class.

Certainly an easy A class. Majority of things taught in this class were already common sense. Lectures a lot, often reads straight from powerpoints but what isnt on the powerpoints that he lectures about is equally important. 3 exams, very easy, two papers (got 100 on both-super easy), will need revel access code + randomly takes attendance

He's an ok professor but heavily unorganized. At the beginning of the semester I was so confused about what materials were needed and how to use these materials. In his class for me it was more of a self teaching process rather than a him teaching. I even attended class and still found it hard to understand how he teaches.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS IF YOU ACTUALLY WANT TO LEARN SOMETHING! This was probably the most unprofessional, disorganized professor I have ever taken. Given, the class was pretty easy and you didn't have to go everyday because everything is in the PowerPoints. But his exams are 60 PERCENT of your grade. His lectures are terrible and he talks in circles.

Per his treatment of students during the COVID-19 pandemic, this teacher was grade! I would recommend in-person as he is definitely more comfortable with doing that but that may change for spring! A discussion post every week and occasional homeworks... tests are easy! My only complaint is I wouldve preferred in person!

He was not as terrible as everyone is making it seem. The class is fairly easy because there are not that many assignments. You have to buy the access code for the textbook and thats where you do the quizzes. You have to write 2 papers (which arent worth much which sucks) The only bad thing is the exam is 60% of your grade.

DO NOT TAKE. This is the worst class I've taken at FAU because this professor is just so disorganized. The syllabus doesn't match up to any of the due dates and it's unclear what is expected. I constantly felt like I was missing something.. The quiz's were kind of confusing. and he was rude and dismissive when I emailed him about it

Terrible teacher, he makes his own quizzes which are IMPOSSIBLE to pass, people only passed cuz they cheated, the questions are irrelevant and impossible to have known without looking at powerpoint charts. Grading scale is harsh getting A's on huge papers doesnt even move your grade up all. interesting material but you arent tested on it so u fail.

His quizzes are unorganized and we even had to have him fix the grades because he marked correct answers wrong, as if he doesn't even know the material he's teaching. He was also rude when I tried to contact him. For a 2000 level course he made this class extremely difficult, from making everything single spaced to over complicating material.

He was an amazing professor. His class covered relevant topics: racism, sexism, classism, sociological perspectives. His lectures were interesting and he makes you laugh because he's quite quirky when it comes to tech. He is knowledgeable and passionate about sociology. Also work is so easy you can find answers in textbook and only two papers!

I should've headed the previous warnings because they are all true. To put it simply: 1. Quizzes are impossible to pass and I have a 3.8 GPA 2. He gives A LOT of work, do not take this class in the summer. 3. No matter how much I study or look at the powerpoints, his questions only make sense to him. Only take this class if you need a B or C.

We have Discussion boards weekly with 2 responses to classmates, quizzes weekly some are hard, and 5 Q Papers out of 12 topics from each week. He gives PowerPoints and has recorded lectures. The quizzes do not show which ones get wrong. There is 1 research paper or opt to do group presentation (recommend single) the instructions are difficult.

Don't take Greg's courses if you feel like keeping your GPA up. His quizzes are ridiculously confusing and weigh super heavy on your grade. They are almost impossible to pass and his lecturing style is disorganized and confusing.

This was the worst class I have ever taken at FAU. I found the information displayed in the most boring way and he gives wayyyy too many assignments weekly. Expect to write at least 6 papers and take a quiz every week. He also throws in discussion boards and projects. It is insane to me that he has his course set up like this. Stay away!!!

Links for videos attached to assignments don't match up to the links required to watch for papers. Canvas is obviously not updated from years prior with dates to confirm. Online classes with no Zoom lectures and quizzes ask questions based on in-class discussions, which simply never happened.

Honestly, this professor was pretty good. The lectures might have been something I wasn't interested in but it was easy to catch up quickly to what he was saying. He's very passionate about what he teaches too. His exams are pretty straight forward, most of the info can be gathered through his slides and PowerPoints he uploads.

He's a great professor, his teaching style might not be for everyone, however, he truly shows how passionate he is with his lectures. For the exams and quizzes, they're mostly focused on the PowerPoints and lectures he has. His class focused on real world problems. Overall Greg is a pretty genuine and interesting person who loves to teach.

I loved this professor, he was a sweet older man. He was always available for questions after class. He made his lectures super interesting with current examples. The only thing I would be cautious of is the fact that your grades are occasional attendance, 2 papers, and 3 exams. Besides that he had a couple extra credit in class assignments.

We just sit in class lamenting about racism, homophobia, and sexism, even though anyone with a brain realizes no one cares about those things anymore. Feels like we are stuck in 2020 with the activism topics, and I just came to learn about sociology and the way people act socially. Can be taken for a different perspective, but his points are weak.

He's okay, his lectures are usually behind the assignment which makes out for a lot of time doing your own studying. Few assignments though which can be nice if you get good grades on them. I don't think I would take again because of his teaching style; not for everyone.
