he is a very cool instructor! the lecture meterials are excellent and he uses a lot of outside resources to make the lecture more fun. only 3 exams of the whole semester!
Awesome professor! Also a really fun class.
Amazing professor, one of my favorite classes ever.
Love him! Funny, cute, and interesting. Every class should be like his
AMAZING PROFESSOR. I would absolutely recommend taking this class. It is the only possible 8am class that can get me out of out bed. Hes hilarious& keeps things interesting, & is able to relate the subject matter to the students. His tests are very fair, and reflective of what he teaches. You have to come to class though! He does give pop quizes
Most awesome professor in hunter. Not only does he teach you the subject at hand but he makes it fun too. Come to class everyday and take notes and you'll get a nice shiny A for his class. Seriously one of the best professors at Hunter
TAKE HIM! His lectures are right on point. He is very helpful with any questions you may have. He has a sense of humor & best of all his EXAMS ARE INSANELY EASY!!! i recommend him 100%
I lovedd him! He is so helpful and his tests are straight from the lecture notes/review sheets. There are 3 tests throughout the semester and 2 easy and short papers. Take him, you won't regret it!
LOVED THIS CLASS!!!!! definitely take any class he teaches- tests are more than fair and he makes class interesting and fun :)
Best teacher at hunter! I learned so much from this class, because I couldn't possibly not pay attention to him! He's funny and just all around adorable. Can't wait to take more classes with him!
Amazing professor! 3 exams and 2 short papers. His exams are straight from the review sheets.
Best professor at Hunter I've had so far, extremely clear with his lectures, and his sense of humor makes him adorable.
He is open and has a wonderful sense of humor. I hope to take another class with him in a smaller class setting. Exams are fair, and 1 paper. He is worth taking!
Amazing Professor, Funny, keeps cool. One paper, not hard at all
An authentic Mr. Personality. He's very enthusiastic abt subject, communicates knowledge well (w min. scientific jargon), sweet and funny as hell. Tests are a breeze. He's also a great role model for anyone interested in research and/or teaching. Relays much personal experience. Overall delight! A gem. Taking him again.
He is a great Professor! His class was fun, interesting & informative. It's probably the best class I've ever taken at Hunter. He's very clear with instructions. He gives 3 exams (multiple choice & short answers). & one 5-page paper. Great class. Great Professor. Take him!
Best professor in Hunter. Entertaining and informative lectures. He's not the type of professor that wants to make your life miserable. He truly wants to enlighten your life with what he teaches. And it's a pleasure being in his class. I would take ANY class he teaches.
Amazing Professor! The only class you won't miss even if you have an emergency because it is so exciting and always new and fun just to be in class. You don't need to take any notes because it will just stay in your head so interesting and engaging his class is:)
Hands down my favorite professor. If I was capable of doing so, I would have him for EVERY one of my classes. He makes the class a lot of fun even though it is already quite interesting. Four quizzes that he literally tells you EXACTLY what is on them the class before and one paper of the topic of your choice. BEST professor at Hunter.
One of the best professors in hunter. He actually makes the class interesting and fun. He shows a lot of passion for his work. Test-wise: Studying the review sheet he gives, the questions are all from it. Requirement: one 5 pg paper on any subject related to the course.
very helpfull professor, makes his class interesting, provides clear explanations. not harsh on attendence. i would take him again. his exams are not hard however you must read the materials because he combines multiple choices with short essays. also need to write a research paper. still he is so cool, the best.
So happy I took this class!!! He makes his lectures incredibly interesting and he is hilarious! I found myself racing to get to class just to get a seat up in the front! Overall, he's amazing and I hope I can take more classes with him in the future!!
The best professor I have ever had. I loved him so much that I'm taking a Sunday class with him. I would never take a Sunday class for any other professor. He really knows his stuff and he knows how to teach! TAKE HIM!
Great professor. knows what he is talking about. and does his best to make the lecture as interesting and engaging as possible. Everyone can def pass his test if you attend his lectures and listen. I would recommend him to all my friends that want to take psych 170. Even if there are no seats. he takes overtally, just get it approved by dept.
So far, amazing. He's funny, nice, intelligent and is very clear about the material. If you study the review sheet before an exam you are guaranteed to get an A on it. He makes the class interesting and makes you want to attend it. No complains at all.
THE BEST TEACHER I'V HAD AT HUNTER SO FAR !!!, He's so enthusiastic and well prepared . I wish he taught allll psy classes !
You've read it all. Easy A professor, & makes it really interesting! 3 Tests. 1 Research paper due at the end of the semester. Light work.
Oh man, he is just too cool! He has that kind of personality where you can totally walk up and talk to him out of the blue. He gives very clear study sheets , 3 tests, 1 research paper. Take him!
he is PHENOMENAL !!!
Hunter is just a great professor all around. He's super smart, and his lectures are always fun. He makes the class memorable, so it's quite easy to do well on tests as long as you go over the study guide. He gives three tests and 1 paper, but you will never feel dragged down by work- and you WILL learn alot!
Best!
Attendance is not mandatory but to receive a good grade you have to go to classes. He rarely uses anything that is in the book and his personality is great. Highly recommend.
This guy is amazing! Attendance isnt mandatory but his class makes you want to come and learn. You will not be dissapointed he is very engaging and his exams are so str8 fwd it is literally from the study guide. If you fail his exam you either missed all his exam or didnt show up. 3 exams thats it. Talks alot about Homosexuals in his classes tho.
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME professor. My FAVORITE. Such a great sense of humor and makes the class incredibly interesting. Would absolutely take the class over and over again. HILARIOUS AND HUMBLE GUY!
Hunter is the best psych prof at Hunter, hands down. He knows his stuff, is super smart, funny, engaging, and just makes class fun. You actually learn but are not stressed out by the work. His class was 2 tests and a paper. He is just an awesome prof and seems like a great guy too. I wish he taught every psych class!
I love him! Best professor at Hunter college. I would like him to teach more psychology courses here, I would take them all. Already took both that he teaches. Great professor. Take him!
Great professor, very lenient, Not a strict professor at all, if you get the chance definitley take him i got to during the summer!
I took PSYCH 170 with Hunter during the summer & have no regrets. He makes it easy & fun to be in class. He welcomes discussion & if he doesn't know the answer to something he googles it right when you ask him. Instead of making you look it up online later. He really does want to educated people. Not a stressful class as long as you pay attention.
Professor Kincaid is fantastic. His class was fun, easy, engaging, and enjoyable. Review sheets are basically your tests. Very easy to get an A. Overall amazing professor
Engaging and easy going. Great professor. He teaches a lot of obvious stuff though. He gives a review sheet out before the test and it makes everything very easy. You don't need to buy the textbook. Also Psych of sex it is an extremely liberal class with a strong political message (obviously).
Fantastic Professor! I didn't even get the textbook. Everything is from lecture, so its best togo. gives a review sheet which are all the questions that are on test. So if you do the review sheet you will surely get a 100 on the test. The class is interesting. you have to try to attend all classes b/c the questions are specific things from class.
This guy is very relaxed and easy going. His exams are identical to the Review Sheet that he provides before class. Three exams, two participation assignments and one research paper. Easy A or even A+. Take Him!
The best professor I have ever had. He is fantastic and smart. The class is very interesting. It's an easy class. Highly recommend him!
As a professor for a sex psych class, he makes everyone comfortable. He is very clear and knowledgeable; drawing on many past researches and examples as he lectures. His review sheets are a MUST-DO. Most of it is based on lecture material, so attendance is recommended. I don't attend all the time but I got an A. I learned ALOT from him, though!
Professor Kincaid is very knowledgeable about the material. He makes the class fun and interesting. There are 4 short response papers, 1 research paper, a midterm and a final. I enjoyed taking the class for the summer! I would definitely remind taking him!
The sweetest and one of the best. it was a joy to see him everyday and he made each lesson and assignment worth doing. i loved him and wish i took him sooner! i would take every class with him if i could. a very smart and insightful person.
Professor Kincaid is by far one of the best professors I've ever had. He made every class interesting and all his assignments were fun to do. He was also very lenient with students handing in papers and homeworks late. I learned a lot from his class and his style of teaching really glued information to my head!
Super clear on what to expect and what he wants from students. Four short papers, 3 tests. Hilarious guy and super open about his researchlife. Shares lots of great Montana anecdotes. You'll seriously want to come to class. The material sticks with you after the class ends. Would def take again!
never missed the lectures because the guy is so interesting!
Wow.. My favorite professor of all time. 8am class and his class is the reason I wake up extra early to go to school. Amazing person, super helpful I wish he taught all Psych classes. You will adore him! I suggest you study for exams, they arent that bad though. I loved him!! Slides on BB , no attendance but show up anyway the lectures are helpful!
Took Prof. Kincaid for summer '14. The best professor ive had so far at Hunter. He really goes out of his way to make the material very understanding and fun at the same time. If he taught every psych class I would not hesitate to take him again.
So amazing that I took him for 3 classes. So simply dressed, yet such an intriguing person in general. Makes great use of clinical research and real life examples. Great sense of humor and not afraid to act like himself. Genuinely fun class. Do assignments + study sheet and get an A. You are my inspiration, just listening to you talk about life!
Taking his social psych was completely worth my Saturday mornings. I would take this class again in a heartbeat. Do not miss the opportunity to take a class with Prof Kincaid!!!!! No textbook so that means you have to go to every class, but his lectures are insightful and sometimes totally entertaining.
By far the best class I've ever taken. Professor Kincaid makes his classes interesting, and very informational. My mind has definitely been opened by taking this class, and I remember everything I've learned in order to inform others. My only con is when he would cancel an 8am class at 6:30am on the SAME day, but besides that he's awesome!!!!
Literally the best professor I have EVER had. His lectures were unbelievably interesting and he was extremely helpful and understanding with his assignments. If you come to class and actively listen to his lectures you will get a good grade on his testsassignments, which are always word for word what was in his lectures, which are all put online
Professor Kincaid is an Amazing professor. He is smart, very knowledgeable, understanding, caring and easy to talk to. He gives manageable assignments and his tests are straight forward. Just attend lectures, study the power points he posts online and you will definitely get an A. Hunter College is lucky to have him!!!!
Literally the best Psych professor I've ever had. Took him for Psych 170 and Social Psych. Relates his personal experiences with the lecture which helped a lot of people understood the material easily. Definitely would take him again, wish he taught 300 level courses !
Wow he is awesome. He presents his lectures so well organized, a cornucopia of fantastic knowledge on the subject of women's Psych & feminism as well as gender issues in the world. I could listen to him talk all day, his humor and intelligence is unique. A very honest, caring person who shares real life events to help you see & understand more.
I adore him and his informative lecture. No textbooks. Only his funny and colorful lecture. He's a very easy grader. It's easy A if you do all your assignments as best as you can. He's lenient also. His tests are short answers, but just remember the important facts, and like I said, EASY A
Hunter is an amazing lecturer and an awesome person. His rubric is crystal clear and anyone would be lucky to have him for the classes that he teaches, it was always a pleasure coming to his classes.
Professor Kincaid was very involved and present during class, gave incredible lectures and brought a lot of information not given in the textbook. Assigned some papers that required some observations of various environments, tests were HEAVILY based on lectures, so definitely should attend, but they are entertaining so you'll want to.
Professor Hunter Kincaid has been by far my favorite professor since I've been at Hunter College and any other college. He is extremely intelligent, open minded, charismatic and professional. I am taking another class with him this semester and I recommend everyone to take his courses. Class with him, one actually learns and wants to attend.
He is a great professor. He is very clear on his lectures, he has 3 exam short answers, some reading response and a paper due at the end of semester. Attendance is not mandatory but it helps to listen to lecture. I really recommend this professor. oh and he is funny, you will be engaged in lecture.
I would definitely take any of his classes again. Professor Kincaid is very approachable and a good listener which is hard to come by. Very respectful to others. Engages your brain into thinking about any topic in a new way without overlooking its importance.
Take him! Beeeeest ever!
Words can't describe my love for him. I really wish he could teach every subject at Hunter. If you don't take him before graduating you're missing out. I took him twice already. He opened up my eyes to issues going on in the world. He's the nicest person ever, doesn't give a lot of work, and you take a lot home with you. Simply amazing.
He is by far the most amazing professor I have ever come across and probably will ever have. He is incredibly articulate, smart, interesting, hilarious, kind, understanding, knowledgable. I can't express my love for him enough. You can talk to him about anything. Not a hard grader, and makes learning fun. You will be excited to go to class. DO IT!!
The best professor I ever had at Hunter. 3hr winter class and time just flew by. Lectures are interesting and funny and you take out a lot more than what you go in with. He's very flexible and willing to help students before a deadline approaches. 1 midterm, 1 final, 1 paper, no textbook and attendance isn't taken. All the exams had study guides.
I would highly recommend this professor. He is very clear and very open with his students
Take him if you're interested in learning more about the human sexuality and want an easy class. 3 exams 4-5 reading response and a research paper due end of the semester
He's a great professor. He gives 2 exams and a final, all of which are short-answer questions - NO multiple choice. However, not a bad thing since you will (1) learn more from the material and (2) have more wiggle room to defend your answer. Gives reading responses and a research paper. He makes the class interesting and I would take again!
This guy is the best! He was super inspirational, lectures are clear and he's super nice. Loved his class! No need for a textbook and he makes everything easy to understand
You will be the regret of not take his class! He is the best professor ever! His lectures are super interesting. A few reading responses, three exams, one final paper, that's all. He gives out study guide which same as the exam. Take Him!! Esay A!!!!
I love him and his class! Best professor ever! Take him! Easy A!:)
He is an amazing professor! He gives study guide that contains all the questions that will be on the test. He is very funny and the class is interesting
prof Kincaid is my favorite professor at hunter, and possibly my favorite prof ever (and i've been to three different schools, lol). He's so funny and engaging, and you can tell he's actually engaged with the subject. I really can't say enough good things! I wish the CUNYFIRST website would tell me which classes he's teaching next semester.
Professor Kincaid is by far the most amazing professor in Hunter. I've taken 2 classes with him and they have been amazing. Attendance is important because although he doesn't keep track of who shows up, he explains the lecture amazingly.
SO HE HAS A HIGH RATING FOR A REASON. HE IS A GREAT TEACHER AND HAS GREAT STYLE WHICH IS MADE UP OF SENSE OF HUMOR AND HONESTY. HIS SLIDES WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH AND HELP YOU RETAIN INFORMATION. I TOOK HIS CLASS AT 7PM SO DONT STRAY AWAY WITH THE TIME HE IS AVAILABLE.
Such an amazing professor. He is funny, colorful, and explains everything very clearly. It is actually a pleasure to go to class.
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. He is the absolute best professor I've ever had in college. He's down to earth, relatable, and actually knows how to teach. He organizes his lectures coherently and always adds a personal touch, something that is lacking in the majority of professors. He tells you what you need to know for the test so you can study properly.
easy and very informative class!
T.H.E B.E.S.T
He is not only a good professor, but a great human being. You are more likely to be a better person through his teachings.
He is the best out there. HIs lectures are truly inspiring.
The best professor I have ever taken. Taking his classes will change your perception, for good.
I HIGHLY recommend professor Kincaid. So caring and hilarious! I honestly i wish i could take more classes with him. Take him you won't regret it!
Hands down the best professor at hunter college, he cares about his students doing well, he will help you if you come to him in advance, his classes are fun and engaging, his tests are extremely fair, and just in general an amazing class. He will be your favorite class of the semester i promise.
I don't rate teachers but when I got on here I was not surprised to see that this is the top professor in the school. His lectures are amazing and you learn so much. Tests really do test you on the material but he gives such good lectures that you won't have trouble on the tests at all. Take this class if you can, for sure!
you would not regret taking him. He make you want to learn. he really knows he's stuff.
He's a great professor, he makes his lessons so easy to understand and you'll hate when it's time for class to be over. His classes are amazing and educational.
Absolutely fantastic professor, I loved his class so much Im taking psych 170 just to have him as a professor again. You wont regret taking this class if you do, hes a phenomenal professor, hilarious and insanely intelligent, an inspiration.
Attendance is not required and no textbook, but you have to read weekly articles for reading responses and exams. 7 one-page reading responses, 2 four-five page essays, a midterm and a final. Exams are 10 short answers, and study guides are provided. Good lectures, easy grader.
Amazing AMAZINGGGGGGG professor. I'm taking another class of his this semester. Legit, just take him. Don't doubt it at all
The Greatest of All Time.
He was actually one of my favorite psych professors. He's really funny and teaches well. I don't regret taking this class even though it was just for the core requirements! I would definitely say read the readings that he has assigned because they are always on the exams. Besides that I had no real problems in this class.
Very good psych prof. I would highly recommend
I truly loved his class. The way he discusses things beyond the power point makes me really pay attention in his class out of my own volition. I barely studied for exams and got A+s not because the exams are particularly easy, but because it is sooo easy to remember his lectures. The way he speaks really helps with remembering things. Love it!
Believe the hype. Hunter is AMAZING. The class consists of 3 exams which he gives VERY clear study guides for, 1 research paper which you can choose whatever topic you want as long as it's related to human sexuality and weekly responses that are EXTREMELY simple. He is A+, hunty. Do recommend.
He's really a great guy, you never get bored with him since he makes the lessons interesting and interactive. He is also very easy to talk to since he doesn't put off the usual aura of superiority that some teachers give off. Also he is very easy on the eyes which can be a plus.
He is a great professor with a great sense of humor! I would take this class over in a heart beat :)
He is perhaps the best psych professor I had at hunter. 3 midterms which he gives u a study guide for, reading response which is do/dont scenario and final paper which is supereasy. He is humorous as we and very knowledgeable as well
Hands down the best prof at Hunter! His exams come straight from his lectures and he gives you a review sheet with everything you'll be tested on so you know exactly what to expect on the exams. You also have 1 pg reading responses due about every other week and a 4-5 pg final research paper (both graded leniently). Absolutely loved him! Take him!!
The BEST professor at Hunter!!! He is knowledgeable and lectures in a way that is entertaining and interesting for all.. If you are a psych major, I recommend taking him at least once. Love that he does not make students buy these expensive textbooks, he understands the struggle and really want everyone to succeed!
Professor Kincaid is by one of the best professors/teachers that I have ever had in my life. Hes extremely down to earth, cool, smart and understanding. His lectures are amazingly informative and he helps in which ever way possible, in order to make sure that his students succeed. 100% recommend this class, he is amazing.
Hunter is an amazing lecturer. He creates his own pp slides, always open minded, and answers questions thoroughly. Caring and will help you every step of the way. Made my summer class easy with simply pass/fail 1 pg responses, 2 exams based entirely on each review sheet, and a 4-5 pg paper on any topic. Great class to add to ease up a hard semester
THE best professor I've had BUT you will have to work hard for that A/A+. All his exams are written, not multiple choice so you really have to make sure you understand the material instead of simply memorizing it. Readings are sooo important. If you skip out on reading, you won't get higher than an 80 on the exams.
Hunter is the BEST professor I took so far here. He makes up for all the crappy ones here. His lectures are clear and easy to understand, you HAVE to do the readings because their on the exam and doing to summaries also determines if you get a B or an A in the course. You have to put in work, but he's great honestly not a very difficult course.
Heaven sent. The perfect teacher. A lot of reading but its back by wisdom and he wants you to do well in life. Read and Learn folks !
Hunter Kincaid's vibrant and electric personality is one of the best of all of Hunter College's personnel. He does not assign textbook as he posts his readings on Blackboard in order to save students money, and these readings are far from boring. His test are simple, straight from his lecture and slides. Easy A class so long as you do your work.
He's one of the best professors to ever walk through this college. You are not a Hunter student without taking professor kincaid. Picture perfect professor. There is a lot of reading and his exams require you to actually know your stuff but coming from a person that never reads/studies and passed his class shows how great of a lecturer he is.
Hands down the best professor in Hunter College. He was hilarious and made going to lectures painless. He went over every topic with precision and was extremely informative. Professor Kincaid gives amazing review sheets that cover everything that will show up on his exams, so if you study you should get an A. TAKE HIM!
Hes amazing. Take him ! Don't graduate Hunter without witnessing one of his courses.
One of the best psych professors. makes the class super fun and engaging. 3 exams, 3 reading responses and one final essay at the end of the class. If you study his power points and come to class you'll get an A. Overall, highly recommend his class!!
He is a GODSEND! Please take this professor, you'll love him, he has such a great personality! All tests are short response, but totally easy because he basically gives you the questions beforehand in his study-guides. Such an enjoyable class, just study for the tests and do the final paper!
The most amazing professor I have ever taken! He is so funny and so genuine and passionate about this that you forget this class is over a hour long in a lecture room. I have never paid for attention to lecture in my life and that is all because of him and how interesting and un he wants the lectures. Easy class and you learn A LOT!
Hunter is amazing, I am SO happy I took his psych 220 class! He's funny, makes his lectures interesting, and is very nice to work with in case you have questions on the homework, lecture, or exams. Highly recommend taking him.
You will not regret taking him, he's so lively and bubbly. His class is my first class of the day and his bubbly self always makes my day. Amazing professor, you won't regret taking him.
One of the best professors at, not only the department, but at Hunter. He is a true gem! Always willing to help students, give extensions on reading responses (which don't take that long to do regardless), and his exams are straight forward-- straight from the lecture. There is a research paper at the end, but he guides you through it. Adore him.
He is an AMAZING professor!! Would take any class with him, makes the class fun and is extremely funny. Can tell he really enjoys teaching the subject, one of the best professors at Hunter hands down!
He is very funny and an excellent professor. He gets sick quite often and cancels class a few times. His exams are very straight forward, from the lectures and reading assignments. They are 10 short response questions however he provides a study guide beforehand so you know what to study.
He is an amazing teacher! He gives short answer exams but he always provides a review sheet. He also wants 4 article response essays and one 5 page paper at the end of the semester but he makes it as simple as possible to try and provide students with opportunities to have a lot of grades.
This class requires a bit of writing but it's not terrible. His exams are so perfectly explained in the study guides so they're a breeze. He's an amazing lecturer and often equates things back to himself which makes him so relatable. It was so cool to have him as a professor and I find myself using a lot of what we learned in my day to day
ugh his papers are so dreadful!!!!!
I wish I had taken his other classes before graduating because this professor was THE bomb. He always came in prepared with lecture slides that kept your interest, always went over any hard concepts, and had a great sense of humor. If you are looking for a great time, I definitely recommend his class. You will 100% not regret it!
Professor Kincaid was such an amazing professor. He made his lectures so engaging and fun even in an auditorium with hundreds of students. Clear grading criteria so pass your exams and reading responses and youre fine.
An amazing professor who is passionate about what he teaches! Once made all of us (100 kids) laugh. He usually puts up the slides and readings on BB to save money and so that you can catch up in case you were not in class (attendance is not mandatory, BTW). The only downside is that the exams are short answer. Great professor, highly recommend.
Literally went to about 3 lectures this semester and will be getting an A+. This class is very easy as long as you complete the review sheets (everything is on the ppts). Make sure to skim the readings beforehand since there will usually be 2 questions on the exam. 5 pg paper is due at the end of the term and based on topic of your choice. Easy A.
Professor Kincaid is one of the best professors at Hunter by far. He's incredibly passionate about the subjects that he teaches and he cares more about making sure that we leave with some knowledge and perspective rather than drilling useless information into our heads. That being said, this class is straightforward. Easy and enjoyable A.
Probably the best professor at Hunter. Makes his lectures so fun and engaging. 3 exams, one final essay (5-6 pages) and 3 reading responses, each a page or two. Totally doable, an easy A if you go over his power points and do the study guides.
Best professor ever! Lectures in my other classes can be boring but his lectures were so interesting and funny! I learned so much from this man and would def take him again!
He is an amazing professor, I can guarantee you won't regret picking him. Im a computer science major, so i was only fulfilling a requirement, but he makes the material interesting. His class is important and it can be helpful for learning to lead a healthy sexually active life. He is incredibly fair, and funny too. I took his class during summer.
This is one of the best professor I've ever had .. his lectures are amazing and clear. Learned so much from all his classes
He's so engaging and interesting to listen to. Taking his class helped me grow academically and personally. He is so kind and encouraging. One of Hunter College's best- would take him again any day. He's a professor you would love to have as a friend. I took his Winter course and he assigned a few online homeworks and a final paper.
i wish more professors were like him, you could tell he loves his field of study , not a day were he dosent make us laugh extremely easy exams in you pay attention do not leave the readings for last other than that best engaging class out there
Took him at Pratt, loved it. Was the perfect way to end my week. His lectures are actually interesting and hes a grad student who Understands. Explains concepts with interesting stories and his tests are literally 30 minutes word for word off the study guide - he doesnt want us to be surprised. Dont have to show up every time but youll want to
Absolutely phenomenal. Study guides are specific: explains exactly what he wants, how he wants it. Attendance isnt required, but youll love going to class. Hes super objective and will politely answer any questions you have. Hilarious. A few reading responses, lenient grading, and provides great feedback. Pay attention and youll get an easy A.
Hunter is a great professor, easy A if you show up to class no textbook he give stake home final and midterm and some reading responses as homework. Makes the topic very interesting he is relatable and caring. Great teacher
BLESS THIS MAN! Took him for winter & he is such a gem! One of the best at Hunter. Hilarious lectures & you actually learn from him by just showing up to lecture and listening. Take home midterm + final, 1 review paper, 4 reading responses. MUST TAKE!
Professor Kincaid is by far the best professor Ive had at Hunter College. His lectures are interesting and very informative. Loved this class. Definitely recommend taking him.
excellent professor
Hunter Kincaid is literally the epitome of an amazing Professor. Hes such an incredible Professor that its hard to even put it into words - hes just absolutely incredible. Every single student in the class absolutely loves him. It is literally not possible to find a better Professor, he is the absolute best and most amazing Prof you can find.
He is a solid instructor that enjoys incorporating his life experiences into his lectures. Attendance is not mandatory, but you should attend his class to ace his exams. Read all the articles on Blackboard and be able to answer the questions on his study guides because they will definitely be on the exams.
Hunter Kincaid is the best professor at Hunter and probably the entire world. Dont graduate from Hunter without taking him, if you already graduated and didnt take him just throw out your degree and come back
So inspiring, funny and knowledgable! If you skipping his amazing class wyd? You learn so much, 3 exams (no MC yay), a review paper and 4 reading responses. He creates such a open environment no one feels like theyre alone or left out. Really cares about students and so helpful during office hours, very easy on the eyes too!
Honestly class was super easy and attendance is not mandatory. Don't plan on disputing grade, you won't get good feedback
human sexuality is the best class and if you take it with him youre doing amazing sweetie. Hes such a inspiring professor, hes done a lot of work in his life and continues to work hard. hes so passionate about the subject and cares a lot. theres no judgement zone and I wish every professor had his heart. 3 exams, a review paper and some responses!
Hunter college got lucky getting a gem like him. YAS hunty.
Best professor ever. I wish I can take all my classes with him. I really miss his class.
Amazing professor with very interesting lectures that will keep you focused, Best class I've taken at hunter so far.
He's really fun and super sweet as a professor. I never felt stressed about the class once and his lectures are interesting enough to keep me awake, even though it was an 8 am class.
Hunter College is lucky to have this professor. You can tell he is passionate about what he teaches and it shows. Its easy to do well in this class if you put in the work. Tests are short answer and you are also tested on the assigned readings. As long as you go to class, do the study guides and read the material, you are going to do well.
Professor Kincaid is one of the best professors at Hunter. His class is interesting and easy.
he's very funny and always keeps the class interesting. overall pay attention, do the study guides and readings and it'll be an easy A
Hunter is a great professor. He is really destined to be a professor, always comes into the lecture hall with a smile and is ready to start teaching. He really made the class fun and easy. A great buffer class if you are a science major like me.
He makes lectures really fun by inserting humor but while also giving so much information. He's also really understanding so if anything, just speak to him. A very knowledgeable professor!
THIS MAN IS A GODSEND. I took him for a winter session, and it was the best decision i made. He makes lectures fun, and is hilarious. PLEASE TAKE HIM WHEN YOU HAVE THE CHANCE TO.
Everyone is right, you're in great hands. I was nervous about long lectures for a winter semester but they were always engaging and informative with a good dose of humor thrown in. Would love to take him again!
VERY interesting lectures, normally not much homework (except typing this during Covid-19 outbreak) so there are reading responses. He posts all powerpoint slides inadvance. Exams, you need to know the readings as well as lecture topics. All exams are 10 questions handwritten.
KING i love him he is so understanding. all tests are short answer but its only 10 questions and literally if you just pay attention you're good. and he's so funny and nice and understanding please take him!!
I love him. I took this class 2 years ago and still remember the material and reference it around friends. My only regret is not taking more classes with him before graduating. Do yourself a favor and take this class!
He is one of the best professors I have ever taken. He is so caring, understanding, and helpful. If you need help with something and approach him he will do his best to help you.
if u go to hunter and u don't have professor Kincaid at least once u wasted ur time lmao TAKE HIS CLASS HE'S A GEM
One of the best and understandable professor. Not a tough grader, most of the students get As and Bs. You will definitely learn something in this class.
I honestly have never had such a caring professor in my entire experience in university. Very accommodating and can be a good ear if you have any issues. Please read the articles I'm begging you.
One of THE BEST professors at Hunter. He is a gem and hilarious! His lectures very relatable and easy to understand. He assigns readings (10-40 pgs) and basic questions for hw every other week. 1 midterm, 1 final & one 5 pg research paper. exams are short answer but are relatively easy if you attend the lectures and read the articles. TAKE HIM!!!
An AMAZING professor! He was really understanding with late work during this pandemic. His lectures were interesting and even though attendance wasn't really mandatory and I'm not a fan of big lectures, I still showed up. His exams were easy, just review slides/go to lecture. He's an easy grader, I recommend taking him for sure!
He is EXTRAORDINARY, he is funny and completely honest with his lectures; very engaged with each topic and lets the class also engage in conversation. He answers any questions you may have and he is very understanding when it comes to grading and turning in work. I loved having class with him.
This is hands down the best professor at Hunter. He is a real gem. His lectures are always super interesting, very educational always loved going to his class. You can really tell he loves what he does. His class is relatively easy and always read his assigned readings. He gives 3 tests one essay and sometimes throws in a reading response for hw.
Kincaid is one of the most inspirational professors in Hunter and is an absolute gem. You will learn so much from his class because of how open he is to discussion. It's pretty hard not to get an A in his class.
This is my second time taking him, and I love his class formats! Even online, his lectures are still very engaging. No live lectures, all content is accessible at any time, and grading criteria is very clear. Midterm and final exams are open response but easy and we have a lot of time to complete them. Did well in the class and learned a lot!
He's honestly the best professor I've had so far, he always found a way to make his lectures entertaining but still on task. His tests were fair, he always gave hints on what topics to look out for, as long as you do the readings and attend lecture this class will be easy. He also gives a lot of creative freedom with papers, just use proper sources
Take his class! Prof. Kincaid is a really down to Earth kind of guy. Even with virtual learning, his lectures remain engaging and fun. Assignments are light, so you don't have to worry about having too much on your plate throughout the week. Also, he makes sure to provide you with enough study material (ppts) so you can ace his exams!
Hunter was great! He utilized the most out of our class time and really made the lectures interesting. He also gave me great advice and suggestions for a project outside of class but still related to Gender. He's great!
Such an awesome and caring professor! I took his class online asynchornous and I actually watched his lectures! Tests were easy and he was a gem.
Out of all the professors, he is the best. Makes lectures fun and engaging. Readings and workloads are manageable and exams are extremely fair.
I took this class online, and he just released lecture videos each week. But I could tell how passionate and funny his personality was!!! He's super bubbly and very informative. We just had 2 exams and a final, which are each not cumulative and based on the lectures and readings. Thus, it's good to take good notes on the lectures.
Kincaid is a real gem, take this class of you want to see a prof teach something they are passionate about. In the class you have about 3-4 reading responses based of peer revired journals, three exams : 10 questions, written response, and a review paper (I did mine in two days and got full credit), If you take time to put the work in its an easy A
Professor Kincaid's class is rather easy if you read the assigned texts and study his lecture slides. The class itself is very inspiring and you really learn a lot about human sexuality. I like the fact that Professor Kincaid breaks things down to make confusing topics more understanding.
hey yall, so he's mad easy bro just do the reading responses literally, could write anything and for them, and for the essay he's not a tough grader he just wants to see you tried. Tests answers are all on the slides he provides.
He was such an amazing professor, definitely one of my fav classes. The class was very engaging and I genuinely learned a lot about my self through this class. A very passionate professor that makes the class enjoyable and palatable. Not hard at all, just do the assigned work and watch the lectures. It's worth it & it's not a lot of work.
loveeeeeed him. he's so caring and understanding. the class is so interesting
He is an awesome professor! I would take him again because he makes class very engaging. He really cares for his students and is very considerate.
He is relatable, caring, and respectful to where you want to just show up for class and do his work. His personality allows people to feel comfortable and also just enough presence as a "teacher" or professor to where you know what's expected and do work. But really light on the grades, requirements, but lots of readings. But he's the best!
This guy is a pure angel at heart! He has the most coolest lectures ever. It feels like taking a sex ed class and health class all in one shot and its super easy and fun. All he cares about is effort and understanding the class. Overall its an easy A.
Take this Professor! He is amazing. The best approach to teach students. He trusts you, wants to make sure you understand the material, welcomes every opinion. There are several simple reading responses throughout the semester, exams are easy if you read and watch lectures. His lectures are so fun, he took time to record videos for all of them.
Mr. Kincaid is super chill - he lets you off class early and dosen't give too much homework. There's a good amount of reading to go through for assignments but if you skim, it'll be fine. His lectures are interesting and he's really understanding. If you ask him for extensions, he'll give them and isn't too strict abt attendance. Overall - great.
This guy is honestly the best professor in the whole wide world. He truly deserves an Emmy award and a trophy. Goes above and behind in his notes and lectures. he actually has a passion for teaching and gives us inspiration unlike most professors. Very chill dude. He is a diamond and gem at heart. An angel from the sky - take him!!!
He challenges you to write your papers based on science as opposed to your opinions. Cool guy though keep it real with him and he'll help as much as he can
He cares for his students and understands our struggles. I had an issue turning in the final paper for personal reasons , but he still gave me full credit. Let him know in advance if you need extra time with anything and I'm pretty sure he will grant you the extra time. Awesome professor!
He so fineeee. And literally the best. thats all I gotta say
Montana lost a good one when he moved to nyc. But hes the best and funny asf. Lectures are interesting and wont put you to sleep :)
TAKE. HIS. CLASS. 100% one of the best professors at Pratt. His lectures are so interesting, the time passes very quickly. Assignments are extremely reasonable and graded very fairly. If you show up and do the work, you'll definitely get a good grade. Also just such an insanely sweet person and makes you want to do well!
He is HILARIOUS and very chill. No need for participation really just do your hw. 3 hours lectures can be a bit heavy but you can tell he really knows and enjoys what he is talking about and uses a lot of examples from his own experiences. Hw readings are a bit difficult to understand but manageable. Very lenient grader, easy to have a good grade.
One of my favorite classes taken!
Professor Kincaid is the best! Took his Psych 170 class last semester and I still use his lectures and readings assigned! Assignments and grading were very clear, and he was available to chat via email about assignments etc. I took this class online but would have loved it in person! Long lectures but always entertaining and easy to follow.
best prof from this school and he genuinely cares for his students and their thoughts. montana lost a real one fr
MUST TAKE THIS PROFESSOR! He is the best professor in all of Hunter College. All his papers besides the final are pass or fail. There are only a couple of one-page responses that the answers could be found based on the readings. He gives extra credit most of the time and is very caring to his students. He understands every college students' pain.
Just take him dude. Took him in winter 2021 and he probably is the BEST professor at Hunter. Do his work seriously and you won't be disappointed. His lectures are very interesting and you won't get bored. He's so chill and an understanding guy. He's pretty humorous and doesn't make the class boring.
Hilarious, kind, super reasonable expectations. If you really know everything that's on the study guide you can get a 100 on every exam. The final paper took some time, but he was very lenient with grading it. The readings can be quite long but they are all super interesting! I would cram the night before and read like 100+ pages but still did well
Best professor ever. There was never a boring lecture and all of his exams and papers were easy as long you did the readings and kept up with the lectures. He was understanding and very funny and kind. If you ever need to take this class make sure you take it with professor Kincaid.
an amazing human, a fantastic professor, very understanding, all students love him, if you read this professor I really wish you the best of luck, thank you for making my senior year easy, and I learned so much from you.
Prof Kincaid is literally the best-- so entertaining, funny, and chill
Prof. Kincaid is one of the best professors at Hunter. His lectures are interesting and informative. He makes sure that his students are protected inside and outside of class. His tests are easy as long you keep up with the work.
He's an absolutely amazing professor, my favorite by far! His class is very manageable and the topics of the course are quite interesting, especially the way he teaches it. The material for the exams are covered through the slides and are straightforward as long as you pay attention and keep up with the readings. Will definitely enjoy this class!
he's an absolute doll (super funny, makes his slides and lectures easy to understand, and applies real world scenarios). definitely one of the best professors at hunter. i enjoyed his class a lot
WE NEED MORE LIKE HIM !!! he is the best professor I ever had. The lectures are amazing, you don't want to miss them. He is very understanding, and helpful. Study the questions he gives, those will be exactly on the test, you will get 100! Don't worry about this class at all, Best class I ever had in hunter. TAKE HIM. I will use his slides later.
Professor Kincaid was absolutely lovely, i took him during the summer for human sexuality and it was a breeze. The content is easy as long as you PAY ATTENTION and READ. there are 3 exams and a paper honestly a fun and interesting class
love him! really just wants to see everyone succeed in his class and mostly grades on completion and not correctness. if theres one prof u need to experience in your time at hunter college, it's him
He's so so good! I took him in summer and absolutely loved his class. He's a great lecturer and makes things very easy for you. Provides a test guide and all questions come from there--make sure you memorize the answers cause it's all written but it's super easy! There's only 1 paper we had to do.
At the moment I am still taking this course so my opinion is very raw and unfiltered since I have not received a final grade yet. Professor Kincaid is one of the best, if not, the best professor Hunter College has to offer. Not only is he very knowledgeable about Social psychology, but he is also very understanding and his classes are really fun.
Taken FA21, if you are going to take a psych class, especially relating to gender/sex, take Hunter. The lectures were informative and class time was utilized very well. Hunter is such an amazing professor and is a great person. We had tons of creative freedom,especially for our final paper. I wrote mine on the attraction to fictional characters.
TAKE HIS CLASS! The course overall was very easy-going, only 2 exams and 1 research paper. Exams are extremely easy if you study ahead of time. Kincaid is truly one of the best professors at Hunter. His lectures were amazing and interesting, never failed to make me bored! Highly recommend taking any of his psychology courses! :)
100% recommend this professor. He is super chill and makes lectures enjoyable. His exams are easy and straightforward as long as you do/study the review sheet he gives out. Took him for psych 170 and back for his psych 230 class!
Best professor ever, made me hate montana. And as we all should!!
Good lecturer. He's passionate and understands the stuff he teaches. You could get a good grade by literally writing anything on his tests/essays as long as you sound like you know whats happening. I didn't want to write 2 essays for class along with homework and 2 exams but I spent a few hours writing some bs on the paper and got full points.
Professor Kincaid is literally the best! His class consists of 2 exams and 1 paper. He assigns reading responses once in a while, which are pass/fail. As long as you try and put it the effort, it is easy points. He is extremely easy going and hilarious! You will not regret taking his class, I promise. You all are in good hands :)
Hunter is an AMAZING professor. He really knows what he is teaching, and you can tell he enjoys it. There are a couple writing responses (1.5-2 pages), 2 tests and 1 paper for this course. He gives study guides for the tests which are exactly the same, so know your stuff bc it's short answer. We love Hunter and hate Montana in this house (if ykyk).
Took two class with this professor (human sexuality and sex ed policy) and he was amazing both times. Lectures are amazing, reading responses are required throughout the semester, but pretty straightforward. He definitely cares about all his students and wants to see them make big chances in the world! Take his class, he will not disappoint.
By far one of my favorite professors here at Hunter! His lectures are not only interesting but pretty straightforward and his assignments are pretty easy. Weekly reading assignments, three take-home exams, and one final presentation are the things he would be assigning for this class
JUST TAKE HIM. LITERALLY. this class is heavy on the materials but he makes every lecture very interesting. U will have a few reading responses, 2 exams, and a final paper for this class. But I assure you, it's not difficult. on the exam, the study guide RLLY RLLY helps. he is very hilarious. If u are thinking of taking this class, JUST DO IT!
Literally the best professor ever. Attendance is not mandatory, but he makes you want to attend every single class, like seriously I wouldn't lie to you guys. His lectures are always so interesting, and he makes the class so engaging!! This class is the most enjoyable experience I've had at Hunter College.
Just take him! He is very nice professor and very generous about grading! As long as you do the work, you can get a A!!!! There is also a lot of fun at his classes. I did not feel bored as class begin at 7:00PM!!!!!
As the other ratings said, Prof. Kincaid is literally THE BEST! He's also by far probably the most well-known professor at Hunter. He only assigns 2 exams - midterm and final - with 10 FRQ, 1 paper, and 4 mini-response questions that were P/NC. Guarantee A if you do the work, which isn't hard. Take him if you can - you're one of the lucky ones!!!
Dr. Hunter is a cutie and a whole vibe! His class consisted of 5 reading responses, a midterm exam, a final exam, and a 5-page peer review paper. All reading materials were provided on the first day of class! I strongly recommend you read all the materials provided and take notes during lecture - will for sure be on the exam/final!
Very understanding and generous professor. His lectures are always entertaining and so are his jokes. The only thing I'm not content with is that he responds to emails and grade assignments late. Otherwise, I recommend taking him.
Professor Kincaid is excellent. Second time taking a class with him. Summer Class is graded by 2 exams, 5 reading responses (2 pages long each), and one final paper. Very clear instructions. Make sure to do all your readings and manage your work, as it can be a lot. Would absolutely recommend it.
LOVEEEE Prof Kincaid!!!! His lectures were so informative and literally hilarious. I had this class at night when everyone was tired but still he was able to make everyone laugh and be involved in the class. I wish I was a psych major solely to take more of his classes! 1000/10 would recommend!!
Lots of discussion boards, papers, but really incredible. he's super fun, super open to talking about topics people usually shy away from. It is a lot of reading and a bit of writing, but it's very enjoyable. Took him during the winter sem so it was online.
The best professor at Hunter. He is super funny, his class is fun and engaging, it was a pleasure having him as a professor. The workload was also tolerable. A few papers for different lectures, a midterm paper, a final paper, a midterm exam, and a final exam. It's easy as long as you put effort in and show up for class.
Best professor you could ever have in hunter. He is super funny and accessible outside of class. He also connects theory with real life situations which makes class more interesting and enjoyable. Take him you will not regret it.
Don't usually write these reviews, but this professor makes it possible for you to get an A in the class. Like everyone mentions, as long as you're in class, submit your work and are present it'll be an easy A. Very interesting lectures and readings as well.
Professor Kincaid makes his lectures interesting and enjoyable. Only gave out 2 exams, a midterm and a final which are easy to do if you come to class and take notes. A few reading responses and a final review paper. He's open to helping you but you need to make an effort in doing the work which is very straight forward. Overall, great professor!
Took him online during the winter session and he's insanely great. He made me super interested in psychology and always found a way to connect lessons to realistic scenarios to help us understand concepts. Many readings, but taking notes during lecture is most helpful for exams. Not much hw either. 10/10 recommend !!! you won't regret it
great professor. Absolutely loved the lecture, makes it very interesting. Exams are a breeze as long as u revise on time .
I never took his class but before my CS lecture I would always drop by the lecture room earlier and attend his lectures informally. I ended up learning a lot about human sexuality. Funny man.
An AMAZING Professor!! Super manageable class if you put in your part. Only 2 exams (midterm&final), with some assigned reading responses. He ends the semester with a research essay with your desired topic of interest based on his lectures. The readings assigned are also interesting. Throughout lectures, he is funny, outgoing, and super chill.
LOVE HUNTER!!! Don't even second guess your schedule- TAKE HIM!!!! Literally my fav professor ever and will make sure you succeed in his class.
literally the best professor i have taken in 3 years at hunter college. his lectures are informative and interesting and he's very funny. actually made me eager to come to class. He has 2 exams as well as weekly 2 pg responses to research articles and a literature review due at the end of the semester. very manageable and overall great class
took him for summer session and class only consisted of 6 reading responses (2pgs), 2 exams, and a final paper. his lectures are so informative and funny at the same time you won't get bored at all!! exam questions are pulled from the review sheet and reading responses are pass/no-credit, so you just have to do the work and pay attention!
One of the better professors at Hunter. His lectures are very interesting + the assignments are straightforward. 6 1.5 pg reading responses based on different readings; 1 midterm; 1 final; 5 pg final paper. A lot of reading. exams are only short response but the lecture slides help a lot.
AMAZING PROFESSOR... so caring, respectful and funny. His work is so clear to follow. Just do the assignment and pay attention.
take him!!!
Professor Kincaid makes this class super engaging and fun, even at night! The workload is manageable - just a few exams and reading responses. unstuckstudy ai was a huge help for study prep. Definitely take this class if you can!
best prof ever!!! I wish he taught every psychology class, he's the best
he's easy!! you'll get an A if you do your readings. and he's so cute. you can talk to him if you have a problem
Super nice professor and gives a manageable amount of work. his hws and testing is simple as long as you study the material, and he gives a guideline for his tests which are super helpful. he loves to teach and it shows. would totally recommend this class.
Take this professor he responds to emails , generous with grading, gives study guides out for his exams and they reflect what's going to be on each one. 10/10
One of the best professors. Really funny and makes lectures very interesting. I would always look forward to his class and learned so many interesting things here. Exams are super easy as long as you follow the review. Participation does not really matter. No group works/projects.
Do not hesitate even for a second to take him, even if you have to change your whole schedule DO IT. He is worth everything. He's the best professor I've ever had at hunter and his class is super easy. Attendance isn't mandatory, two exams which he gives the exact questions for, and a final paper which he is super lenient with. Easy A, take him!
My one issue was that I lost I think a few more points than I deserved to lose for basically getting one word, not even 'wrong', but one word on the essay that could have been slightly better. Exams are 10 short essays and you have to memorize a lot of stuff in preparation for them and losing more than one point for something so minor felt unfair.
I met Professor Kincaid when I started to enroll in Psychology of Human Sexuality-PSYCH 170 class for summer term of 2025. I have Professor Kincaid this semester for Sex Education Policy class. I want to express that I had an incredible experience having Professor Kincaid and he's my role model because he provided me the academic support.
