He's a nice guy, He's kind of interesting. It's hard to get an A because he grades on a point system. He does give extra credit and he's just a sweet funny guy.
He is the BEST professor EVER!!!! Pay attention in class, take notes, and do the reading and you will get a good grade. He gives extra credit and makes the class really intresting. Ive tooken several classes with him and never gotten lower than an A. He is the reason im a sociology major. HIGHLY RECOMMENEDED!!!!
A nice, easygoing guy. However, I felt that he's too nice. He let multiple classmates go off in tangents about off topic or anecdotal chit chat that hindered the class from getting the necessary information taught for that class period. Aside from that, his methods and curriculum were fine. Loves to discuss opinions.
He is nice, his lectures are actually interesting and he gives his students a lot of extra credit opportunities. Take him :)
Best teacher I have ever had. Taught clearly and gave me a new perspective on how I look at the world. A MUST TAKE CLASS AT PIERCE. You need to go to class every day because the power points do not go online, and you need to READ and STUDY if you want a good grade. I am majoring in sociology because of him. Highly recommended!
Show up to class everyday. Pay attention, write down the Power Point slides BUT also write down what he says. Skim through the reading. Review your notes now and then. IF you do that, tests will be easy. He does a review the day before a test. Gives out extra credit. Nice, funny, & honest guy. He'll make you look at things in another perspective.
Do not purchase the book unless you want to waste money. You will never use the book. Took him years ago at Valley College - He was way better before for SOC 11! Now he is rood and got way more tough, no joke. He literally changed his ways of teaching at Pierce. The fact that he got a full time position changed him. Sad because he WAS the best.
Soc 002. Awsome teacher! Plays music when you walk into class based on the days lecture.. Tells a lot of stories, makes class interesting, Every single one of his slides are in the book word for word! Not a breeze by class though! know the material! Only tests are the Midterm & Final. Good guy.. cute too. :]
highly reccomended! great teacher, ended up getting an A. a few tests, lots of extra credit, and a research paper which was pretty easy if you tried. take him...
best professor ever! i only stayed at pierce because of him. he inspired me to major in sociology. he's a motivator. he has notes on powerpoint, which messes some students up. his tests are easy if you go to class and listen to his lecture. he's helpful and gives a lot of opportunities for extra credit.
Greatest professor I've had in my 21/2 years as a college student. Very inspirational, you can learn a lot from him(my mind was bombarded with concepts), and he makes the subject even more interesting than what it already is. We had only 2 exams and an easy 2-3 pg paper. As far as the book goes just memorize the key terms. A guaranteed B if you try
Awesome teacher! He's funny and smart and you'll only need the book to review for the exams. If you take meticulous notes, you won't need it at all. I actually looked forward to going to his class.
Overall amazing teacher, explains the material very well. Just pay attention write the notes neatly & key words he tells you! He makes the subject interesting you will never be bored .You can pass his class if you go everyday & write notes. The midterm& Final are easy, if you study! GOODLUCK ;] BEST TEACHER I HAVE HAD SO FAR AT PIERCE!
Overall Amazing teacher ,the best one i have had at pierce college he makes the subject interesting unlike other professors.Study for all the test and you will be fine!
Really chill dude, just pay attention in class and youll do fine
AMAZING professor! Seriously, everyone at Pierce needs to take him! He will make you see the world in a completely different way and appreciate Sociology. Pretty easy class if you listen during lectures. Took his Honors class and I truly appreciated everything we learned in the class. Thank you Professor McKeever!
You will do yourself a disservice by not taking one of his classes. He'll make you work for an A, but it is worth the work. The textbook reads like a real book, the lectures are amazing, and he will completely transform the way you see your world. Take His Class! TRUST ME ON THIS!
Had him for Honors Race and Ethnic Relations. Pierce is lucky to have him because he is THEE best sociology professor there. He comes off intimidating during the first 2 class sessions to scare slackers away by introducing you to the work load, which isn't even much to begin w. I'm at UCLA now and still haven't found a teacher as insightful as him.
Wonderful teacher. He treats you like an actual human being, not like most professors who just consider you an incompetent student. I would recommend any of his classes to everyone. Of course, you need to read the book, take notes, and show up. Trust me, you'll ENJOY coming to class.
Excellent professor! Took his honors intro class last fall. With taking notes during lecture and studying the key terms from the textbook, you'll do great. McKeever is HILARIOUS; he had me cracking up every lesson. Uses his life experiences as examples in many lessons, all of which were interesting and actually related well. PLUS: he's pretty cute!
Took his class TWICE. 1st time,because I needed a credit for honors, 2nd time I took it for fun. He is very intelligent, fair, passionate about sociology. Don't expect an "easy" A and at the same time he won't make you sweat. Just show up, listen, read and you will get an A! In addition, you will gain knowledge because in his class it's inevitable.
He is very clear about all the information he presents. He also had review for the midterm and the final in such a way that it was enjoyable. I have never seen a review done the way he does it with any other teacher. It is not a easy A, but is not extremely difficult. Take him, but sign up for his class before the first day.
Professor is hands down the best sociology teacher at Pierce. He makes it easy to understand the material, he breaks it down into powerpoints, also he worked as a correction officer. So he knows what he is taking about. I had to retake the course and Im glad because he made it easier to understand. I highly recommend him for any sociology class.
easiest class ive taken..you have to be the lazziest person ever to not get atlest a C. he makes everything clear and prepars you for the tests like crazy. makes you think sociologically BUT...he DOESN'T like the lakers.
Amazing Professor; easy hands down, easy to relate to!!! always listens, will help you if needed!! :) made this class easy for a student like me with ADHD! HE HATES LATE STUDENTS ! You dont always need to bring your book to class. and the term paper is only 3 pages haha!! best class ever!
His class was really interesting.(at least to me). I really learned a lot. He really clarifies things and reiterates important stuff so you can remember them. He also knows how to really make the class very interesting. His tests are easy as long as you attend his class, take good notes, and record the test review. Book- recommended, not needed.
His teaching is 'WOW' !!! Go and take him !!!
Prof McKeever is such an amazing professor. He actually make you want to go to school and learn. His class is if you take notes, do the work, and read. He'll make you like and appreciate sociology. Take very good notes and participate alot. Plus, i think of him as a civil rights activist :) He rocks!
as a new immigrant to this country,he is the first professor my brother and I have found so helpful and so professional,he is different from others.if you are a serious student who wants to know about the world around,u should take his class.you dont have to memorize lines from ur book or anything.he will give u a knowledge that stays with u 4ever.
you will fall in love with him the first day of class, guaranteed. and if not, then youre obviously stupid.
McKeev! He is the reason i changed my major to soc. took him twice for soc 2 & 4 taking his class will change your perspective on life. He is truly a great guy with genuine interest in his students. great sense of humor & swag! I LOVE his dreads :] Best Teacher in the district by far! You wont feel like you have to come to class. You will want to!!
Great professor! Makes class a lot of fun, I truly looked forward to class. Change the way u look at life, RIDICULOUSLY easy- he virtually tells you exactly what will be on the test, offers ton of extra credit. Do not need book at all...
Great class! Dr.McKeever is a great professor. He's very helpful and his lectures will keep you focused and entertained. Not a boring class ever. I defintely would recommend him, I'd take more classes but I'm not a Soc major. Read the chapters before attending class and take advantage of the xtra credit and you will do well earn a good grade.
Where do I begin... He's a wonderful teacher. Take him. GO. It was EASY, but you have to work hard no matter the circumstances.Go to every class to write down powerpoint notes, etc. You will learn alot and actually enjoy going to class. Don't need the textbook.
He's a great teacher. Easy A. Go to class everyday. Taking notes is mandatory. I just spent several hours studying before exams. TAKE THIS CLASS. You will be fine. Lot f extra credits too.. GREAT CLASS, GREAT TEACHER.. you'll enjoy every minute of it :)
He tries to make every class interesting and succeeds. Tells the class when the "pop" quizzes are going to be. Review days tells the class exactly what will be on the test. Attend every class and participate and you will get the full 30 pts.
Great class. the professor is extremely helpful and passoniate. there is one project (not hard) a midterm and a final all multiple choice. Easy class, but its also easy to fail cuz it is an easy class and you need to put in effort you cant just slack off. Note taking is the best thing you can do as well as showing up.
Definitely a great teacher. You can tell that he loves what he does. Lectures are rarely boring, he tries to incorporate humor when he can. Not afraid to drop the F word, so if that offends you, try to ignore it because he's a great teacher. If you listen to what he says and ask questions you'll be fine. Notes aren't a major part, but helpful.
"Hi, Mr. Mckeever!" He is an amazing teacher. Trust.
He really loves what he does and knows a lot about the subject (he's an actual sociologist). He claims that his class isn't easy, BUT IT IS; as long as we study, keep up with his schedule, fully participate and don't "sit on our fannies" all semester long expecting an A to get handed to us. I strongly recommend to anyone eager to learn sociology.
Mr. Mckeever will keep you very interested and also leaves you with more knowledge about Soci. Very helpful, gives extra credit and is ALWAYS giving students extra points. (point base class) I definitely recommend him to anyone interested in Soci. Rarely use the book, BUT take good notes. He provides them to you on a power point. Take him!!
One of the best teachers I have ever had. He makes it so interesting and you want to participate and voice your opinions. The textbook is useful for the chapter terms, although i found his explanations better. I would recommend taking any of his classes! tests and quizzes are easy if you study the terms and pay attention during lecture
Great Professor. Easy A if you actually study, participate in discussions and do xtra credit. PROS: Kind, clear, funny, knows what he's talking about. CONS: ppl will walk in at end of class & sign attendance sheet, not too good with keeping "side conversations" down, long class descussions leading us to rush at end to write down all notes
He is a great professor. He truly knows what he is teaching his students. I love how he shares his past and personal life with his students to share with us the kind of person he was brought up to be today. Great class!! ... and did I mention he is hot hot hot =]
The FAV. professor on campus. As an individual he is amazing, great to be around & an active supporter of several campus clubs. Equally as competent & engaging as a professor. Relates all content to current events & relatable personal issue. Super attractive. Attendance mandatory in the sense that lecture notes not on slides influential to testing.
Professor Mckeever is AWESOME, TAKE HIM!! All we did was debate about current issues and compare them to journal articles he wanted us to read with 3 tests, and 3 assignments. If you have the time take him!! One of the best professors at Pierce, but make sure you make yourself known to him!
Take him!!! He's very intelligent and really knows his subject. As long as you read the book, you'll do fine. He even tells you what you'll need to know for the tests. You won't regret it.
Mckeever is by far the best professor ive ever taken in my two years at Pierce! He is super smart, knows his stuff, and has a background that helps you understand criminology in ways you wouldnt learn in a textbook. Highly recommend him! If you pay attention you'll do well in his class. He offers EC too! Love this guy! He's the Soc PRO literally!
MCKEEVER IS THE BEST TEACHER IVE EVER HAD!!! He is absolutely amazing. His lectures are so interesting and they opened my eyes to things I never really thought about. You need the book because the articles that you read are on the midterm and final. He's an easy A if you read and study for the tests. And he gives extra credit which are really interesting. Definitely recommend because he is honestly such an amazing teacher.
McKeever is by far the most AMAZING teacher EVER in teacher history. If he’s teaching a class and you have to take it, take him!! Didn’t know anything about Sociology and absolutely loved the class. You have to do the reading and be ready to discuss the topics in class. He gives extra credit and always available during office hours to help you.
GREAT TEACHER! EASY CLASS JUST STUDY AND DO UR WORK AND READ THE BOOK
This man is extremely interesting and a great professor. In order to get an A in this class depends on YOU. Do the work and extra credit as well as study and you'll be fine.
Dr. McKeever is the greatest sociology professor! He occasionally adds humor to his lectures to make them for intersting! If you're looking for a course that is challenging yet engaging, take his class!
The best professor of sociology ever!!!His lecturing is brilliant. He tries hard to help every one of his students!! Anyone could tell he loves what he teache's!!
By far the best sociology Professor thanks to him I am now proudly a Sociology Major. He truly takes interest in his students. He has an intense passion for all things Sociology related!!!
Best professor during my 4 years at Pierce, because of him I'm a Criminology major at CSUN now. This class is based on a midterm and final, and some sort of project it varies by semester. He is real though, tells it like it is and is not afraid to swear in class. He gives out extra credit by going to his events. Overall great professor take him.
The best professor ever!! Never knew that I would be interested in sociology, but after taking his class just wanted to go every time and listen him talk!
I am very glad I took this professor because he ultimately helped shape the future for me in regards to what direction I want to take.He is helpful,not only in clarifying the topic for you,but in any other questions u may have about in Sociology.U have to do the readings before class or else it is difficult to keep up and be ready for any exam.
I'm sure he changed his curriculum. At the time he lectured through powerpoint & told you what to write & what to know for the tests. Study the key terms & you will zoom through the tests. But pay attention to the examples he SAYS of those key terms. They're on the test. No hw except for a paper/project towards end He's a great Professor. TAKE HIM!
Write down the key terms and study them for the tests. You do need to attend class and pay attention. He gives extra credit so DO IT! We had a paper based on the book we were reading and it was fairly easy as long as you actually read it. Definitely recommend Dr.McKeever :)
The most intellectual professor I have ever had. He is one of the best professors to have at Pierce or anywhere for that matter. You will learn a lot and have fun doing it.
Great professor !
Very engaging and thoroughlly enjoyable subject matter.
Easy class, and he is super interesting and engaging. I really enjoyed listening to all of his lectures and he really made the class fun. Great professor, one of my all time favorites! Take him, take him, take him!!
McKeever is honestly the most inspiring and interesting teacher I've ever had! You will learn so much and be constantly excited. Do the work and come to class, trust me you won't want to miss because the material is so fascinating.
The class is easy if u come to class and highlight the sections of the articles that he goes over and SO ON (he says that a lot). The midterm and final were a piece of cake.
Amazing. He is brilliant and very interesting. Mckeever is really one of the best teachers a student can have. If you have come to learn or just get an A, you will learn regardless and probably get the A with it. He is inspirational. One of the good ones. Take him. Learn something useful for everyday life.
BEST CLASS EVER! He is the nicest guy! He truly loves his job and it shows he wants to teach his students! he makes the class really interesting! He's really funny and makes you want to learn! TAKE HIM! study for tests and you'll do fine. He says "and so on" after every sentence which drove me crazy but over all was a great class!
Great professor,made the subject very interesting. go to class and do the work you will get a good grade.
If you are on his good side, he is good to you but if you do not play the popularity game and agree with him, he will grade you based more on that then your work. Luckily, I figured out this trick early and just nodded and agreed with all the random BS he talks in class. He fronts a lot and I am not feeling him.
I was excited to take this class, but I feel like we just do the same thing every class; talk about articles. yea we go off topic most of the time but maybe we could try and do something else. he hardly explains the poster project which left me clueless last minute. what bothers me the most about his class is that he curses way too much!
Took his race and ethics class, he said it was his hardest class but honestly if you follow his study guides its an easy A. He makes the topic interesting and relatable, would highly recommend
He has very good lectures, and it's hard to not learn anything. I found myself seeing the world in a new light. The tests are fairly easy if you study, read the book, and pay attention to the lectures. He also really appreciates student input on a lot of the stuff you learn about, which makes the class very welcoming.
He is really nice. Sometimes goes off topic but if you do the work you will pass. Ask for help when you need it. He will help you. Easy A :)
Professor McKeever is an amazing professor! I always looked forward to going to his class. The class lectures were always interesting and I always learned something new. Another plus, he is really hilarious and very knowledgeable on the subject that he is teaching. I would definitely recommend him! :)
Great teacher know what he is talking about you have a group project easy
Professor Mckeever is the best teacher at pierce! His class was amazing, and very interesting. Take his class, you won't be disappointed..
First off, you need the textbook to pass this class. His tests are fairly easy if you read the text and pay attention to what he points out. 3 tests, 2 mini quizzes, rarely any homework, extra credit and one project with or without a group(your preference). he's overall a really funny and open minded professor. would definitely take again :)
McKeever has definitely been the best professor I have yet to take. His lectures are great and his open-mindedness pretty much rubs off on you. I always looked forward to coming to his class. For Soc 11, you need the textbook but just underline the things he tells you and they'll be on the test word for word. Great class with great discussions
Professor McKeever is, hands down, the best professor I've ever had. His classes are inspirational, and force you to take a step back , and look at the large problems in our community, and around the world. Not only are his lectures interesting, they're hilarious. You will be doing yourself an injustice if you don't take one of his classes.
Love his way of teaching! He knows how to catch his students attention and keep them awake during lectures. Both is midterm and final are based on vocabulary so flash cards are definitely useful in this class. Looking forward to taking another class with McKeever!
What can I say... He is the most amazing professor ever. He is so good at what he teaches that it changed my life. He is so inspirational and funny. Not once did I dread going to class. He is there for you with whatever you need help and he answers questions very thoroughly. By far my favorite professor.
He is legit the best professor I have ever seen at Pierce. I took him for honors and I was surprised at how well he teaches, plus he has personal examples that make the class much more interesting. Essays with topics that are current, a midterm, final, 2 extra credits, and participation.
Prof. Mckeever is honestly the best professor I have taken at Pierce. I would show up to class everyday because I loved his lectures. He truly cares about the issues in our world and makes you really interested In the subject. He gives out 2 ""pop"" quizzes, a midterm and a final with E/C oppurtunities. I HIGHLY recommend taking his course!
If you were to put his race class in a church there would be no difference. He makes you aware of societal issues but it's almost as if he doesn't let you decide what to believe for yourself and sort of just manipulates your thoughts with his preachiness. Furthermore, his slides have such little detail and he asks such specific questions on tests.
great professor! Would definitely take again. He offers tons of extra credit so make sure to go to them. You need the book to pass because his class is based on the powerpoint notes and articles he assigns/discusses. He literally goes over everything you need for the test by telling you what to make a note of!! Big mistake if you don't take him
Admittedly, I did not like this class in the very beginning (far too liberal for me), but I came in with an open mind anyway and ended up loving McKeever by the end. Extremely easy class. He offers an abundance of extra credit opportunities, all you need to do is study for the midterm and final and you'll be golden.
THE BEST PROFESSOR AT PIERCE COLLEGE, HANDS DOWN! If you want your experience at Pierce College to be memorable, you need to take McKeever. He is the reason why I changed my major and do not regret it. He is very genuine and does care for his students and goes out of his way to prove that. He is simply one of the greats!
HES SUCH A GREAT TEACHER.
Great professor! Gives ton of extra credit , more than any other professor in college. You only get one essay, which he makes it easy and clear to understand. There are two quizzes , a midterm and final. His lectures are one of the best that there are in college. He really cares about the success of his students.
He teaches really well, not only he makes connections with the textbook and the real world but also helps makes you think deeply understand more the situations learned in class.
Every assignment counts as there aren't many of them. Wants everyone to learn and pass, gives a lot of extra credit opportunities.
Laid back manner. Curses a lot, but in a fun way. Good rapport with his class--impressive considering the sensitive subject material (human sexuality/gender). Soc. 31 covers a lot of material, but McKeever outlines very specifically which parts will be included on quizzes & exams. Slideshows in class reinforce/replace textbook reading. Recommended!
Professor McKeever is easily one of the best professors I've ever had. He clearly cares about what he's teaching and it shows. He's inspirational, funny, smart, and simply just a great guy. The only thing I'd change about this class is that final grade is only based off of 5 assignments (2 quizzes, 1 essay, a midterm, and a final).
He is an amazing professor, gives a lot of extra credit. His lectures are interesting. He has one midterm, final two quizzes, and essay. He tells to buy a book but you dont really need it if you listen to lectures and make good notes. He gives you all the terms you need to know for the test.
Wish I could add more tags! He is the best professor of Sociology I've taken anywhere. Show up to class, participate in discussion, and care about the issues we're talking about and you'll pass.
Best professor in the world. Never hesitate to take him. Aside from being a great professor he is a spectacular mentor and really goes the extra mile to help students succeed. However, you will not pass his class if you skip because participation matters.
Took him for Sociology 31 Genders class! He really cares about his students and is always available during his office hours. If you're not into group projects this one is required which kind of sucks since the group I ended up with really didn't do much but nonetheless it was an easy A. Just make sure to go to class and take notes.
Professor Mckeever is the most caring professor I ever had. He actually cares and not only that but hes hilarious. You only write down what he tells you to note wise unlike the other professors who make you write everything and you only have one test with a couple of mini assignments easiest class I ever took
I dont usually do ratings but Prof. Mckeever was the best ever. His lectures were so inspiring and I was never bored in his class. You only get 2 quizzes the whole semester and reflections that are so easy. I really looked up to him, and he was just so amazing! Do your work and participate you will get an A!
Professor Mckeever is the most caring, funny, and by far the easiest professor I have ever taken. All you have to do is show up and do 4 reflections which are easy, 2 quizzes (only 5 questions each), and a final. The only way you fail is by not trying.
This class was the easiest class I have ever taken and I promise if you take it you won't regret it. The professor cares and is not afraid to speak up for what he believes is right even if that means standing up for one of his students. If you have any room take this class.
A really amazing and caring Prof that does everything to make the class easy, non-stressful, and passable. It's absolutely difficult to not pass the class.
Had the chance to take his gender studies class during fall '18 and I'm so glad I did. He clearly cares about all of his students and is there to not only teach the subject material but also valuable life stuff. There was one group project which he grades based off content but also making sure you tried. As long as you pay attention you're good!
This man is comedy. He has such a fun personality which makes the class so great. He adds to it by personal stories and addresses comments in the class. The winter class has 5 points extra credit opp. 1 quiz 10 questions, 1 final 50 questions. Gives study guide. 4 reflections. Awesome professor, super understanding.
Doctor McKeever is the best professor I've ever had. He is geniunely thoughtful and treats all students with respect. At the beginning of the semester, he asked all students to share their name and pronouns. Additionaly, he keeps the class engaged with his sense of humor and by sharing personal stories to supplement the lecture.
McKeever is the best professor I have ever had. He makes you want to learn from him and is incredibly respectful to everyone's opinions. He connects the class lessons in ways that everyone can understand and he only makes you right down the things that will be on the final exam so you don't have to wonder about what to study.
One of the best professor hands down. Class is comprised of chapter reflections of at least 400 words,"pop quizzes" (which are 5 questions and he emails you the night before the quiz to lyk what it is on and what to bring), and a final. Lectures are amazing. Makes you not want to skip class. Such a funny, caring, intellectual guy. 100% recommend.
He's awesome and super understanding. Just make sure to show up and participate because he does give points of participation. He keeps class very entertaining and he relates a lot with students. You won't regret taking his class. :)
Take his class! You wont regret it.
One quiz, one final exam, participation matters in class, three small writing prompts due out of 5, extra credit offered as well. Pretty easy class, study well because some of the questions can be tricky.
McKeever is best professor I've ever had the pleasure of learning from. He's smart, caring, and hilarious. His lectures are brief, I look forward to class because he makes everything fun & interesting. He REALLY cares about his students, he made the transition with COVID as easy as possible for everyone and he's easily accessible. TAKE HIS CLASSES!
He is my favorite prof out of all the ones in pierce!! Hes very open minded and expects the same from his students. It was a pleasure to take his class. Loved it but then Covid 19 happened and I was sad but he made it a bearable transition and was helpful in providing anything we needed. Participation matters, dont be shy 60% is personal Qs
Go to class and do the reading and it'll be pretty straight forward. He gives fun, inclusive lectures and the assignments he gives are actually enjoyable. You'll learn new things about people and yourself and just an overall fun class to be in
This was my last semester at Pierce and I'm so happy I ended with Professor McKeevers class. We were disrupted by COVID midway so his amazing lectures were not the same online but he truly made the transition so easy. He made the class interesting and relatable. He is very caring, understanding and an amazing human being overall.
The BEST professor at Pierce for socio studies. You MUST take him! He has the best humor, he is always ready to teach his energy really grasps your attention. Study the slides he tells you and youll do great on all discussions and 2 tests. Midterm and final open book due to the covid situation
This was my second time taking a class with Professor McKeever. I learned so much from him. A well-respected man. If you don't take a class with McKeever, it's a sin! He's amazing and if you put forth the effort, you WILL pass!
I enjoyed his class and would for sure take him again. This was my first sociology class and he taught the class amazing. This class doesn't have a lot of homework but you do have to be willing to work. Take him and you won't regret it.
Dr. McKeever is one of the nicest and most understanding teachers you will ever have. He cares about his students and makes easy to get an A if you just care about the class. He makes lectures interesting and always wants to hear students' opinions. Take his class, you won't regret it.
Great teacher. I honestly loved his class I actually enjoyed his homework.
He was great. I took Soc 004 online and his class was chill. He was very lenient with the assignments and changed up a lot of due dates with was helpful. It was hard to get the full potential of the class because it was online though. I recommend him if you're interested in research methods. He's a VERY smart man and will give you good advice.
Dr. McKeever was a down to earth person and very real. I found him to be very inspirational to hear the background he came from and where he is now. Participation is a part of your grade, which is a bit tough over Zoom with 40 people, but otherwise, his assignments were all straight forward and fair. He was always motivational in our class.
Great teacher! Interesting lectures, easy assignments if you study. Extra credit opportunities, learned a lot from his class
Such a wonderful professor super easy just need to pay attention and go to class! Makes you feel very welcomed and you definitely want to take his class! You do need to buy 1 book its about $20 to do the 5 essays on each chapter! He offers extra credit! amazing teacher would definitely take again!
Excellent professor. Took him for Winter 2022. Zoom class and you must have your camera on and must participate in the discussion. Participation is 15% of your final grade. Clearly tells you what is going to be on the final so take some notes during the lecture. Short video lectures with questions at the end. Some extra credit is available.
One of the best professors I have ever taken, and very inspirational, too. He is not afraid to challenge the norm (which, truthfully, is what I'd expect from a sociology professor). He is not afraid to stare at the elephants in the room, and in this analogy, I would call him an elephant hunter. He's worth taking again and again. Do it.
Definitely one of the best professors at Pierce. I adore him, and his lectures are inclusive & inspiring. He recognizes that he does not know everything there is to know about human sexuality, so he takes pointers from his class if needed. I recommend him!
Great professor!! You can tell he is passionate about what he is teaching. Made me love sociology more!
Best Professor hands down. NO COMPLAINTS. It is hard to find professors that connect to the student and he is able to do that while informing us on topics that are relevant. Funny man, realest person without holding back his beliefs, and he makes me consider changing my major or getting into a profession that can use sociology for sure!!! Trust!
