I've seriously never had a better professor in my life. Kevin Walling is the most helpful professor ever and continues to help students even outside of the classroom, if you're interested in furthering your justice studies career with law school. He respects students, has boundaries and guidelines, does not allow cell phone use and is informative.

Intimidating at first, since he really likes to call on people. But many of the students would now know the answer and he would wait patiently or help them through it.

Many do not like him because he will call on you randomly and ask both easy and difficult questions, so if you are super antisocial, I would be aware. It can be embarrassing but I honestly loved it since I am paying for these classes, I better learn something, and with walling he would make sure of that. This made the course informative, and fun.

Walling makes assignment expectations very clear, is willing to help, and gives really informative lectures. If you don't like talking in class, be aware that he cold-calls a lot, but he just does it to get the class actively thinking. He can be intimidating, but ultimately he's super funny, runs an entertaining class, and is an overall great prof.

Great professor. This is the second class I have had with him. This class is only difficult because there is a difficult midterm and a final, but not too bad. Other than that, grading is very easy and clear.

I had criminal behavior and victimology with Walling. Ultimately, he tried to fail me (gave me a zero on a large assignment) because I "forgot a subheading"... I transferred to Derrick Jones and have no regrets. Jones was fantastic and truly cared about my success. Additionally, Jones followed the rubric and did not shame me for a simple error.

Professor Walling is an African-American member of the NAACP, and has assisted students in getting internships through the NAACP and other organizations like the Maricopa County Superior Court. Plays jazz to start class. Fun.

Walling worked at Hershey (The Chocolate guys) for like 10 years before coming to GCU. Great leads in the candy industry and interns galore!

Kind of confused on why many of the ratings state inaccurate information to hype this man up.. I dropped this class and never looked back.

Professor Wallings class is a room field of love! With a minor in African American experiences I was so impressed with his knowledge on civil rights. He truly cultivates an inclusive environment. His jokes put a smile on your face. And he wants to see everyone succeed.

I loved Professor Wallings class. I literally only went for him. He is so incredibly funny and easy going. He is strict on the phone policy and sometimes cold calls but it's not in a mean spirited way, he just wants to hear your opinion. I would take this class again if I could. My favorite prof ever!

Professor Walling is awesome. He is super funny and engages with the whole class. He makes the lectures easy going but will call on students so make sure you are paying attention. Overall great professor.
