I would give another prof. a shot and skip him. Perks: end class early, friendly, extra credit, gives online textbook, he's knowledgable. Bad: will end class when we're confused/don't participate, thick accent (idc), unclear with work, can't teach ("that's the answer b/c it is type"), doesn't post grades, online testsWORST. Always timed out/hard

Skip class? You won't pass.

DO! NOT! TAKE! midterm 40% final 50%. gives 4 questions in advance, says he'll chose only 3 but gives ALL. EACH question must b answered in 800!!! words so a total of 2400 words. gives only about 3 hours to do it. there is written hw 10% but he never specifies what each hw is about. NEVER posted the hws or grades. PLEASE AVOID HIM TAKING HIM!

Enjoyed the material in the class but the professor could have done a better job. Gives weekly HW but doesn't put it up on blackboard to submit. Doesn't grade the HW either. I got no feedback on my midterm essay and probably no feedback on my final as well. The class was not structured enough to garner conversation during lecture, was boring classe

Very sweet, truly cares about his students well being. He may not be the best at teaching, you have to really self teach yourself the whole time, but his powerpoints are the best to help you. Had two tests, some hws. Your mostly graded by tests! I would say give him a shot if you can self teach yourself well. Overall, class was short and was sweet

I loveeeed this class so much. The exams were so easy (just make sure to do the readings in the textbook, all the answers are there) He rarely gives homework and when he does, you have about a week to do it. One thing is that he does take a couple of days to respond to emails but other than that, he was an amazing prof. He also gives extra credit!!

Best professor for this class. Took his class asynchronous and it was an easy A. 4 homeworks and 2 exams. Homework answers were all in textbook. He provides free e-book. Also offered 2 extra credit

Surely a amazing professor, just not online, that's how I summarize it. To not his fault though, he clearly has decades of experience, just not online & that lack of touch with technology does show. I worried for my grade but in the end, I contacted him & we were able to come to a grade that I'm okay with. Unless he changes it last minute somehow.

This professor was very easy. One assignment (3 prompts), one midterm with 3 prompts and one final paper of your choice. He likes in depth writing. If you're a good writer you'll pass this class with ease. He's also very nice and democratic. Participation and Attendance are not majorly important if you have a group chat. Nice guy.

i went to his lectures about 5 times over the entire semester and still managed to do good. He was really sweet and funny and likes to interact with the students. If sociology wasnt boring for me I wouldve attended his lectures more just cuz of who he is. Tests were online and we didnt have anything else graded.

Prof. Alexiou is very passionate about Sociology.He truly cares about his students & although his lectures are a bit hard to follow through he was the reason y I decided to become a double major (started with Psychology Major,Sociology Minor).Go 2 class,participate, do assignments & u will do fine.Not the easiest A but obviously possible w/ effort.

The tests and assignments for this class are very easy, and he is a very nice person who genuinely cares about his students. However, he does have a very strong accent. If you actually want to learn, it might be a bit difficult. He doesn't really have slides up, and most of the time he just talks.

As kind and caring as a professor can get. He truly cares about his students and creates the most welcoming classroom. However, lectures were disorganized and hard to follow. Half the time we looked at the posted slides, the other half we would just listen to him talk. If you want an easy A and are willing to sit through boring lectures, take him.

Professor Alexiou is super funny and caring. There are only 2 online tests and a few writing assignments regarding readings, but they are super easy to comprehend. If you plan to not go to class, make sure to check Brightspace because they will announce exams, etc. I would definitely take this class again.
