Professor Youngman is pretty cool. She's sometimes funny and talks about some interesting subjects. It is definitely boring sometimes. You have to read the book a lot but she tells you exactly what you need to do and what to do to be prepared for the next class. She will call someone out for cell phone use or talking. I'd recommend her class.

I did not enojy this class. When I was lost and asked for help, she said she didn't know what to tell me. You have to read the entire book in order to know the material. She does not make the class interesting. Her grades consist of 4 quizzes, a midterm and a final. No chance for extra grades or bunus. I would not reccomend her.

Most overwhelmingly unnecessary intense courses I've ever taken at SLU. Classwork isn't difficult, but there is  ALOT if you keep with HW you will pass because it accounts 40% of your grade. The positive thing is that she gives allow 2nd attempts. If you respect your MENTAL HEALTH BEWARE ;/ YOU WILL WORK IN THIS CLASS. IM GLAD it's OVER :)

Lots of homework

This was a horrible class. She is a horrible communicator and does not clearly say what she wants for assignments but as soon as you turn it in shes very clear on what she didnt want. I wouldnt recommend her to anyone and dont take her unless you have to

There is one quiz a week, and 4 tests. She gives a lot of information and is very helpful when you ask questions. There is a lot of reading, you read about one to two chapters a week in the text book. She will give extra reading other than in the textbook sometimes too, but not too often. Very opinionated too, but overall a nice teacher.

Gives good feedback

if you don't agree with her political opinion you wont pass, she lectures about things irrelevant to what's on the test, grades papers very hard. I would NEVER take her again, she is disorganized and only teaches her political opinion. I learned nothing except what she believes. One of the WORST professors I've had. She also gives a lot of HW.

I did not like her class at all. Her test were nothing like her study guides. We had a reading quiz every week and a test almost every two weeks. Plus a final for all Sociology classes which I was not aware of until last minute. If you take her class be aware of the test styles.

This class was awful. It was so unorganized and the professor was not respectful to her students. Very unclear grading criteria for assignments as well.

I went to every class, participated in every activity, turned in every assignment on time. I was 0.24 away from the lowest A and she WOULD NOT ROUND IT UP. Very liberal so I wouldn't recommend it, has lots of opinions she should keep to herself. When taking her tests ask yourself: "What would she want me to put, instead of what would I put."

Had a better time in this than her soc 203 course but I would not say it was quite as good as her soc 101 course. There are lots of assignments and readings, the textbook readings arent required but they certainly help you pass and understand whats happening in class. She also tries to get students engaged through occasional class discussion.

This might be the most intensive workload I have ever been given in a college class. Back to back papers with a boatload of homework assignments peppered in, Dr. Youngman grades intensely and submits it back for you to get a better grade...but if you don't make a second submission you'll get a zero for your work. Avoid taking this one if possible.

Great teacher but her tests were sorta confusing if you didnt read the books. Make sure you watch ALL videos and read ALL articles!! She makes short answers based off them! The exam was not too difficult because some questions were past test questions. I ended with an A. L
