He was a little disorganized and unclear about assignments and tests. He has been the most open professor I have ever had, he will really work with you to improve your grade. If you have a question about a test he is very open to what you have to say. In terms of grading, he is the fairest I've had.

I'd recommend this class. Not a lot work, a couple of papers, midterm, and final. Mr. Wilson is very helpful with your grade. He'll review your papers before you submit them and give advice. If you study the notes that he gives, the tests aren't bad at all. Subject matter is very useful for life.

Nicest professor I've ever had! Wants his students to do well and will work with you! Easy grader. As long as you do the work and study a little for the test you'll do fine. He basically told us everything that was on the first test. He's a little disorganized but he's such a sweet man. RECCOMEND

What a great class! prof is soo easy! have to write a couple response papers, but he completely ate up all the crap i wrote. Tells you everything that's on the test. Just study a little. TAKE THIS CLASS!

I disagree with the last post. I think he is very knowledgeable about sociology and is very passionate about it, which interests and inspires the students.

I disagree with the 3rd post. Prof. Wilson is one of the best profs. I have ever had. Although he may not always be clear, he is very willing to help his students and is very fair in grading. He talks about the Vietnam war alot to relate class concepts to his life experiences, also is knowledgable on sociology. His classes are not a waste of time!

I ALSO disagree with that post, the only reason he would appear not knowledgable is because he is a little disorganized.. but if you have a decent level of intelligence he is not that hard to follow. He is also helpful outside of class, grades easily, and always loves student opinions. I would gladly take him again. RECOMMEND

I liked Professor Wilson. He's a nice professor & the class really isn't that hard, but you do have to study for the tests. 1 paper, ours was on the Shawshank redemption and was a creative paper. Not bad at all. Go to class, it usually doesn't last longer than 40 minutes. Some readings, but if you don't understand it, just come to the next class.

I had Ron Wilson for SOC 210 and 240. He is helpful, likeable, layed back and after taking the two, he won my respect. The tests were average but sometimes he could add a little excitement to the lectures. This class is a must and I received two B+ in them. You should do fine.

Prof. Wilson is a nice and laid back guy. No attendance policy. Lectures are boring but to the point. He usually lets you out 20-25 minutes early. He encourages discussions, but it never really happens. Tests are right out of the notes. One research essay. Made class optional last week before finals!

Like everyone else said, he's laid back, and his class is pretty damn easy. Lectures are unbelievably boring. Two tests, one paper.

Only has two exams (one mid term one final) and a 10 page paper THATS it! The class is as interesting as you make it out to be - would recomend Professor Wilsons -

I took think class b/c I thought there was a paper on the Shawshank Redemption... there's not. I was disappointed. Even so, it's a pretty easy class. A midterm, final, and 10 quizzes, so you have to do well on them- but you most likely will. Easy B, work a little harder for an A.

i got an 80 on the midterm with studying. attendance policy but if you dont miss any u get 2 extra % points at the end. and if u miss on you get 1% exta. 10 quizzes, drops the lowest two. pretty easy. i would recommend this class. lets u out 15-20 min early. TAKE THIS CLASS!!!!!

TAKE HIM! So much better than any other gsoci professor. 10 easy 10 question quizzes, he gives you have the answers in the lecure before the quiz. 2 exams, if you study your notes then there straight from them, nothing random. Lets you out 20 min early for a 50 min class. can't beat that

Decent teacher. Class is pretty easy, just do the readings. His lectures can be lengthy, but informative. I have fallen asleep a few times in that class, so just be aware of that if you get him in the morning. I'd recommend the class and Wilson, good guy.

Awesome Teacher! Interesting class and he is extremely helpful, awesome guy def. take this teacher for this class!

Class brought on interesting discussion, sometimes he couldn't answer our questions. CLass consists of 10 quizzes from the weekly reading. Quizzes can be picky and tricky,read closley.Mid-term and final right from notes. Don't miss class, u miss lecture notes which can't be gotten anywhere.

semi easy. you have to read the text, which is boring and kinda hard to follow at times. mandatory attendence but you just take notes and get out 10 or more mins early. weekly reading quizzes. tests consists of lecture notes and maybe 10 questions from readings so focus on lecture notes. I recommend him, easy B, tough A

I disagree with the person who posted the mean comment. He is a great instructor, and I enjoyed the class very much. I learned a lot from him and found the class very interesting and insightful.

Absolutely my favorite class/professor. I took the class as a GenEd and it ended up being my favorite class, I'm so glad I had him. You have a couple readings for each class-but they aren't long at all. 10 question multiple choice quiz each week on the readings/lecture notes. I got 100's on all of them. Tests are very fair. He's amazing!

The class was extremely boring. A quiz every week, but all you have to do is listen to what he says before the quiz and you'll be fine. Midterm, final, attendance required. Boring, but easy!!

Class was a little boring at times, but Professor Wilson is great. There are readings every week but he goes over them before quiz days and lets you know what is important. Not exactly the most interesting class but it was easy.

Professor Wilson is a generally good professor. He knows his stuff and class is typically pretty interesting. Be prepared for his performances of random scenarios most class periods. Reading for almost every class period but they are usually fairly short. I would highly suggest highlighting/underlining in your textbook to review for weekly quizes.

great teacher. weekly readings &quizzes on them every fri. you can make them up in his office. Midterm/Final are based on readings and concepts discussed in class. He is great and incredibly helpful if you talk to him outside of class. loves to tell stories and give examples of material. talks about vietnam a lot since he was in the army. take him!

Great teacher but hard to understand sometimes. At least skimming the reading is enough to stay afloat on the quizzes. Go to class and you can get an A. Really helpful teacher, treats it like the GenEd it is.

this is the 2nd time i've taken him...very easy & such a nice guy. quiz every week on the readings but they're so easy and ends up adding points to it anyways! for the final he added 10 points! TAKE HIM!!!

Biggest waste of a class i may have had in a while. not hard, but definitely among the most boring classes possible. in reality, grade is comprised of the two tests (final and midterm) with reading quizzes everyweek that near any fool can get a 10/10 on despite never reading. focus on the tests, they are all that matter in essence

I missed a ton of class. Pretty much no effort. I went to his office hours and he let me make up a ton of quizzes and somehow I could pull a B. Easiest class with the slightest bit of effort

Milton from office space's TWIN! Really liked this man: very knowledgeable on the subject & ALWAYS ENTHUSIASTIC! Too nice at times.Take this class, not much work just quizzes once a week (which if you come to class and read you can pass with A's).Interesting anecdotes from his time in Nam. You'll be entertained and get a GenEd Credit.

Very nice, friendly teacher. Attendance isn't mandatory, but you should still go because he doesn't post his notes on blackboard. One quiz every friday, which is an easy A if you did the reading. Exams are hard, so be prepared to study a lot for them.

Great teacher and great person. Go to his office hours- he is always willing to help, very encouraging, and will do whatever it takes to help you get the grade you want. Take him!

Class was basic, as were the tests. If you pay attention you'll do fine. Not very enjoyable, but predictable.

This class was not bad at all. If you do the assigned readings and attend the lectures you'll be fine. He offers extra credit opportunities that will boost your final grade by a couple of points. I really enjoyed the class.

Quizzes every friday on the readings, mid-term, final, and two extra credit opportunities. He is very into sociology and very insightful. However, he's kinda goofy, quiet, and repetitive. He LOVES when there's class discussion...if there's none he'll complain about it and how it negatively affects everyone's grade. Do the readings and take notes!

Wilson may not be the most interesting professor, but how interesting can an introductory to sociology possibly be? Quizzes just about every Friday and he goes over the answers throughout the week. If you go to class and study a little beforehand, the tests are not difficult. Easy gen ed.

Ron is a great instructor! He has stories for everything, and goes over the quiz answers before you take the quiz. Not difficult to do well, but you have to read. Great class!

Boring lectures, no power point. But a very nice man! If you dont understand the material, visit him during his office hours. if you visit him a lot during his office hours, he boost your grade at the end of the year. It's okay if you failed the first half of the semester...you will understand more the 2nd half

extra credit if you miss less than two classes. i didnt read any articles and got an A. he highlights the main points right before you take the weekly quizzes. drops the lowest quiz. 1 midterm. 1 final. tricky wording but if you know your stuff you'll be fine. easy A.

Good teacher, talks a lot about wars, metaphorical and physical. Quizzes aren't hard, his lectures usually go over the questions he will ask. Midterm and Finals are the things you need to look out for; he asks questions that are tricky (most answers seem like the right one, you need to choose the best though). Interesting articles to read about.

if you're looking for an easy gen-ed take him, lectures are extremely boring but the weekly quizzes are really easy even without reading if you listen to what he says in class. Nice guy overall and if you go to his office hours and ask for help he'll usually round your grade up at the end.

Class is really easy. He lets you out early all the time. Mid-term, final, and 10 quizzes every Friday. Just listen to what he says and he gives you the answers on the quizzes and tests. Means well and if you go to his office he gives you answers and bumps up your grade. No much work easy GenEd

This is class is boring but in the lectures he gives you the answers for the quizzes. You have a quiz almost every Friday but you get out early almost every class. You are assigned readings for every class. Some are really short but others are long and boring. The midterm and final are ok but some of the questions weren't relevant to the readings.

This class is boring and Wilson does go off on tangents, butttttt if you read the assigned readings it's an easy A or B.

He is a nice old man. will do fine if you go to class and read the not long chapters for class. For his two tests, the midterm and final study by looking over the notes and you will do fine. Any one will do fine in this class if they put in any effort

Its not a bad class to take. The lectures and readings are interesting but its hard to get an A. He has weekly quizzes but he gives all the answers in his lectures. Tests you do have study a lot for.
