if your looking for a teacher who is easy and still can get alot of knowledge from, he is your teacher. this guy makes everyone participate so the class is always involoved. he never has a boring lectures because he speaks to his students like friends rather than students.
THIS IS THE EASIEST CLASS EVER!!!!. i took soc 120. damn all you do is one presentation to the class for the whole unit. No tests no anythign. you are supposed to read but he didnt test anybody.
very interesting, he makes class fun to go to. group discussions. not a boring class
Cares about his students and will go to great lenghts to help them.
He is the best teacher that i have had so far. I actually wanted to come to his class.
The best teacher I've ever had. Sometimes he goes off on tangents and loses his point, but it's ok because he's fun to listen to. And, he's eye candy ladies!
OMG best teacher EVER! Anyone who comes to COD needs to take this class. I learned so much but at the same time did absolutly nothing except for a presentation. People who don't like to go to class beware b/c he takes off major pts. VERY smart, educated, openminded man!
great teacher, great class
He is the best professor I have had. He knows what he is talking about and he makes the class very fun. You learn a lot of information but it is never boring. He really does care about his student's and he will answer all of your questions.
he is very easy and he is very passionate about what he teaches. he very understanding. he goes beyond the book when telling about something.

by far, the BEST teacher i have ever had!!!! he was really easy going, no tests, no quizzes, it was simple and easy. plus he always keeps you interested. great teacher!!!!!!!
A W E S O M E
I don't even go to cod ne more and I would have to say that Mr. Hogan is the best teacher ive ever had. I took 2 classes w/ him and they were both completely organized differently. They were easy but i still learned alot. It is required that u talk in his classes and attend and if you do that, you in. To be honest, I am not one who goes to class much, but I went to his classes. If i was still at cod I would take another class with him and I still want to. many of my friends have taken him too and love him2
One of the best professors I have ever had, he is a good and honorable man. An excellent teacher who knows how to get the lessons across and have students start to think out of the box. I highly recommend him to anyone interested in sociology or political science. He will help anyone who needs it, truely an amazing individual.
He is one of the best at COD. Sorry you had your bad experience so you say, however, you must not have partcipated, or done your work in his course. This is all he ask of his students. He is open minded and fair to all. I have had him for most of my sociology courses.
Fantastic, energetic and enthusiastic professor! If you have only one class to take at COD, take one of his! Prof. Hogan completely is committed to his students--ALL STUDENTS! He keeps things fresh, fun and lively! Take his class and you'll find you go because you want to--not because you need to! And you'll be forever glad you did!

He has a great personality. Not only is he HOTT, but also a great professor! I would recommend him to everybody! HIs class is easy if you particapte and show up. He's great, take him!
He is by far the best teacher Ive ever had. He cares, he isnt prejudice at all. He gives and spends time with anyone and everyone, even the ones who arn't interested. He makes class fun for everyone. I had time showing up to class and making class on time during my 1st year of college, but I always made his class. Show up, participate, do hw=A
AWESOME teacher!!! Very passionate on the subject and always willing to listen to other people's views with an open mind.
this is one of the worst teachers i've ever seen. he brags about how great his teaching methods are, but they suck. many of the questions that he askes in his papers were NEVER discussed in class. i take notes everyday in his class, and almost none are used for those papers. i've talk to other students in the class and they agree, don't take him!
Mr. Hogan is a great teacher. He is very fair and patient. He cares about how well his students handle his material and will do all that he can to not leave anyone behind. He makes class interesting and is a wonderful teacher. I'd recommend him any time!GET REAL!!!
Hogan is a great teacher..my cousin and i took the same class and both agreed that we learned a lot from him. I really recommend this teacher for other students.oh yay!!!!!
Sex, Marriage & family is a great class! His classes are always so fun. It is a discussion based class with about half of your grade from participation and attendance, so go to class but it is so fun and you get out early. He is a great professor and I would take any of his classes. He is such a nice guy and just wants to have others blearn more.
Professor Hogan has been one of the best teachers I have ever had. His race and ethnic relations class is very interesting. The round table discussions each class can get pretty intense. You really get a chance to share your true feelings in this class. You learn about topics through views and opinions that you haven't learned about before.
He is a wonderful teacher, whom is not only great to look at, but so dedicated to his students, and all you have to do is show up to all classes to get a B. He's so fun you will always want to be on time. though he is a little bragadose... full of himself.
Honestly, I'm halfway through his sex/marriage/family class and just signed up to take his social problems class. He is a wonderful professor. Really grinds the information into your head and forces you to think outside the box. He doesn't ask for much, good attendance and participation. TAKE HIM!!! I wouldn't miss the chance.
I have taken three classes with him and will definetly take more if I can. He is the best teacher I have ever had! I have decided to declare a minor in Sociology because of him. You always get out early but you still will learn so much from him. He is so nice and will help you out with anything you need. Attendance counts for a lot with partici.
Dr. Hogan is awesome! I had him for Sex, Marriage & Family... really knows what he's talking about. Spends time talking about interesting subjects and discussion or taking notes from a powerpoint. Tests are take home and you get a week, very easy. Takes attendence at the beginning of class... and we get out at least 10 minutes early every day.
Dr. Hogan is da bomb. He is a very good teacher. Hes not easy nor will he let you just do nothing and get an A. But we had a lot of classroom discussions, which was great and helpful (my way to learn). We had 3 takehome essays which is a lot about what we talk abotu and applying it. Im taking again as much as possible, he knows his stuff
Mr. Hogan was the best professor I have ever had. He knows his stuff and is a great teacher. I took 3 classes with him and he has been a great influence in my academic career, he is still a great help to me in my graduate studies. I took his classes almost 3 years ago and would reccomend him to anyone.
Dr. Hogan is an awesome professor! He's extremely intelligent and our class discussions are always heated! We have three take-home exams, which are simple! Take this class! I highly recommend Dr.Hogan!
Professor Hogan is an awesome professor I think as well! He's knowns his subjects and is extremely intelligent.The class discussions are always heated and an eye opener. His exams can be difficult but he works with you and will help you to get through them if you work with him.I highly recommend him.
Dr. Hogan is an amazing teacher! You will love him, he makes the class fun, and very interesting. He really knows what he is talking about! So honestly just take him. His tests aren't that hard you just got to look more into it i promise you you will get an A! just show up, talk, and do well on the tests!!

This class was great! I took it over the summer and it was well worth it. I learned a lot from the course and it's been my favorite sociology course so far. You need to read the chapters assigned and have an interesting fact to discuss each class. Attendance is manditory. There are no test just a few papers. If you work hard you'll get a good grade
I had such a good time in class. 40% of the grade is participation and doesn't let you into class after 5 past, and lose points for it. This class pushed me to not be shy. His exams can be tough, but well worth it.
Hogan made the class very interesting with his stories and methods of teaching. Grade is based on papers, but all answers to the questions are in the book or his powerpoints presentations. Atttendance is required to succeed. Highly recommended if you want to throughly understand the subject of sex, marriage,and relationships.
Incompetent! I didn't learn anything in his class and I don't think he actually reads the tests, as long as you have have enough pages and works cited you'll get an A. He does class discussions, but he does not contribute to them, looked like students new more then him. His class is an easy A, if you attend and talk.
I had such a good time in class. 40% of the grade is participation and doesn't let you into class after 5 past, and lose points for it. This class also pushed me to not be shy. His exams can be tough, but well worth it.
One of the best teachers you will ever have IF you show up to class. This guy is what a teacher should be like.
Prof. Hogan is very fair. I took him for sociology and political science, U just don't get grades as previous. He make you earn your grade along with learning a lot.Fun prof.. TAKE HIM
Mr. Hogan is a great teacher. He is very fair and patient. He cares about how well his students handle his material and will do all that he can to not leave anyone behind. He makes class interesting and is a wonderful teacher. I'd recommend him any time!
If you dont want to learn anything at all. take this teacher. waste of my money and time.
Sorry the previous person is a hater. I learn a lot in his class and other student in our classes with second that.
This class is fantastic. He relates topics from the book to actual events and breaks it down and you actually get a mind full and what he's talking about. The class discussion are the best because you get more views from other people. Great Class, serious topics and as long as u do the work, attend, and participate you will be fine.
Worst teacher ever! Do NOT take him, a 2 year-old could do a better job.
This teacher is amazing! He has lots of in class discussions and he's easy.But you MUST read the chapters and MUST attend class...do a decent job on Ur tests...(all take home essays)!!! and Ur going to get at least a C to B... Anyone who says otherwise must not have tried or didnt come to class??
This class was SO fun!! About 40% of the grade is based on class discussion, so show up and talk. There are 4 or 5 papers, which aren't too bad. Read the book! Pop quiz if you don't!!
Dr.Hogan was great! we can wonderful class discussions and he was very helpful. A good guy who knows what he is talking about and loves what he does. His experiences and the classes experiences were great knowledge for the class, (marriages and families). Would recommend him in a heart beat! Flexible but not too flexible, just make sure to read&tal
dr. hogan is probably one of the most lively teachers i've ever had. he really goes deep into the subjects but not so much so that you get lost in them. although he is incredibly intelligent, he still manages to keep it all in lamence terms. his essays are very easy and he even gives you extra credit! HONESTLY...take him if you want to pass!
Professor Hogan was soo easy!! Attendance is mandatory though, but I looked forward to going to all his classes. The summer course is so chill and he let us use our book for the final! loved him!
The man has a voice that could calm a pack of rabid wolverines. Great teacher... fun...all you have to do is show up, participate in discussions, do the work, and you do great!
Funny Guy keeps it academically sound, and he know what's up
he is a fantastic teacher and keeps the class talking during discussions. Hell call you out if needed, and tells everything how it really is. he is hilarious and very nice. he is very lively and everyone enjoys his class. i would take another one of his courses.
Hogan is the Best!!! He always checks to make sure you're following what hes saying. He rambles a bit, but he is an amazing teacher.
He is an amazing teacher. i wish we had more Professors like him but if ur one of those students who doesnt want to come to class or are running late then this is not ur kind of profes. its 50% of ur grade by showing up. He really makes u look outside of the box. LOVE HIM!!!!
i dont know anyone that doesnt like him. if anyone gets a chance to take him TAKE HIM RIGHT AWAY his classes fill up fast because he is the best thing that happened to teaching. you will love this guy.he is so funny, nice,smart,and not really hard but he wants u to think outside of the box. he opens ur eyes to things u nvr imagined. LOVE HIM!!!!!!!
THE BEST TEACHER... HANDS DOWN. everyone should take his class. he makes sociology fun. i was so clueless & still enjoyed the class. he is a great person & a great teacher. i wish i could take every class with him. omg i'm gonna miss him when this semester is over :( TAKE HIM FO'SHO.
Best teacher ive had since starting college. great instructor and guy. funny stories, amazing experience. you will learn alot about yourself, life, sociology, and more. Truly inspirational and makes a huge impact. makes class relaxed and makes you get to know your class mates. Your an idiot if u dont take him
The Best Teacher!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone should take him. I never liked sociology but he will get you interested in the subject. Great teacher and very understanding. Very helpful always there when you need him.
Mr. Hogan is a good teacher and he breaks the material down so that you can understand. Participation in class is mandatory. You need to read and come prepared to discuss the chapter. If you participate and do your work and come to class you will get a good grade but you have to work for it.
Professor Hogan is awseome at teaching. He is down to earth and can relate to younger students.
this teacher made sociology so much more interesting to me. i recommend him!
Knows his stuff. He is helpful and patient with us.
Attendance is a must!! If you attend class every day and participate, you are guaranteed an A. If you want a challenge definitely don't take this professor! I sometimes think that he doesn't read the papers that the students turn in because he provides no feedback. All he does is write a check that you turned it in. Easy A if you attend class.
The professor is definitely educated in his work. I highly recommend students take his course.
Hogan is just awesome. I entered his class not knowing a thing about sociology and still did fantastic in his class; he totally made sociology understandable! He is extremely smart and such a fun teacher!!
He's an awesome teacher and to anyone else who didn't rate him with a high score they're probably just bitter about receiving a bad grade or something..which is a little difficult seeing as how if you just put forth a normal amount of effort, you'll receive an A. Very interesting teacher and hands down best professor at C.O.D.
Dr. Hogan is GREAT! I have taken 2 of his classes and he really knows his stuff. Great class discussions. He gives great notes and as long as you follow his guidelines you will have no problem getting an A. He is the best one of the best teachers I have ever had!
Attendance is the most important part of your grade. I really enjoyed our discussions and watching videos related to the topics we were reading about. He definitely relates to young students well. He is willing to work with you for a fair final grade. Take him!!
PROFESSOR HOGAN IS AWESOME! He relates well to real life experiances. You have to do all the work and attendance IS important. You can only miss three classes without your grade being affected. This class really taught me a lot. I would definitely take Professor Hogan again!
Take Doctor Hogan if you can! He is great, very relaxed teaching style. He is also open-minded and encourages discussion. One thing though: you must be on time and attend class!
Dr. Hogan is by far the best instructors I have ever had. He is interesting and full of energy. He takes a raw approach to the class, which I like. I would definitely recommend taking his class.
Prof. Hogan was a great teacher. I had him for Sociology 1100 and he made it very interesting. Although the work is hard, he makes the material easy to learn. One word of advice though...make sure you talk in class discussions! Big points are there!
He is by far the best professor you will ever take, he makes you think about the world threw an entire different eye. He is very understanding very helpful extremely funny, honestly Dr Hogan finds a way in your heart. Do not disrespect him by thinking it will be easy but enjoy the ride, his class spots fill up fast so make sure you get him early
Awesome teacher just make sure you participate!! he's sucha down to earth teacher and his stories are very interesting u wont regret taking his class!
One of my favorite teachers. He is a really nice guy and he loves teaching. He likes when people participate in class discussions. We didn't even have a written final which was nice. Definitely take him, he's the best.
Professor Hogan is an awesome teacher. His class is fun and exciting. I Highly Recommend Taking His Class!
HE IS AWESOME. ATTENDENCE IS MANDATORY but get 3 free days unless you have a doctors note. tests are not east but take notes and mention during the test to see if you can use your notes. you will be surprised on his answer =) TAKE HIM FOR ANY CLASS YOU CAN! He is just like a short kat williams. NO FINAL FOR THIS CLASS EITHER
Mr. Hogan is the best teacher I've had at cod. I took him for 2220 as you see and many people may think im exaggerating with my ratings. I most definitely am not. He really looks to engage his students into learning and he can relate to just about anyone. I recommend taking him for whatever you can!
This is the only class that I?ve taken that I haven't been tempted to take a nap. He is kind, knowledgeable, and understanding. The tests are off the notes but you must read the material. I spoke to a few other people in the class and they said the same thing. Take him and see for yourself.
Professor Hogan is extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. You can tell he loves to teach Sociology. I would recommend his class. He always tries to do what he can to help you succeed in his class.
Professor Hogan was a very good teacher. It was clear and if you didn't understand just ask right then. He would always remind us that if we needed him to let him know. There were in class quizzes very easy and really no major final exam. He also offers extra credit. I would refer anyone to him. If I may add, he has a very nice dress code.
Prof. Hogan is very nice. He always makes time for his students and presents information in an entertaining way. I loved the class!
Very helpful and fun. Treats students like peers but still remains professional. A great teacher! Overall, this was one of the most challenging and engaging class I have taken at COD.
I absolutely love this man, he is my favorite teacher ever! He take the time to help you if you ask for it.
Hilarious! And he is a great teacher. He looks like Steve Harvey but is short and acts like Kat Williams. Class is alot of fun but exams are very hard. Definently take this class
Dr. Hogan is awesome! Cares about the well-being of his students. If you talk to him about personal problem, he genuinely cares. Class is fun and heavily discussion based. Only had 2 tests. Do the reaction papers!! They save you. Final was supposed to be a paper, but we voted it to be group projects. Go to class as well. Have an attendance grade.
Entertaining, very knowledgeable and so funny! A great teacher and learned a lot in his class!
There is no words to describe Dr. Hogan. He cares about his students and will always be there to help. I learn a lot from his class and it has been the most interesting class I have taken so far.
Great professor. His personality makes class extremely entertaining. Very knowledgeable about what he teaches. Do your reactions papers and you will be fine.He may test if he feel you are slacking in class.
Great teacher and an even better guy. Knows every thing about the class. If you show up every day you will have no problem getting a good grade. But if your lazy and never read or show up you will still probably pass but dont cry like a baby if you dont
Awesome guy, he really knows his stuff. I enjoyed this class a lot. He "keeps it real" and gives you a lot of great facts. As long as you go to class and participate, and read when he asks you to, you'll have no problem passing the class.
Professor Hogan is a really great teacher and a great guy. I really enjoyed his class and did really well. He is always willing to talk to you after class and just participate in class, do your reaction papers and study and read the book when you are supposed to and you will be fine. Highly recommended!
Dr. Hogan was and is a great professor. He explains everything that is needed to have a full and guinuine relationship. He cares alot about your well being and enjoys assisting you with insite on your life. Make sure you read the textbook and memorize it and you will pass the class with ease. Do a great job with reaction papers and you will pass.
Dr. Hogan is a GREAT professor. He knows what he is talking about. He is also very funny and he loves to hear your opinion. Easy A if you do the reaction papers. He is always willing to help you on anything you need. Counld't ask for a better professor.
he is a really good professor
Really the best teacher ever. he really down to earth he really nice and if you fail the class its you fault because he is the best of best.
Dr. Hogan is outstanding. Loved every minute of this class. It was Adult Fast Track and the work load was very manageable. He's very outgoing and encourages class discussion and that was the funnest part. You got to know everyone in class. It was a great experience, take Him, you'll not regret it!
Dr. Hogan, without a doubt, was the best teacher I have ever had. What he teaches you is life and reality, and the way he teaches it, super cool! He literally walks up to your desk and talks to you, which I loved. He wants you to participate!! Don't worry about tests, we had 1 open book and a final group-project. Can't wait to take him for 2220!!
Best teacher I ever had, anything you have to say he will listen and help you, took his class summer8weeks and it was not bad just read chapters and tell him what interests u! Got an A even I got C's on all 4 of his tests! Learned slot from him he is zoo funny as well =)
Dr. Hogan is easily the best professor I have had as an undergrad student so far. He is truly passionate about the material and is respectful and laid-back. I actively participated in his class discussions more than any other class in my life. He made me want to succeed in his class, which is something I can't say about many professors. Go for it.
Dr. Hogan is one of the best professors and people I have ever met. He is inspiring and a real educator. I wish I could take him for every class in my major through til my Masters. Highly recommended!
Possibly one of the best teachers I've had in my career as a student. Very passionate about his job, very passionate about learning. If you're taking SOC 1100, make sure its with this guy.
One of the GREATEST teachers that COD has to offer. He is truly passionate about his work, and great at interacting with the class. He will give you everything that you need to succeed in the class, just make sure you show up cause he grades for attendance. Also, when he shows videos in class, DO REACTION PAPERS! He gives you extra credit for them!
Dr. Hogan is such a good teacher, I deffinatley recomend him if you are taking any sociology class. He truly cares about his students and wants everyone to succeed. I noticed that he treats all his students equally and doesnt make anyone feel uncomfortable in his class. He is so realistic and down to earth! Do the reaction papers! Love his class!
Hogan! great guy. he loves to joke around and have fun with his classes so they are enjoyable. SUPER strict on attendance, can only miss 2-3 day if you want the A. gives you everything you need to study and gives ec if you write a response to the videos he shows in class. highly recommended.
Professor Hogan is amazing. One of the best that I've ever come across at COD. He only has 2 tests throughout the entire semester and the final is a ppt. He gives you extra credit if you write a reaction paper to the movies shown in class. I loved taking a class with him! He is a lot of fun and highly recommended!
One of the best teachers I've had since my first grade teacher. Dr. Hogan cares and listens to the students thoughts and ideas rather than rewording the textbook required. He does a lot more than teach, he allowed me to explore and understand why certain things are the way they are in society.
Prof Hogan will make you think in ways you haven't before. He shows a lot of interesting videos... DO THE REACTION PAPERS. Seriously. They take like 15 minutes and will save your grade at the end of the semester. Make sure you go to every class unless you have a legitimate excuse (i.e. dr's note) or you will be penalized. Great teacher!
Professor Hogan is a good guy but a horrible professor. If you want an easy A do the easy reaction papers and you will get one. He talks about random things and I left the class only knowing that sociology is the study of the "why". He is forgetful and all over the place but a good, funny guy.
Professor Hogan is an amazing teacher, I took him for sociology 1100 and now graduated and attending UIC. Not only does he teach but he explain slowly so that everyone can understand. He continue to ask if the class understand for clarity. Good professor than some I have had at cod.
One of the best professors I have ever had. He cares so much about all of his students and tries to make the class interesting and fun! He has so many experiences that he talks about that really make you think! He wants to see all of his students succeed. He will forever be a role model in my life! Everyone needs to take a t least 1 of his classes!
I love Professor Hogan! Honestly, a great man who has a great sense of humor and really gets to the criteria. He does require reading but he just wants to have a good discussion about it. If you or the class doesn't read, he will do surprise quizzes and he will count them. Very understanding and would definitely recommend him.
Honestly one of my favorite teachers. He's so funny! His lectures are intersting and clear and he gives you the study guides before the test with the actual test questions on it. One group project plus 3 tests. Easy A if you show up and do the study guides
I took Professor Hogan this semester and I highly recommend him. He really cares about his students and he keeps you on your toes. His lectures are very interesting
Dr. Hogan is awesome. He made me feel comfortable in participating in class...I mean he would pick me to participate everyday! something i didn't do. He makes class fun! take him! Test are the same as the study guide, as long as you do them you pass the test
Dr. Hogan , is the best he keeps it real, just remember it is nor about you, you will learn a lot from this man, his class stay pack with student that really want to learn and not play. He will help and give you the tools to do well in his class in his, just follow his led and you will do fine. You have two exam and a power point in his class.
great teacher !
Took this guy for intro to soc and honestly one of the best profs i've had. he is an overall great guy. if you want to do well in class you MUST show up! attendance is mandatory. and do the readings, there will be lots of discussions. if you show up and participate you will do great. definitely take him :)
He says if you skip one class you won't pass the class. I skipped four or five times and I got an A. But, you have to do really well on the final presentation. He does not post PowerPoint on blackboard, however, he makes it clear enough so that he doesn't need to post it. Overall an excellent teacher. I loved going to his class.
Easy A. Attendance is mandatory in order to pass. The final was a group project and he was a very easy grader. 3 tests that are exactly like the study guide. Highly recommend for an easy A.
If you skip more than 3 classes you won't get the A most want. The study guides are word for word the quizzes he just only chooses 10 questions from the study guide so know it. I failed one quiz but was able to get an ending A by getting extra credit and doing well on the other two quizzes. Great and funny! He's the Kevin Hart of teaching
he is a really great, its impossible to fail his class he gives you everything like a study guide which are the exact questions on the tesst, hes funny smart and you can not miss a day cause of how good he is.
Dr. Hogan is honestly one of my favorite professors I've ever had. He is such a goof ball and cares about everyone's opinion in class. His lectures get you thinking and will randomly call on people for opinions on the subject. I would love to take another class of his. Tests are incredibly easy. Word for word from the study guide. Loved him.
GREAT and funny teacher! Makes class fun and entertaining and easy to understand with great lectures. Highly recommend!
Dr. Hogan is so amazing and so caring, it's an easy A. very interesting lectures and discussions, he is one of my favorite professors. Highly Recommended!!!
pretty cool guy
Tests are memorizing 20 vocab words off Quizlet (and only three of). Final project sounds like a big deal, but he doesn't even use it in final grade. As he asks us the grade we got on the tests at the end then writes down that grade. Don't need the textbook at all if you use Quizlet. Smart and funny teacher, definitely recommend for easy and fun A.
Dr. Hogan is an amazing person. He does so much and it's clear he cares about his students. His class is not difficult at all. All he asks is that you read and are prepared to share your ideas in class. ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY. DO NOT SKIP,ITS THE ONLY WAY TO FAIL. Would definitely take another class from him.
Dr. Hogan is awesome! All he asks is for your participation and to show up for class. Never assigns homework. 3 tests all semster which he gives you a study guide that is exactly like the test. And then a group powerpoint at the end of the semester. Very simple
He's the best! He's super funny and if you need help just go and talk to him. Easy grader and overall easy class!
Easiest class you will ever take, Mr. Hogan is one of the funniest guys i have ever met. If you dont like sociology, take Hogan. He gives three tests that you have all the answers to. You have one group project that is super easy. I didnt learn much, but it is an easy A
Dr. Hogan is a great guy. He makes class fun. The class is fairly easy BUT his grading is VERY unfair. There are 6 assignments for the whole semester and they are each on a 20 point scale (for example: a B would be a 15/20 and a F is 0/20). Due to the minimal amount of work he gives, your only choice is to get an A on every assignment to pass.
Super funny and approachable teacher but I didn't learn anything from the class. Also, he doesn't assign much, meaning that to pass you HAVE to get A's and B's on all of the work because not a lot of points are gathered. Odd grading system that seemed to upset many people in the class. Make sure final presentation is completely memorized....
I did not enjoy Dr. Hogan's class at all. I'm sure his methods work for some students, but they did not work for me. His syllabus did not go into any specifics about dates of different tests and lectures, nor did it provide any information on assignments and group projects. His lectures are straight from the book, bar some class discussion.
Dr Hogan is a nice a man but not a very helpful teacher. You can tell he knows his stuff, but doesn't do a good job at explaining it to the class. We'll ask questions about our study guide but he doesn't want to "guide our thoughts". We're obviously asking because we need help and he just doesn't give it which is extremely frustrating.
Dr Hogan's hilarious, loud, and energetic. 3 exams (study guides are basically the test), one group project for the final. the lectures aren't too bad, during class discussions he calls on random people for their opinions.. and sometimes ends class early after a discussion. only one reaction paper to a movie we saw in class. overall, easygoing guy.
Terry Hogan is an amazing professor. I have taken two of his courses and passed with flying colors in them. He is extremely nice and respectful and we discuss important matter and I was ALWAYS interested in what he had to say. Very easy class theres is about 2-3 tests but he gives a study guide and you can find all the answers on quiz let, no hw !
Please do not take this teacher. His entire class is out of 100 points, while his tests are graded on a 100 point scale. Test 3 was only out of 20 questions so a few wrong gets you a B. He lectures almost everyday but the tests are based off a study guide which requires you to find answers from a textbook. Almost none of what he lectures is on test
Terry Hogan, funny guy, nice guy, but I'm warning you, his grading system is wonky. His class is seriously test heavy, and if you fail one of the three, you're in murky waters, my friend. You absolutely need to show up to class, no exceptions. His tests aren't hard by any means if you take the time to do the study guides. Few extra credit papers.
Amazing prof he kept the doors open for opinions & thoughts of all kind. He challenged us to looked through perspectives other than our own. It was a very eyeopening & fun class. Only complaint I had was I was getting an A in the class & was marked absent by mistake. He said he'd change it but forgot so i lost points which downed my grade to a B ):
He was a great professor. Very funny and understanding guy. His class wasn't hard at all to me however, it's important to do well on the tests. He doesn't give much homework except we had to do few reaction papers. Your whole grade is basically based off your tests. The tests aren't very hard as long as you do the study guide. Overall easy class.
As far as the class, it's easy. Four take home exams, no homework (just read the book, seriously), one extra credit reaction paper, attendance is mandatory, and a final group presentation. As far as Hogan, as a professor, he's okay. He gets a bit "in your face" and thinks he's hilarious. I would recommend taking a different professor.
Dr. Hogan is absolutely wonderful! He's honestly one of the BEST professors at COD. When it comes to his class, do the work and you'll pass. Book isn't needed, all test answers can be found online and he gives answers to the first 2 exams, the third exam you're on your own but it's 20 questions multiple choice. Highly recommend him for an easy A!
Such a good teacher, loves to talk to his students and get to know them. The class was very straight forward. Read and take notes and you pass. Very funny and caring teacher, if I could I would take him for every class
I've taken this professor twice because he is awesome. The class is based on lectures and all you have to do is take notes. The notes match with the three tests he gives, and the questions come from your notes. Easy class if you show up. Few extra credit opportunities. As long as you show up and try, you will do fine.
The class is out of 100 points. It's worth A LOT to be there since the total is little points, 3 absences are free, then 5% off each time, if you miss often don't take it you'll fail. There's 3 test, 20 points each, easy enough to do good if you study tbh, no homework to turn in just to read, we talk and share stories daily so you got to be openn.
Professor Hogan is a nice guy thats about it, when it comes to his class it shouldnt be difficult; but due to his policy it is. The class is out of 100 points. 3 test and a final. I took his 7:00 a.m class, 5 minutes to get to class or he would lock you out and deduct 5 points. For the final there are no clear expectations. Keep searching.
I just finish Dr. Hogan 7:00 a.m. class and it was wonderful. His instructions and expectations are very clear, he repeats over and over again throughout the entire semester what is expected of us as students. Yes, he has a five min. grace period, but he still let's you in after the 5 min. One of the most caring professor I know. Good semester!
Professor Hogan was really caring and hes so funny! All you have to do is show up to class, take a few notes and use your textbook to look for answers on the study guides, its an easy A.
Professor Hogan is an awesome teacher. SOC1100 consists of 3 tests, two of which he gives you study guides with answers for, and the last one he gives you a study guide and you have to find the answers. Also the final is a group project. Hogan makes this class easy but YOU HAVE TO SHOW UP!!!! ATTENDANCE IS WORTH 20 points out of 100.
Professor Hogan was one of my favorite instructors at COD. He really wants to get to know his students and make sure you guys are enjoying class while youre there. If you show up, do the work, You should enjoy this course. One group project at the end of the semester so make friends with the people around you!
He kept it real, he also took the time to make sure his class understood everything! Super funny and caring! Had a personal professional relationship!!
I am currently taking his class and I can say that I am very unhappy for many reasons. Hogan is a great person, but not a good teacher at all! He doesn't explain anything. He expects you to figure it out on your own and know how to get an A. He locks you out after 5 mins grace period. He doesn't know his students names even if you meet 3x a week.
That isn't true, I am taking him now and he explain everything, he is so funny and wonderful. I will take another class with him if I can.
Professor Hogan has good lectures and he keep it real. He gives you three test and group presentation, fairly easy class. Recommend his course. HILARIOUS
Prof. Hogan is a nice person, but he fails to explain assignments clearly. Ex., most students are confused on what to do for a group project- which your final grade depends on, due to his vague expectations. He claims he doesn't want to "guide your thought"... well he doesn't guide you at all. I don't recommend this for someone who likes structure.
Dr. Hogan is a very funny guy and is passionate about the subject. Attendance is mandatory, but there is rarely a boring class. This isn't a complete blow-off class. You will need to study for the tests and do the projects, but outside of that there is almost no homework. Don't miss class. If you need a sociology credit, take Dr. Hogan.
Hogan was a bit unclear at times, but altogether if you put in the work in the class it was an easy A/B . Only a few assignments and you had to study and do well on all the tests, and make sure you were prepared for the group presentation. Inspiring professor, just be prepared to stay after class and ask him questions one on one for clarity.
Considering the professors I had this semester, good guy. Just ask for clarity, he is always open to explaining whatever you feel uncomfortable with.
He has interesting lectures and adds humor to make it fun. However he does not use blackboard and you have no idea what kind of grade you have until the very end. The grades in his class primarily are based on attendance, 3 exams and a final project. The final group project at the end was unclear, and he did not provide an outline or a rubric.
Dr. Hogan is an amazing person! He is super kind & really cares about his students. If you take the time to chat with him he will make the class super fun for you. I highly recommend 10/10 I wish I could take him for every single class. You have to study but as long as it somewhat interests you it's not a big deal. Show up & do extra credit!
Amazing professor! He cares about each and every student. He'll make sure you pass with an A!
Dr. Hogan is AMAZING!!!!!! He made the class really enjoyable and sparked interesting discussions during lectures. BE SURE TO GET THERE ONTIME as he locks the door at the start of class! Also make sure that you get into a good group for the final project because it accounts for 20% of your course grade :)
Professor Hogan was a great professor. Stern but great. very passionate about his teaching. big group project at the end. Take him
Professor Hogan is such a great person to have for a 7 AM class. He's hilarious and makes you feel welcome. That being said, when he says to read a chapter, READ IT. He'll probably ask about it the next class meeting. If you do everything he says, it will be an easy A.
He's a good teacher, very passionate about his profession, however when it comes to final project there is not much instruction on what he's looking for. Be prepared to work on it the first day, because if you don't do a good job he'll let you know it!!! take home study guides for test If you take time to do it little work, you'll get an A
A really a great, great professor.
He's not clear in his directions. He uses very high vocabulary that not many people understand. There are few tests and assignments - they are exactly like the lecture. TAKE GOOD NOTES for projects and tests!!
Professor Hogan is such a great person to have for a 7 AM class. He's hilarious and makes you feel welcome. That being said, when he says to read a chapter, READ IT. He'll probably ask about it the next class meeting. If you do everything he says, it will be an easy A. gives study guide and the exam is just from there. Take Him
This class taught me so much about myself
Dr. Hogan has been one of my favorite professors. He is super funny and brings so much life to the class, he genuinely values education and cares about each and every student. Only three super easy multiple choice tests and practically gives you all of the answers to the first two, he is strict on attendance though, Highly recommend Dr. Hogan.
Dr. Hogan has been one of the worst professors I have ever taken. On his last test he doesn't tell you he sets a threshold and if you don't hit it he gives you a 0 on the test until you find yourself stunned at the end when he drops your grade two letters and refuses to help. He just makes you feel worse and degrades you.
The best teacher/professor I have ever had in my whole life, he cares so much about his students, the material is quality and he makes everything we talk about fun, lots of opportunity for extra credit and the 3 tests throughout the semester are clearly outlined with study guides.
Prof Hogan is an interesting guy and would have really liked him more in-person. We need to buy a online text with launchpad and there is one chapter due for each week - 10 question open book quiz and one discussion post. That is it - do your job and easy A. He gives extra credit end of the sem too. Clear grading criteria!
Dr. Hogan is a really funny guy and he really made this semester fun for me. Overall the work is pretty easy as you just show up to zoom meetings, read a section on Mindtap each week, watch some videos, participate in the discussion boards, and then take a ten-question quiz. Repeat these steps every week and you should finish with an easy A.
I enjoyed this class and would retake it! Precise grading with accessible quizzes. Just make sure you do the discussion boards; that's where a lot of points come in. Also, make sure you do textbook assignments. Never skip them! Though you have to read, it's not bad because the textbook is online, so you can sit and have it read out loud.
I had him for net classes so never got to see him but his workload is bareable. It's the same process every week so I've got use to it and you get used to it. It's open book for the quizzes which makes it easier to get an A. It takes over an hour to do the reading but it really helps for the quizzes.
Dr. Hogan has amazing and stimulating lectures! As long as you do your assignments on time and study you will do amazing! He definitely sets his students up for success and cares about how well his students are understanding the material needed for the tests. His lectures are inspirational and he has such an amazing personality even in online class
