very interesting man. loves to talk. take notes and pay attention.
class is student directed all you do is share your ideas, about 5 2 page papers and 1 15 page paper are you grade
Nice guy, but SO weird. One day we had class outline and he climbed a tree and swung from the branches. Also tends to sing and dance while teaching.
SOOOO easy; multiple choice exams; interesting lectures
he is really nice and funny. he is a good teacher. the class was very interesting. the test are easy and he gives a review sheet.
If you're looking for a professor who WON'T put you to sleep, Dr. Segady is definitely someone you want to make room for in your schedule. While there may be plenty to study for each exam, none of the material is vague and there are no trick questions.
Excellent professor. He teaches the material well and makes sure that everyone understands. He reviews you for the tests and they are easy if you study the review sheet. TAKE HIM!!!
He is a wonderful teacher, can't say enough. He teaches well and gets his point across. Very funny and nice. Take him!
This teacher was great and the class was very easy if u just go to class and pay attention. I say its an easy A or B.
he is a great teacher and knows how to explain things to where you can understand. he gives a review for his test which help out alot. his test are easy and he is very funny!!!!
Awesome teacher, funny guy, very clear, and easy to talk to, never gets mad, never gets annoying and he's great about letting you out early when he's done w/ the lecture. Easy A or B
What a sweetheart! Introduce yourself and make friends; he's the kind of guy you can talk to if you ever need advice. I loved his class and would recommend it to anyone. You'll want to get out of bed for this one!
This guy is great! He's the coolest professor I've had. He's very clear with his material, he understands what he's teaching, has great examples, and the tests are multiple guess. THIS ISN'T A BLOW OFF CLASS, but who would want to blow it off anyways?
he's awesome! he cares about his students and is always willing to help you out. great office hours; go by and talk to him during the first few weeks of class. never vague; gives reviews; never in a bad mood; very interesting personality!
Awesome professor. Knows his stuff, and very friendly. He'll learn your name, and encourages participation in class. Has good reviews. Best elective to take. I highly recommend Dr. Segady.
Need to study for the first test b/c it can catch you off guard if you try not to do the readings and breeze through, great teacher, one of the easiest and most fun professors at this school, likes to go off of stories but some are interesting
he is the best. his goofy jokes will make you remember things pretty well on test. he is soo funny and he does not take attendance!
True or False: Segady is the best professor SFA has ever seen? TRUE! This is a class to wake up for my friends. Very interesting material coupled with a very entertaining professor is the best combination to introduce you to sociology.
awesome and makes it fun.... take this class whether you need it or not!
Take his if you are on probation and make sure you go to his SI everytime they meet funny cool teacher
take this teacher b/c he is great u dont have to study hard 4 tests if u attend class all the time. doesn't check attendance and make the subject fun to learn. his class is one class u will miss if u dont attend b/c it is fun!
he is the greatest teacher! i have him early in the morning but his classes are so interesting that i stay awake! he always makes you laugh and you actually feel like you have learned something everytime you leave his class!! great teacher!! TAKE HIM!!!
This class is a must! Dr. Segady is one of the best teachers I have ever had. He makes class fun and interesting. He is never in a bad mood and is always willing to help you! Tests are not hard if you go to class, but you won't have a problem going because he makes it fun!
He is an awesome teacher. He is fun to be around and a very interesting person. If you pay attention in class and read the book you should do fine in his class. I recommend you take his class.
He is a very interesting teacher, and he makes the class go alot faster with his delivery. He has made me interested in a subject that I really didn't care about before. His tests are pretty straightforward, but can still be a little tough. Despite this, I'd definitely take his class again.
took him for intro to soc. good teacher. makes info. interesting but tests can be worded a little difficult, so far making a B (by studying the night before).
He is a very good teacher and he is very helpful!! He makes the class better than what it is. and he does NOT take attendance. Test are pretty easy and they come from the lecture and you do not really need the book because he covers EVERYTHING in lecture. NO quizzes! He is the BEST teacher!!
He is an awesome teacher! I thought i was going to skip this class a lot because it seemed like a blow off class, plus he doesn't take attendance. But I didn't miss a day, the class is great! TAKE IT!!!!!
this was a great class. Dr. Segady really knows his stuff and he makes it interesting. Test are easy. He tells you what will be on each test and there are only 4 of them. No Pop Quizzes. Final is not comprehensive. Take this class!!!
This is a very funny man. He makes you want to come to class. You can pass off of the notes, but you might want to also go to si class. Easy class. Take him.
LOVED HIM!!! Just study your notes and you will do good! He makes you want to come to class! He is a funny man and keeps you interested. I had a 9 clock class and I never got close to falling asleep!! I HIGHLY recommend him! It is also an easy class
I loved this class! You should definately never pass up an oportunity to take one of his classes. He's by far the best professor I've taken so far. He always comes in with a smile and he really keeps you interested in teh material. I would definately recommend taking his class!:)
Great teacher! Thought it would be boring but it wasn't. You can pass without reading the book, but you better read it if you want an A. Likes T/F questions. Would recommend
he is a great teacher
Highly Recomended!!! His class is GREAT and he is very helpful.
really nice guy really works with everybody. the papers are kinda.... just turn in something guarntee to pass. tests come from notes and open note/book tests. do not pass up the opportunity to take his class. the best soc prof at SFA.
I had Dr. Segady for my Soc 137 class and again for Sociology of Religion this semester. Take this class! The tests are short, the essay questions are very straight forward and the class is an absolute blast. He brings in lots of guest speakers and uses lots of movies and documentaries.
i took him for intro to sociology, and he was the easist and most interesting teacher that i have ever had. just go to class and he will entertain u the whole time that u r in there. which on some days, was only 30min. if i could take him again for another class, i would. EASY A
This is by far the best teacher at SFA...he is very informative and very helpful. If you need any help at all find a way to make it to the SI groups and you will be fine
Hey, this class is the best! He is really helpful, he keeps everything interesting and fun! The SI...Kim is really cool too! She makes it understandable and clears up any questions just like Dr. Segady. They are both great and he is a wonderful teacher that actually knows what the hell he is talking about! Finally someone does know what's going on!!!!
He's really helpful and straight forward. He gives a review for each test. The tests are easy if you do the review. Super nice and makes the class interesting.
One of the best professors I have ever had. He made it fun and interesting, I definately think he is an asset to the dept. RECOMMEND!!!
He is really a great professor..he teaches in a way that everyone can understand. everything he writes on the board you need to know and its not a lot. he also gives out review sheets that are exactly on the test. you dont use to book much most of his test are from lecture. and he is really funny which makes his class really interesting
he is by far my favorite professor. he makes learning fun and he is so funny. he makes you want to go to class every day and his tests are exactly what are on his review sheets. He is amazing and i highly recommend him
Dr. Segady is very hilarious and makes the class very enjoyable. Gives you a review sheet before each test that tells you EXACTLY what will be on the test. You dont really need the book, about 90% of the test comes from lecture. I'd highly recommend taking his class.
I loved Dr. Segady! He was my absolute favorite teacher this term! He will get distracted in class by things like the Wal-Mart song, but it makes the class interesting. Go by his office to talk to him and he help you with anything. His tests are fairly easy and if you go to SI you won't have a problem. He is very funny! I highly recomend him!
great teacher. made an A. learned a ton. take him for an intensive writing class. you wont regret it.
Really good proffesor! He makes his lectures really interesting. He relates his lectures to his students so they are more interesting. Easy tests! Just study his review the night before and you'll be fine!
The coolest Professor I have ever had. Take him. He makes the lectures interesting and gives out a good review before every test. But dont buy the book for the class, its $50 and it wont do you any good reading it, plus it is boring.
you will never forget these classes!
nice teacher
GREAT TEACHER! His lectures keep you very interested and the tests are fairly easy if you take good notes.
Really gets involved with the students, so expect to do some talking. Acts like anything his students say is the most profound thing he's ever heard - it's great for your esteem. All round nice guy. Don't buy the sociology textbook, he gives out a review and answers any questions you may have. All our tests were in short answer format.
One of the BEST professors I've ever had! He keeps you awake and is very intelligent. He gives out great reviews before the test and if you study them you'll do just fine. You don't really need your textbook. I pulled off a high B without it. I would highly recommend him.
Funny guy. Test are pretty easy, I never went and made a high B in the class. I used my book, but then again thats how I studied for my test.
I took Dr. Segady's honors Intro. to Sociology Fall '06 and loved it. I got an A. I can give a better rating of his class as I am now his SI leader. For his current class: you can get by without the book, but he does use more info from it than most of these ratings tell you. If you attend the SI review before the test, you won't need it at all.
I absolutely love Professor Segady! He is simply an amazing professor. He's able to keep your attention on Sociology and make the course interesting. His stories make for interesting discussion, and always pertain to the lesson. The class is mostly lecture, but you should follow along in your book and study it, too, for the tests.
Dr. Segady is simply amazing. he gets very into class and he WILL make you laugh at least once a day. he is very easy to understand and is very easy to talk to. he has the funniest stories and makes sociology VERY interesting... TAKE HIM!!!! the absolute best professor at SFA!!!! i wish all of my prof's were like him. super funny and way nice..
Dr. Segady is the best professor!! He is very funny and he keeps the lectures interesting. The tests are like 10 T/F questions and the rest (like 30 or 40) are multiple choice. He is real easy... Phoenix is my SI leader and she's great!! She really helps alot, and everything comes from lecture. I didnt buy the book. I highly recommmend him!!
really overrated teacher..
He's a great teacher! He makes his lectures funny & he cares about his students! The class itself is not hard & you'll the tests as long as you DO & STUDY the review sheet!
WAY OVERRATED! He has a very positive personality and is extremely funny but as far as a professor goes. He kind kinda be lazy. He doesnt give very GOOD reviews. Sometimes the same word will be on the review five times. No extra credit. Attendance doesnt count and thats a bad thing. If you want to make a good grade. Go to class. SI's. cheat.
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS REVIEW SHEETS ARE VERY INACCURATE AND CLASSES ARE RANDOM AND UNORGANIZED
Dr. Segady is a great professor. He gives good reviews and the SI helps tremendously. He doesnt give great notes but if you just pay attention its not hard. I barely studied for the tests and made As and Bs on them. He is a funny guy too. He wants his students to do well and he always says to come to him for help w/ anything. Take him!!
He is a wonderful teacher, he is fun and always happy!!! He basically hands out a study guide for his tests that has everything that will show up on the test. It is fun to go to class although you can deff make it by without going all the time!!! He loves to help people and interested in what everyone has to say!!
Awesome!!!! I enjoyed his classes! Highly Recommend!:)
take him, you're guaranteed to pass. very funny, interesting lectures, you learn a lot. tests are multiple choice, t/f, very easy. i didn't open my text book once and i made a B, but i had a friend with the book, and if i needed to i just looked up terms online
Dr. Segady is by far my favorite teacher in a long time. He is extremely helpful and always makes lecture fun and interesting. Hes a funny man who teaches with enthusiasm. Gives review for EVERY test which helps and is very accurate. Attendance is not mandatory but test is based on lecture. I didnt open the book once and i still made very high grad
AWESOME PROFESSORRRRR!!! i loved his intro class. Gives reviews before each test, and usually always has an SI group. He's super nice and tells stories and shows many videos in class. Attendance isnt taken but do go to class. if you take him you wont regret it =]
Dr. Segady is AMAZING! His classes are the most interesting and fun ever, he makes you think and I always learn a lot from him.
Prof.Segady is awesome!! I was already interested in sociology before his class but he made me love it so much more I made it my minor. He is a great guy. Most of the test questions come from stuff that he says during lecture. Even though its not mandatory to go to class, it would be smart to go. You won't regret taking him. He's excellent! One of
The world's nicest man, no joke. Always pleasant, smiling, helpful and always willing/wanting to talk with his students. Lectures have depth while being easy going and well explained. Test are essay format, which may scare some people, but he grades fairly and if he knows you know the general concept of what you're explaining, you'll be fine.
Dr. Segady is the nicest guy you can meet. The class has a perfect blend of depth/material and class participation. I never once used the book and he pretty much gives you the test as a review the day before the actual test. He does have a SI, which again goes over the test. Easiest A you can make at SFA. Highly recommended.
Cool guy. Great class. Smarter than he will ever let you know.
They don't call him, "St. Segady" for nothing! Here is an incredibly intelligent, dedicated and passionate professor discussing the topic he, although won't admit it, cares most about. He is in his element in this course, more so than in anything else he teaches, which says a LOT! If you are a Soc major, take Soc. of Religion. You won't be sorry!
He was so helpful!!! He always had a big smile on his face! I really enjoyed his class! If you have the chance to take him DO!
I loved his class!! he is so interesting and funny! and he interacts with you and is willing to help you get the grade you need! TAKE TAKE TAKE
I love segady he is a kool professor. This class was easy as h-e-l-l if you got to S.I. the session before the test. He is very funny and attendance is not mandatory. He gives extra credit. If you have to take sociology take him if you want a blow off class. He is a good teacher his test are hard if you dont study.
He was an excellent teacher. Very encouraging and helpful.
He is a great professor. He knows exactly what he is talking about and enjoys talking about it. He interacts with the group and his tests are super easy if you attend class and pay attention. AWESOME TEACHER. SUPER GREAT!!
He seems really easy at first, but his notes are all over the place and he is hard to understand. I suggest not missing class and attending the SI because she is more helpful then he is. Plus his tests are really hard
Professor Segady is awesome. He obviously loves this subject and he really cares about getting to know his students. HOWEVER. This class is not an "easy A." You HAVE to study because his lectures are always all over the place. You have to put forth effort, but you're in college, you should already expect that. Go to SI's, they help tremendously.
Very understanding and fun to take. He is especially considerate to parents going to school opening inviting me to bring my son to class if I needed to.
Mr. Segady was great. Definitely would take him again if I ever had to take anything even remotely to do with sociology. Class wasn't bad at all because he tells stories constantly (interesting stories) and plays videos and clips a lot. You dont have to read the book, and you can make a B. An A would probably require you to read some of it.
He is the sweetest man ever! His class is super easy! Gives a review before every test, and as long as you know it, you'll be golden! He is great! TAKE HIM!
Professor Segady is the nicest man & so laid back. his class was super easy. Relates his lecture to real world situations so it is very easy to understand & remember. He also uses a lot of very interesting movies to show real world examples. Gives very detailed reviews not only before exams but throughout the entire lecture. Would take him again
Sweetest man I know I would definitely advise anyone to take him. His class is super easy you watch a lot of movies and the reviews cover the entire test.
Professor Segady made my early sociology class a lot more enjoyable! He's nutty and makes learning seem like fun. He'll bring up a bunch of different sociology experiments and shows videos. 10 out of 10 I recommend!
I loved taking him. His class was easy as long as you showed up. Lectures would take all class but you only take like a half page of notes. Test were east. I'd take him again because I enjoyed the class that much. He also shows videos in class but you usually will never get to see the end. Textbook is not mandatory as long as you pay attention.
Easy, he gives a review, haves a SI and is kinda interesting, cool teacher
he is an amazing professor. If someone said his class is boring they lied. His lecture are so interesting to me.
He is seriously one of the nicest professors on this campus. It is almost impossible to fail his class, and his lectures are all very interesting. The book would have been helpful, but I never bought it and I did just fine. He seriously is a great guy!
