I enjoy Beaver's class. Seems to go over the book well and give good notes. A little weird, but funny.

class was easy, don't know what everyone else is talking about...

WOAH is this man on fire or what?! GREAT classes with great long, dry lectures. Very classy gentleman who knows his stuff! WAY TO GO, billy!

Hard tests, but if you go to class, take notes, and study from notes and book, it's not as bad. You do have to do some work tho to get a good grade.

He's got a dry sense of humor. Most stupid college kids don't get it. But I think he's awesome. If you take everything really seriously or have a stick up your arse, or if you're just stupid or self involved, don't take him.

Beaver's a classy guy. Interesting lectures, but you have to study if you want to get a good grade. You all should try studying sometime. Maybe you'll learn something.

One of the best. Take NOTES, LISTEN, and just do the little reading and tiny assinments he asks and you'll get a 100% in the class. He's clearly very intelligent so he's always up for a debate or discussion. Don't be afraid to voice your opinions. He listens. The class was a good time!!

Excellent speaker and refreshing sense of humor, however his tests are not clearly based enough on the assigned readings. Why did I buy this book if it's not helping me get good grades? I'm a straight A student and now I have a B in this class. Go figure.

study

Interesting class, but you have to go. If you dont go you wont pass. His tests are right from his notes, not the book, so dont buy it! He makes the class fun, and it is a great elective to take! only 3 tests and 2 papers, and not hard! Take him.

I liked his class

A great class, I have taken him twice before. He is a very entertaining teacher who also has great stories that make it easier to understand the class. Just take notes and pay attention to what he says and you are set with a good grade.

great class. take it

Very funny guy, not nearly as hard as most people say. Go to class and he writes most notes for you and read the chapters (they are short) and you'll do fine on the tests. Easy to contact if you need to also.

I really liked his class. He's an interesting person to listen to, and he seems very intelligent. He also has a funny sense of humor and tells amusing stories (and they're actually relevant to sociology). Seriously, I would occasionally write down some of the things he said in my notes, word for word, just because they were that priceless.

Nice personality. Keeps the class interesting. But his test are nothing abouit what he talks about. Reading the book is a MUST to pass his class.

Good teacher, funny guy. Makes class interesting.

He wasn't too bad. He had a dry sense of humor, which I liked. His tests are all MC and T/F. There is little room for error, but I think most people gots B's.

Not a good teacher to take if you want a high GPA, but knows stuff. Tests are garbage.

Good teacher, good class, but you have to work

Took him for American Social Problems after his Intro to Soc and it was basically the same class only a little more in depth. Tests are worded oddly and are tricky. Just pay attention and study the theories and you'll be set.

he is a very very very good teacher. you will enjoy his class, and he will keep you up. Class is easy if you study for the test (which is not hard at all).

If you don't try in college or you don't want to learn anything, don't take him. He is very interesting (even if you aren't interested in soci) and he teaches you a lot. I just paid attention in class and got an A.

Very interesting class...pay attention! He has a lot of good stories. But the tests are hard, YOU HAVE TO STUDY if you want a good grade. Take notes and use the book and your good.

Great class

I thought the class was pretty good. Just study some.

Really good class if you want to learn something.

This class is easy as long as you pay attention to him. He allows you to use his past tests to study from. If you fail it means you should probably just drop out of college.

If you actually pay attention and take time to study notes AND the book for this class, you'll be fine. He's only hard if you don't try. He's very interesting and knows a lot about his subject.

One of the most enjoyable classes ever. Had a few debates, which were not fun, but he is one of the best professors I've had. Take notes in his class, because that is what is found on the test. His quizzes are true/false and his tests are multiple choice, but they are both very difficult. Study your notes!

Don't sit in the front or he'll be all over you. Personally I didn't think he was as bad as some people say he is.

I enjoyed professor Beaver. He's a nice guy and has a lot of knowledge on the topic. The tests can be a little bit hard though. He can be a little strange in class but he's also really nice.

Interesting class. Teacher was well informed. Study for tests.

Class was interesting. I was able to pay attention everyday. Beaver is nice and not boring but his tests are pretty hard. I would recommend him if his tests were not so hard but because they are, I would try to take another teacher for Sociology if you want a good grade.

Good teacher. Never hard to pay attention- keeps it interesting and tells jokes. Only had three quizzes and two exams. Got to study hard for both, but as long as you put some time into looking over notes, you'll get a great grade. If you don't remember well at all, avoid. Otherwise, take him.

He gives you all the information you need to know, but you still have to read the book. Gives very hard tests, but quizzes are easy. Also, he says "you follow me" after every sentence and has some good jokes.

A great teacher. He is very experienced in his field. He has all the notes on the board before class. During class he tells stories relevant to the information. The stories really stick and become useful on the test. The tests were somewhat difficult. Def a teacher that cares about his students.

He's a very helpful teacher. Puts in his two cents' worth, and has a lot of good personal experience to help make some points clear. Tests and quizzes weren't bad. He even has older versions in the library for you to study from. Definitely recommend!

Good class and interesting discussions but you have to study for the tests.

Thought the class was pretty good. The teacher was interesting and not boring. Tests are sort of hard but not that bad.

Professor Beaver is an amazing professor. His lectures are super intriguing and easy to follow. His tests are a little hard, but as long as you read from the book and study your notes, you should be fine. I would absolutely take him again.

The class was really good . He gives good examples. Just study for the tests.

I took Dr. Beaver for Sociology in Sport. His tests are relatively easy. He writes all the notes on the whiteboard before class starts. His handwriting is terrible but everything he writes & talks about is on the test. No study guides but he will give you 4 questions & pick one to be an essay on the test. Doing hw assignments + studying easy A

He is one of those professors you other like or hate. Lectures are very good. 3rd class with him . You have to take additional notes, (not just what he writes on the board). Super intelligent on a number of subjects. If you like sports & history this was a great class. Just pay attention. He will not let you use your computer in his classes.

Professor Beaver gives great lectures and keeps class interesting with surveys, videos, and assignments. Only thing is that he never puts anything online, so make sure you pay attention to what he assigns in class. Exams are straightforward as long as you study.
