Professor Farrar is the best administration of justice professor at msjc. As long as you show up to class you will pass. He gives 3 tests plus a final, however before he gives out the test and final he reviews the material that will be on the test. He also gives a midterm paper super easy. The only way you can fail this class is if you try to fail.
I had Professor Farrar for 3 other AJ classes and he his easily the easiest AJ professor at msjc. His type of teaching makes learning fun and easy. He has so many stories because he's been apart of law enforcement for over 25 years. He is a ex chief of police for Rialto and knows what he's talking about. Just show up to class and you will pass.
I have taken several of Professor Farrar's AJ classes. He is easy to understand and makes sure that you understand what was presented. He is super funny and has lot's of great stories that help you learn. I would recommend his classes to anyone. He also reviews the material regularly, including providing handouts in some of his classes.
I have had a few classes with Professor Farrar and he is pretty cool. He has been in law enforcement for like 35 years so he has great stuff to share. He reviews a lot and in some cases he will provide a study guide. He usually gives 4 tests and a written mid-term paper. He is also super funny and I learned alot!
I took Professor Farrar for AJ102 and it was a fun class. He is easy to follow and makes sure that you understand the subject matter. He is also very funny and has lots of interesting stories. His teaching style makes it easy to learn.
I was in Professor Farrar's 103 class and it was fun. We did a lot of hands on activities and learned many things. He also reviews the material so that you are better prepared for tests. His lectures are also cool and he does have a lot of stories that help you learn.
I am in Professor Farrar's AJ101 Law class. The class is pretty fast paced but you really learn. Lectures are real good and as an added bonus, he sometimes gives out Starbucks cards if you can get 100% on a test. Professor Farrar really makes class fun and I plan on taking other classes he teaches.
I am an older student just getting back into college. I have taken two of Mr. Farrar's classes (so far) and have found them to be very informative. His teaching style is thorough but fun - meaning he makes sure you get what he is talking about. He also helped me when it came to the writing assignment. Very patient and that was good for me.
I am currently in Professor Farrar's class. While the class covers a lot of information and you need to pay attention, he make sure that you understand everything. His lectures are funny and taking his class makes me want to be an officer even more. I wish he was teaching in the summer - I plan on taking more classes with him.
Best ever! Funny lectures and awesome stories. I plan on taking more of these courses.
This was an excellent class. I never thought that law was easy to learn, but Professor Farrar made it that way. He explains topics and reviews materials, and also hands out study guides. His lectures are super funny and he challenges you to learn. Hope to take more AJ classes.
I was in Professor Farrar's Juvenile Procedures class and it was great. He really does have many stories to tell and he brings in several guest speakers. Professor Farrar also provides a study guide that helped me study, and also helped with the chapter tests. We did a few group projects but the best part is the winners sometimes got Starbucks!
I took AJ102 last semester and it was a great class. Professor Farrar is an excellent teacher who takes the time to explain things. He was very helpful by providing students with guidance on careers, and also let us know about job fairs and other recruitment efforts going on. Professor Farrar was very informative and he had awesome stories.
Professor Farrar is awesome. His lectures keep you laughing and he has many stories. I know he cares about the students because he always took time to help us fill out applications and study for interviews. He even passed out job flyers and career day stuff so we could attend these events.
I am currently in Professor Farrar's AJ 111 class and it is awesome! He is super funny and his lectures are easy to follow. He does offer extra credit and is very willing to help you if you have problems. Others must feel the same because his classes are always full.
I have taken several online classes, but this one is by far the best. Super organized and easy to follow. Professor Farrar puts a lot of information out there for students. All assignments are located in weekly folders. He includes audio lectures, videos, articles, discussion boards, recruitment info and more. Check it out!
This is an excellent class! This guy is a former Police Chief and he knows his stuff. He is funny and gets the whole class involved. I am taking several of his classes.
Amazing professor, he is seriously great at what he does. He's always willing to help everyone. He makes the class fun, I have had about 3 or 4 classes with him throughout two semesters & honestly he is the best professor I've had.
This is best online class ever! Professor Farrar posts lots of information which makes class interesting, even though its online. He is also very good at sending out reminders and making sure we stay on track.
This is the most informative class I have ever had. I want to be in law enforcement even more now. Professor Farrar is willing to help you with study habits, ways to take a test, and more. He updates you on assignments and is very motivating in the classroom.
Best ever! You have to take this guys classes!
This is the third class I have taken with professor Farrar and he is great. I like the way he teaches and reviews the information. I also think he does a great job relating the topics to real life calls and situations. This way, we learn how it actually applies as a police officer.
Best ever!
This is a great class. Guest speakers and awesome lectures too. Professor Farrar take the time to work with students on test prep, written assignments, and also job prep. He is working with several students on how to become a police officer.
Professor Farrar is amazingly accomplished, personable, makes lecture fun, testing is Easy to prepare for the test is the material taught and is all in the book. He answers all questions and provides an abundance of opportunity outside his classes. Awesome professor!
This is the best online class I have taken. Everything is organized into weekly folders including all assignments. Professor Farrar also does audio-lectures so you can follow along this way. He offers extra credit and is always keeping you aware of due dates and other stuff. I am going to take another of his online classes.
Professor Farrar is a great teacher. He always takes the time to go over information and his presentations are awesome. He make learning very interesting and fun, but he also challenges you to think about things. He does a lot of hands on learning which really helps students put things into context.
So this was my first online class and it was great. Professor Farrar organizes everything so its very easy to find things. He does the regular power-point thing, but he also does a "voice over" power-point so he walks you through the slides talking about each subject. He offers extra credit and returns your emails right away. Great class!
Professor Farrar's class is the best. He is very funny and his lectures are informative. He reviews the information so its easy to remember topics and he reviews before each exam. Professor Farrar brings in guest speakers and also uses video and props to create a more hands on type class.
I just finished AJ106 and it was a great class. Professor Farrar knows his stuff. He is very informative and helps you understand the juvenile process, which is not easy. He covers a lot of information and also has interesting guest speaker from probation, children's services and the gang unit. He also gives out a study guide.
Professor Farrar has been one of the best professors I have taken at MSJC by far. If you get to know him personally he will help you pursue your career in criminal justice just as he has helped me. He is very blunt and straight forward with talking about the good and bad that comes with pursuing a career in Crim. You wont regret taking it him!
This was an excellent class. We covered many topics and they were all very interesting. Professor Farrar is very easy to understand and he takes the time to talk to the students. He is funny, has lot of stories, and he knows what he is talking about. I really like the fact we discuss current events in class. Easy "A" if you do the work.
This was a great online class. Professor Farrar keeps things very organized and the course is easy to follow. He provides an audio version of the lecture along with a study outline that really helps. The lectures contain a lot of information but he makes t easy to follow and fun.
Best class ever. I was not sure how a community policing class could be really good, but this one is great. Professor Farrar teaches in a way that is easy to understand. He is funny but also knows what he is talking about. I would take any class he teaches.
The best professor msjc has . Farrar, teaches verbally, visually, and is very hands on. He wants his students to succeed. His class is very well structured and organozed. This is my 2nd class with him, and I have to say this is THE best profess or here.
By far the best professor I've had at msjc ! easy A just study for your test . I've taken 4 of his classes and I'm glad I did . You won't regret taking his class !
I loved taking AJ 101 with Professor Farrar. He make all the assignments clear and sends out announcements every week reminding student of the assignments due. Also he post his lecture online which is very helpful. Also he makes sure to let everyone know if you have any questions to contact him. He is a great teacher.
Professor Farrar's class online is great. He gives you more than enough information and is very clear about assignments. He also does voice-over lectures so you can listen to him just like if you were in class. He responds very fast to questions and is always willing to help you work through stuff.
After taking Professor Farrar's class this semester, I want to be a police officer even more. This class was very informative and motivational. Professor Farrar is very knowledgeable and goes out of his way to help students succeed. He stays after class, helps with applications, intern positions and more. I will be in another class he teaches.
I was not sure about taking a criminal law class, but it was great. Professor Farrar teaches in a way that makes learning easier and fun. I learned a lot and would take another class he teaches.
Professor Farrar's online classes are the best yet. Its almost like you are really in class. He is very organized and provides you with everything you need to pass the class.
Mr. Farrar is very easy going as long as you study on the study guides you will pass your exams. Almost all the questions are in the order of the study guide for the exams and he does not assign homework in his face to face classes. He gives many opportunities for extra credit too.
Absolutely enjoyed every second of his class. His class is fairly easy but he makes every lecture fun and interesting . Learned tons and wish he could be my professor forever. You only need the book if you want to learn more but honestly it is not necessary you learn a lot with just his lectures.
His main purpose is for one to learn. He is an outstanding professor. Greatly recommended!!
This teacher is amazing. The class is simple enough to where you don't have homework, but you need to read the chapter! 3-4 DBs, a quiz every week, a few tests and one paper. His lectures are awesome. He has an audio lecture straight from the PowerPoint for every chapter. You can listen to it while youre doing anything. I listen to it every day.
Online classes - drop the mic! It's like being in class - really. Many reminders, and makes things very clear.
What a great guy and teacher! Really cares about his students. The coarse mainly consists of tests, with ALL of the info clearly outlines in his powerpoints, and the textbook. There are also 3-4 discussions, but aren't graded, and a good chance to speak your mind without getting penalized for it (finally). Would recommend.
Professor Farrar is an awesome teacher. He cares about the students and he makes even the most difficult subjects easier to understand. His lectures are funny and we do a lot of hands on learning. He also makes himself available between classes and other times if you need help.
Hes amazing, as long you go to class for the study guide and just bring it for the test and get this hell let you have it out for the test. If you have a law major or just picking it for credit for another major get him
High recommend this teacher. Work is organized and workload is very easy going. The focus is more on learning rather than heavy workloads. Great course.
This class restored my faith in online classes, I was very hesitant in taking online classes again after terrible experiences. This class was one of my favorite classes I've taken. He does lectures online which are AMAZING they make things super easy to understand. There are extra credit opportunities for major points, but you won't need them.
This was the best class ever. Professor Farrar is a great teacher. His lectures are funny and he really knows a lot about police work. He makes the class interesting which makes you want to learn. I will be taking more classes with him.
Professor Farrar is absolutely amazing! Teaching AJ in a time like this when racial tension is high must make it tough, but he delivers the lectures so well. Show up, pay attention, be there for the review days before an exam and you're gold. I would heavily recommend taking his class!!
This is the best online class I have taken. Professor Farrar provides you with everything you need to be successful, including audio/video lectures! This is great as I listen to them in the car and also at home. Its like being in a class. I would recommend this instructor for sure.
This is an awesome class. Professor Farrar makes what can be a very difficult subject, easy to understand. Honestly, its so interesting you will want to pay attention. He offers extra credit and the level of class participation is great. Everyone gets involved in the conversations and the case study's are the best!
One word... A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
Professor Farrar is awesome!From previous experience in law enforcement he really knows his stuff and he makes it interesting to learn. The lectures are very informative and useful when going into this field. Overall recommend taking him!
Great professor really makes learning the material interesting and tells great stories. Have had him for 3 classes and have gotten A's in all. Easy to pass. Will definitely be taking this professor for as many of the AJ classes I can.
Professor Farrar is amazing!!! Have had him for several classes and loved them. He goes out of his way to help his students and makes learning the material interesting and has great stories to tell. I would highly recommend any of Professor Farrar's classes.
I love Professor Farrar!! He definitely deserves a rating because he is the best of the best. He is passionate about his field, he makes sure that every student understands the lectures. He goes out of his own way to help the most he could such as helping students with job offers, internships opportunities, extra credit, etc. Take his class ASAP !!
I was not sure about taking a class that seemed so hard but Professor Farrar made the class easy for me to understand. His lectures are informative and he puts everything on Canvas that you need. He also does a review before each exam which helps you work through those topics that a more difficult to understand. Great Professor!
One of the best professors at MSJC. I highly recommend taking his course, very understanding and his lectures are very interesting he makes the class enjoyable.
He is such a good professor! He teaches in a very interesting way, that keeps students engaged. There's several tests, but if you do the study guide you'll pass! Like many teachers, there is a project due towards the end of the semester. Other than those assignments, the lectures are very fun!
Prof. Farrar is the best. If you are considering a career in law enforcement it is imperative you take some of his classes. His knowledge and teaching style is AMAZING.
(Online course) He grades easily, gives extra credit oppurtunities often. He provides an online version every week of the sections readings. He is an amazing teacher, you can tell he cares about his students and the work he goes over in the classes. 10/10 recommend this class!
I was really nervous when I first got to class, I thought it would seem really hard but Prof. Farrar made it fun and easy. Really easy A and an amazing teacher, will definitely take his classes when available. Fun lectures for sure!!
I have never had a professor SO amazing. Definitely recommend. 10/10
A great professor. He is very knowledgeable and is just amazing. Class was never boring and showed some interesting videos. If you get the chance ,take him
To begin with he was super super clear! Which is awesome with teachers. The only thing to do for his class is review the PowerPoint lecture then take a quiz. That was it nothing else. Plus like 3 discussion boards throughout the semester which was great. There are 3 exams but they are legit the same questions from the quizzes. Oh & 1 midterm.
So great. His lectures are amazing.
Out of my 3 years at MSJC, Farrar has been the best professor. Ive never had a professor as awesome as he is... he is so hilarious and he has so many cool cop stories.
He was by far the best professor I have had this whole semester. He was very understanding that were all in a tough spot and even though he didnt have to, he made his presence known that if we needed anything he was always there. His encouragement and good attitude made his class enjoyable and something to look forward to!
Farrar is definitely the best! showing up isnt necessarily mandatory but if you have good attendance he might round your grade up at the end of the semester. lots of good stories about his time in law enforcement. super nice and funny. LOTS of extra credit available too
Really nice guy who cares about his students. Very straightforward grading. 1 DB and 1 quiz per week with lots of study material provided. Absolutely take this class if you want to learn about the history of and modern workings of law enforcement.
Absolute goat, this was one of my favorite classes because of the material and the laid-back nature of professor Farrar. He gives one discussion board with a quiz each week which is easy and a test every 6-7 weeks. We two larger assignments but they're rather easy. If you have to take AJ 102, take him!
Professor Farrar, was a great motivator with amazing lectures. Best Professor thus far.
Great professor! Helpful and there if you ever need any clarification on work.
AJ 102 was a great class! Professor Farrar is very simple and you learn so many things. Every assignment is useful and worth it, he doesn't just give busy work. There is weekly discussions that are very interesting and more just for your opinion and to see others as well. He puts lectures and in word format so you can pass the quizzes. :)
Professor Farrar is a very nice and chill professor. He's not a tough grader and had 2 papers total in one semester + weekly discussion and quizzes. As long as you participate and do your homework, you'll get A no problem.
Professor Farrar is one of the best professors I've taken. He genuinely cares about his students and wants you to pass his course. His lectures are interesting and he has the experience to back it up.
Great Teacher.
He was a great professor, the course I took was fairly easy as long as you put in the work and stay on top of assignments.
Professor Farrar is an amazing professor and should be an example for any online professor. He always checks in with students who haven't submitted assignments yet and his tests are directly from the PPT. I've already had him for 3 different classes and he's been fantastic in each of them, if you need an easy online class, he's the professor.
This professor was absolutely amazing, and gave clear instructions for each assignment while providing interesting and thoughtful lectures that are engaging. He provides personal feedback on all assignments! Would love to retake it and go deeper into each assignment. I was super busy this semester with two jobs and full time college.
Taken this Proffesor at least 4 times for different classes. He is the best! Informative lectures, clear grading, organized curriculum and help if you need it in the form of extra credit and feedback.
This was one of the best classes I've taken! I would take any of his classes again in a heartbeat! Each week consisted of a discussion board, quiz, and an assessment based on the subject of the week. Super easy and straight forward. He was super helpful, a fast grader, and always gives positive feed back! Take the class.
He is very passionate about his line of work as well as his role as a Professor. He gives great lectures weekly, I didn't even need my textbook. He is a fair grader and the assignments are fun and straightforward. He really does care about his students and the education he provides to his students.
Professor Farrar is awesome and his class is very straightforward! His Intro to Criminal Justice course consists of a weekly quiz(15 questions & answers are straight from book), discussion board(5 sentences for full credit), and an exercise(1-2 pages). He is easily accessible, offers extra credit, and is lenient with deadlines(just communicate).
I have taken 4 classes by Professor Farrar and gotten good grades in all. Very simple class, consists of the same assignment set up weekly and actually entertaining content. I did not need a textbook for any of the classes.
Great professor! I highly recommend taking one of his courses if possible. He is great with communication, the assignments are easy to understand, and he is a super helpful teacher.
