Intro to sociology is comprehensive and the tests are VERY straightforward. Everything is from the book, no REAL need to go to lecture - she is really nice and a very easy class as long as u can read textbook. worthwhile course

InSocSECT Taken for Credit:N/A Attendance: N/A Textbook Use: Essential to passing Rater Interest: Really into it Grade Received: N/A

Professor is nice, but class is SO boring. Don't go unless it's a test day. The attendence sign in sheet doesn't count for anything. She gives out a study guide of what exactly will be on the test the class before the exam. All you have to do is use the study guide and you can easily pass with an A.

soc304 Taken for Credit:N/A Attendance: N/A Textbook Use: Essential to passing Rater Interest: It's my life Grade Received: N/A

She is not dry at all, and people who say she is difficult are either really lazy or not that bright. If you go to class and read, there is no reason you can't pull an A or B+. She is NOT out to trick you! Go to class guys, she's so awesome, and I think it hurts her feelings when you don't. She's interesting as a person also.

Dev304 Taken for Credit:N/A Attendance: N/A Textbook Use: Essential to passing Rater Interest: It's my life Grade Received: N/A

The material is interesting but the way she lectures is Very dry. 3 exams which have some absurd questions on them which are hypothetical. The films were interesting. She needed to refer to her notes a lot which made me think she did not know the material all that well. NOT AN EASY A at all. Need to read the book which exams and lectures are from.

SOC304 Taken for Credit:N/A Attendance: N/A Textbook Use: Barely cracked it open Rater Interest: It's my life Grade Received: N/A

Angel Butts is awesome, so interesting and laid-back - definitely one of the best professors at Rutgers. The class is pretty easy but more important is how she transforms your view of deviance. She lectures completely from the book, throwing in interesting films here and there.

SOC OF DEVIANT BEHAVIOR - TOOK HER CLASS, NEVER SHOWED UP...HAS 3 MULTIPLE CHOICE EXAMS. VERY CLEAR AND HELPFUL. IF YOU ARE ON THE BORDERLINE, SHE WILL TELL YOU TO WRITE A PAPER AND SIGN IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS OF CLASS AND YOU MUST GET AT LEAST A 50 OR HIGHER ON THE FINAL TO PASS HER CLASS! VERY GOOD PROFESSOR. KINDA GOTHIC TOO! HAHAH!

Cool class, great lecturer. Notes straight from the book, so it's ok not to come to class, especially since she doesn't take attendance. Exams straight from the notes/book and very easy...one hell of an easy A class at RU. TAKE IT!!!

soc101 Taken for Credit:N/A Attendance: N/A Textbook Use: N/A Rater Interest: Really into it Grade Received: N/A

She is hands down an awesome professor. She's really cool and down to earth, something most profs at ru are seriously lacking. She enjoys what she does, and it shows. I really can say she was born to teach.

Soc 101 Taken for Credit:N/A Attendance: N/A Textbook Use: N/A Rater Interest: It's my life Grade Received: N/A

Angela Butts is the greatest professor u'll eva have. She teaches relevant and interesting material! She asks you to read a long portion in the txt but during classes she just picks out bits and pieces so you really dont have to know every single thing in the chapter. She's a mighty great grader and the clearest and friendliest prof eva! Love her..

Intro Soc Taken for Credit:N/A Attendance: N/A Textbook Use: N/A Rater Interest: Low Grade Received: N/A

Best professor I have had yet (any dept.) If you do the readings (not too overwhelming) and then go to class and pay attention, you will get an A. The tests are multiple choice and based on class lectures. She doesn't take attendence, but you should go. She's very interesting and knowledgeable. I totally recommend her!! she's great

Deviant Behavr Taken for Credit:N/A Attendance: N/A Textbook Use: N/A Rater Interest: It's my life Grade Received: N/A

She was really fun to have as a professor. The material was interesting and readings weren't hard. You'll hear a lot about S&M which is an added bonus to the class. :) She gives out extra credit which you shouldn't need if you read and listen to lectures. The exams were the most straight-forward I have ever taken, very quick and easy if studied!
