took soc 128 in the winter & it was amazing! 2 short papers & 1 final with a lot of freedom on what you choose to do (ex. essay, photographs, making a playlist, etc.). 3 quizzes & they were super easy even if you just review the slides. you can tell that turowetz rly cares for his students & wants all of them to succeed

easygoing professor, straightforward material

Besides his voice being fairly monotone and making me sleepy, he's a great lecturer. His slides were helpful. He always posted a midterm and final review. Readings and assignments were easy to understand. There were 4 assignments and he would allow you to turn them in late with a small penalty.

Personally my favorite sociology professor so far!! This was my first quarter at UCSB and he was the best professor for me to take. Quizzes and papers are straightforward, attendance isn't mandatory but definitely recommended. Lectures can feel dense but it's all digestible and honestly super interesting!! Quizzes are based on lecture and readings.

145 was great! 3 quizzes with 2 sa and 10 mc, which he provides clear study guides for & a midterm + final exam that were take-home essays that you get 3 ish days to write. lectures were interesting, and grading was fair. all readings were online and skimmable. def need to do the work and go to class to really understand, but not hard to do well.

Dr. Turowetz has been one of my favorite professors that I have taken within the Soc Department. His lectures are incredibly clear but still touch on extremely impactful information that is set up cohesively throughout the q. The gradebook consisted of 3 in class quizzes (10 MC and 2 SA) 2 short essay assignments, and a final. Def take, very easy!
