Literally the best prof I've had at UCSB. weekly quizzes on readings, 2 essays and 1 final op ed. She dropped 2 quizzes which helped me a lot. She is so real and I appreciate her openness with the material. Lots of respect for her.

Dr. Tober was definitely one of my favorite professors that I've had at UCSB thus far. Her lectures were relevant, engaging, funny, personable, and extremely informative. I actually looked forward to going to her lectures and hearing what she had to say each week. Highly recommend and hoping to take more of her classes in the future!!

SOC122 . Tober T L 6 Years Ago

A bit disorganized (often changes dates) but overall a good teacher. The content of the course is engaging and she is a pretty good lecturer. Read the book for the quizzes, go to class, and get feedback on your papers before turning them in!

Professor Tober is definitely one of the best professors I've had in my entire 4 years of undergrad. She speaks very clearly and her lectures are always super interesting and insightful. She makes things very easy to understand, would definitely recommend her to anyone at UCSB! Not a super easy A but if you go to class you'll pass no problem
