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
Dr. Tober is the best SOC professor I've had here at UCSB! Her lectures are awesome, so much so, that class time flies by. She's got a sarcastic sense of humor, which I loved. She does takes weekly attendance, one reading quiz per week which are pretty easy. Readings are manageable, 2 short papers, a book review, & take-home final. She's the BEST!
Dr. Tober is an amazing professor and you can tell she is passionate about her teachings through her lectures. Always making jokes at the expense of her kids, keeps it light and breezy during class but takes attendance everyday. Two easy papers, one book review, and take-home final, TA grades everything. Would definitely take again!
she is the best! class was not difficult at all. Theres two short papers (3-5 pages), one book review(midterm), and the final was a 3-5 page paper. She checks attendance. Also, there are online quizzes on reading but not difficult to pass them! Highly recommend her!
