Really enjoy Dr. J and her lectures. She is incredibly knowledgable and passionate about her work. Head GSI, Kenly, is awesome! Great class (she now teaches at UC Berkeley)

Awesome professor. She is very laidback and nice. Easy take-home quiz and 3 pg paper, and a take home final. She gave us 8 extra credit opportunities so no reason that you can't get a good grade. A lot of books and readings, but majority of them are interesting. Attendance mandatory.

A must take class for a Sociology major. Jones is one of the most interesting Professors I have had at UCSB. She knows the subject inside and out and picks very interesting readings. Take home midterms and finals. Great Professor, great class.

Notice all the whiny comments are from the Intro class. Sorry kids, in college you actually need to read and come to class. I found Jones a bit intimidating until the class got going. She's way approachable and knows her business. Top notch professor, UC quality, great class. Quizzes and final(!) are open book, but you'd better do the reading.

she's a good professor. I came in more than an hour late for the final because I thought it was at a different time and she still let me take it. thanks.

Although her lectures are very clear and precise...the paper that is required for the class is very time consuming and annoying since this class doesn't even count for a writing requirement. You MUST attend lecture to even think about passing the class and try not to get sidetracked about her somewhat bias views.
