This class was very interesting and enjoyable to go to. The tests are very easy if you do the reading and go the review sessions. The class is only an hour and it goes by really fast. There are 3 midterms, but they are very flexible if you need to make up one.
They're nice people. But it is a hard class. I liked the subjects and there is no way you fall asleep in lecute, cuz the topic is just interesting and they're funny. But the midterms and the final are very hard. I took it p/not pass and I passed with a C-. It is NO easy A !!! you have to study !!
Absolutely loved the class and lectures...very interesting topic. Everyone should have to take this class. However, midterms and the final were difficult...make sure you read and go over lecture notes. They also like to throw in Q's from lecture...so go. All in all, loved the Baldwin's & the class.
The Baldwins are two of the best teachers I've had at UCSB. I thoroughly enjoyed their lectures, and I got to know them personally in 152B. They are great people and they truly care about their students' learning. Tests are difficult, but the subject is very interesting.

great lectures. This class should be a requirment for everyone. easy B if you just study the stuff an hour of 2 the night before the midterm.
Lectures are worthless and midterms basically consist of the readings. I went to class a total of 6 times. The short answer questions were based on the readings, so basically if you read the text, you dont need to go to lecture.
Great teacher, much friendlier than his wife so if you have a problem speak with him, very understanding
Great teacher and an amazing speaker(you can count his mistakes on one hand). However, he requires us to memorize little inane details from past lectures that really aren't important. However, overall my experience with him was beneficial and you should take his class if your soc. major.
they're weird. really weird. and half the time you wish you had a video camera because you don't believe two people like this not only exist, but they found each other, fell in love and got married. tests were hard, teachers bizarre, I say take the class.
Definately take atleast 152a. Keep up with your reading and you'll get atleast a b+. Interesting material so its not a boring read. Baldwins are AWESOME.
Enthusiastic about subjects, tests are detailed, all of his classes have the same format- if you like his style take his other classes, tests are mainly about spitting out factual information but you study it so much that you remember the information after the class is over, keeps you entertained
Great class. You learn a lot of interesting stuff. Read and go to study sessions and the tests should be pretty easy.
The is a FANTASTIC. My favorite by far in college. The exams are hard, but relative. I read the book, never missed class and got an A. Questions can be a bit specific though.
Prof Baldwin is good. Its just that i think the class is harder than it really needs to be. Not an easy A.
the baldwins are very fun, and truly interested in teaching. lectures were really funny and informative. test were kind of hard.
The Baldwins are the cutest things ever! Their sex class is great, well taught, and it is very easy! Only class I actually get 100% on tests!
so good. extremely excited about teaching, and it shows! he buzzes around the room, and keeps you awake in the early hours of the morning. be prepared to do some reading, but it's at least interesting.
The Baldwins are great, they make sex class lots of fun and offer an excellent presentation of the material, they also really care about thier students and what is going on in their lives and are always available for questions, etc.
So the thing about 152A is that you do actually need to read the book, or at least i did, and got an A. They are super nice once you're in 152B but before that generally it's hard to get into the in crowd. Very understanding, kind and helpful people.
Everyone at UCSB should take this class.. the Baldwins were awesome professors, they were so helpful.. a lot of memorization but totally worth it
