Reviews of professor Samuel Collins

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This class was somewhat challenging, but if you pay attention and attend class you can easily get an A. Not very many tests at all, and the assignments are pretty straightforward. Professor Collins is always willing to help.

Not a difficult course, but there is a ton of readings and films/videos to watch. Weekly discussion questions, a long essay plus a brief presentation, and a take-home final exam.

Took this class online during COVID. He doesn't answer emails or questions at all! Heavy chapter readings(3 books), video lectures, discussion questions, voice thread comments, and a movie each week. Class discussions and class materials don't have any connections. A midterm and a final. Don't take him please; it's a terrible class. RUN!!!!!!!!!!

Super nice professor. A bit challenging but if you go to class you will understand. I did not go to his class yet still did well.

People overestimate Dr. Collins. He assigns you readings and movies every week, but you don't need to go through any of it. There are these discussion questions that rarely intersect with those readings, and that's all you need to do. Just come to class, and take notes. Google keywords to get answers. Easiest class I've ever taken.

He only grades based on his own opinion and what he thinks it right.

Dr. Collins made me fall in love with Anthropology, and it opened my eyes to a lot of things. LOTS of extra credit opp, weekly quizzes (4 questions), take-home final and midterm, and monthly discussion questions. Class is easy if you just pay attention. He knows his stuff.

I liked Professor Collins. With almost every topic he tried to include his own research to help us understand. He goes through a ppt, but the information in the ppt is just basic or a picture of something. He explains it and goes into detail at the lecture. Go to his office hours or make an appoint if you need help. Makes a lot of jokes too

Dr. Collins is a nice guy but very confusing teacher. The questions on tests are worded confusingly and he is very hard to reach outside of class. He grades late, I am almost done with the semester and he has only put in 5 grades.

Professor Collins wasnt a bad professor but his teaching style is not good. A lot of times his slides arent full of details so looking back at slides wont necessarily help you. Everything he wants you to know will come from his verbal communication. His tests are based on what he wants your answer to be no matter if it makes sense or not.
