Reviews of professor Aaron Peeksmease

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Peeksmease is a very good teacher, but test are hard. He gives pop quizzes every week, and are easy if you understand the material. Classes are very interesting, but you have to work for your grade.

Very passionate professor, keeps class interesting; however, he grades way too hard. Assignments are incredibly annoying and he only releases them less than 48 hours before they are due and then grades them tough. Awesome professor, but if you want an A, don't take him. Also if you're not a liberal, I definitely don't recommend this class.

His lectures are extremely interesting, and he is very passionate about what he teaches. However, beware of pop quizzes (you are not allowed to make them up if you miss them)! Tests are very, very specific to lecture so write down everything.

I LOVED Professor Peeks! He was immensely interesting and clearly very passionate about the discipline he teaches. You HAVE to go to class to do well on tests though. He doesn't post the lecture slides/notes/etc on Canvas, and his test questions are very specific and based on small details from class rather than concepts you learn about in class.

Really interesting class and professor but the pop quizzes can hurt your grade a lot. Asks very specific questions from small portions of lecture and will ask for statistics from briefly mentioned charts. There is a large group project which is time consuming.

Peeks is extremely passionate about what he teaches and is a super friendly and approachable guy. However, the pop quizzes will tank your grade. Write down EVERY statistic from the lecture, because they will be on pop quizzes and the tests. Lectures are entertaining, projects are fun, and homework is easy, but the quizzes and tests were difficult

The content alone is super interesting but Peeks' delivery is INCREDIBLE. Hes the BEST, most passionate prof Ive ever met. Hes so excited to teach which made me excited to listen. SUCH a caring person, he wants you to succeed in life not just in his class. Tests are super specific but not hard at all. Just pay attention. Lots of extra credit.

My biggest downfall with Peeks is his tests, he asked random things that werent part of the big ideas for the unit. Lots of application based questions too. I loved his lectures, he was a very enthuaistic and funny person. He took attendance only on the class before spring break, and before easter. (annoying). Few homeworks, and big project at end.

I really liked Peaks and how he taught the class. Recommend 10+ not easy but not hard. Learned a ton about sociology and myuself. Picked up the minor after talking with Peaks. Great guy.
