Reviews of professor Anthony Ladd

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
If you are reading this, choose another professor or class. I took him during the Fall of 2018 when he first arrived to UNCG and I can honestly say I wish I would have dropped the course. If you are enrolled in this class just for a credit, please consider otherwise. I had to go to the Department Head of Sociology to take an exam. Enough said.

Most closed minded professor I've ever had. He gets mad when students don't speak up in class but when they have something to say he makes them feel stupid and puts them down. His tests are irrelevant to the material we learn and most of the class fails them. He doesn't use canvas so we never have any idea what our grade is.

Ladd is an okay professor, but makes class very boring. He reads straight from a powerpoint. He does not take attendance. He assigns papers based on discussion questions. Tests are easy, multiple choice and true/false. Does not use Canvas, so study notes from lecture and keep up with your grades.

DO. NOT. TAKE. THIS. CLASS. This man is very condescending and extremely rude. Doesn't tell you what your grade is in the class, just tells you to calculate it yourself (uses point scale). Worst introduction course I ever took in my life. Doesn't use Canvas. Wasted time going to his office hours. If you're smart, take this comment in consideration.

Everything said in lectures is simplified ideas of overpopulation and climate change, but all the quizzes and exams are very difficult and loosely based on the lectures. Quiz questions are worded to trick you and make you fail. When he speaks to students who combat something he says he becomes rude and speaks down to them. Don't take this class!!

Dr. Ladd has no people skills. His class is very lecture heavy and he will NOT give you notes. If you ask questions he refers you to the syllabus or a peer. He also hates when people leave his class, so make sure you don't do that or he will call you out about it. He is rude, and grades harshly and will could off for stupid things.

Dr. Ladd is very nice, but I am an A+ student who is about to make their first D in his course. The tests are absolutely hardcore and you best have memorized word for word the 20-30 pages of notes to even be able to get half credit. Also, you wont know youre grade in canvas, as he will say you have your grades-calculate it.

First day of class & 30 minutes into zoom lecture I decided I would be dropping the class. Very condescending & rude. Continued to get off topic & was rude when someone asked a simple question. He took time to talk about how horrible UNCG bookstore employees were, how ignorant young people are, etc. With 30 min of prof, I can say dont take him.
