Reviews of professor Michael Yoder

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
The classes are super interesting with real life cases from an FBI profiler. Tests are short answer and from the lectures, but he is pretty easy grader. No book for this class so you have to go to class to get the notes. Couple of short paper assignments and 1 big term paper 7-10 pages long but he gives you all semester to get it done.

The guy is a legend. I added his name on this website just to let everyone know he is the OG. He knows his material, as he was a profiler for the FBI, which only added to the respect the whole class had for him. If you add into the class discussion, be ready to defend your answers and cite your sources.

I was very excited to take this class as I thought it would be a good intro for becoming a detective but this was quite the opposite. Professor Yoder is lecture heavy, doesn't provide the slides he speeds through, and isn't clear on his grading process. While he does share good information, his strategy of sharing it is highly ineffective.

CJE4990 Very knowledgeable & his lectures are interesting. Exams are difficult because theyre fill-in-the-blank & true/false but he gives a study guide. He likes to teach in list format so be ready to memorize a lot. Basically graded on 2 exams, a 7-page paper, and attendance. He lectures the full 2.5 hours, no break. Overall, hard but good class.
