Reviews of professor Randy Blazak

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Randy is an awesome professor! He's funny, down to earth, and certainly knows his stuff. The books he chooses for class are interesting and relevant. He's not a tough grader and gives plenty of extra credit opportunities. I highly recommend this class and actually wish that I had also taken SOC 204 with him as well.

Dr. Blazak made a lot of joking during the meeting but it didn't seem like fun at all, it was awkward and weird. At the end of the term, I didn't receive my final exam grade, and my final grade was B. I emailed him and ask for it, and he never replies!

Lots of extra credit. Interesting class. Short weekly lecture videos. Wish more students participated because it would add conversation and depth to interesting topics. I do wish he would update his videos as they were recorded during covid and already dated. 
Good class. Very interesting. Don't use Chat GPT....he knows your cheating lol

Randy is an awesome person outside of being a professor. I love going to class and his lectures and stories are always awesome. There are two paragraphs due each week and one essay due weekly or biweekly, but it's definitely manageable and clear outlines are always given. I totally recommend taking one of his classes, it's just a lot of fun.

Blazak is both caring and hilarious. He is very knowledgeable about all things sociology, particularly hate crimes & white supremacy. Be prepared to laugh and cry. And be prepared to present your final papers as a part of a panel - it was a great experience. He fostered a safe, supportive community. I had a great time with everyone in this class.

Randy is great. He is very understanding when it comes to  turning in late assignments.  The whole class is basically just a long talk. The way that Randy explains concepts makes them very easy to understand.

I always looked forward to this class. Books are online. Anybody who wants an A can get one with minimal effort. Extra credit is constantly offered, resubmissions (for full credit) were encouraged. Tests easy. Randy is hilarious and super nice, I don't understand some of the reviews here lol. Seriously, such a cool guy. Always emailed me back, too.

Very fun and interesting teacher. He is very knowledgeable and can be really funny to lighten up difficult topics. I am honestly upset that I am about to transfer or I would be taking more of his classes!

Dr. Blazak is an excellent professor. I have taken three of his courses now, and I have enjoyed them all. I am hoping to take more courses offered by him in the future.
