Reviews of professor Theodoric Manley

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He is honestly one of my favorite professors! He is beyond informative, and nice! Class requires you to put in work, but you're in college.. so what class doesn't. If you are a SOC major, take him because he knows his stuff. I took him twice and received A's both times, as long as you put in the effort he grades fairly. Wish i could take him again!

Ideologue who pushes an agenda in class. If you disagree w/it, you'll get lower grades. Once I started telling him what he wanted to hear, I started getting As. Nothing about my writing ability or argumentation changed. The only change was that I stopped "resisting" and regurgitated his ideas back to him. Woke joke.

Be prepared to have the worst time ever. Boring lectures, Mandatory attendance, expensive book, and high expectations. Does not care about personal emergencies. No quizzes or tests simply long essays 10-15 pages single-spaced. 3 essays with a 15-minute group presentation. Worst professor I have ever had, I do not recommend it!!!

Professor Manley is very caring. He is really understandable and is willing to be flexible when it comes to deadlines as long as you talk to him, especially during the whole covid situation. The work given is easy and he is clear about what he expects, making the class an easy A as long as you do the assignments.

definitely would not take him again, very one sided when it comes to teaching and viewing the world and does not see the other sides point of view. as a teacher, you should be open to everyones point of view.

Trust me, do not take his multicultural psych class. He gives very vague rubrics and will grade you down on random things that he never mentioned. The papers were extremely long and the class average on them was often a D. His expectations in general are way too high and you never know what he's looking for.

Very helpful professor gives specific feedback. You do assignments each week leading up to your final essay and he helps throughout. Be aware of the due dates because he doesnt remind you. He wants the essays in a specific format and the final paper can determine your entire grade so take his corrections seriously and ask him for help!

I would take Professor Manley again. Lecture heavy and expects a lot from you. . Read the textbook and ask questions. Group Powerpoint, paper and Ind. paper.  Ask questions. Go to office hours.Finish work early so you can ask if you are on the right track.  Communicate with your group and stay on task. You will learn a lot from this class.
