I enjoyed his stories; I don't see how they were relevant to class whatsoever, but I found him entertaining nonetheless. But yes, he turns INTRO to Sociology into an impossible discipline. He should just stick to being a therapist, although I wonder how he fairs with that.

I would have to say, out of any professor i've ever had, Dr. Direnzo tops the list on being loud and obnoxious at times. He is definitely an acquired taste... if you can deal listening to him for an hour and you study the test pack, you should do alright in this class. Not easy but not hard either.

WORST PROFESSOR EVER. Do not take ANY class he teaches, everything said about him thus far is true. It's not the material that makes it difficult, it's him. Avoid at all costs.

I graduated from ud last year and this guy was the worst prof ever, probably in the entire history of academia. He is a total jerk. some one should clue him in on this website to destroy his lousy, self-rightous ego. Hope he has a rotten xmas.

A dipicable, poor excuse for a human being. He is George Castanza's evil twin. Grumpy, angry man who needs to stop bragging about himself. To top it all off he is a bad professor who does not relay any useful info to his students.

Worst class I have ever taken, his stories are cheesy and boring and he likes to brag...Other than that the bright side is that the lectures have nothing to do with the test material and you just signed up for the biggest waste of time on campus. =)

Worst class I have ever taken.He is arrogant, self-righteous, condescending, and offensive-needs to make the world feel stupid so he can feel smart. Lectures are pointless. If you must take the class, buy the testbank, where almost all test Q's come from

i am currently studying over 2000 notecards from the test bank because this is the only way to pass the class....if you take this class, you will hear nothing but stories of how he is the greatest man in the world.... stay away, you still have a chance...

Never around when you need help, i.e. he never responds to e-mails and he only has office hours twice a week for a half hour each. Makes you buy HIS book for $50 then HIS test packet for $50. He talks about nothing and cares nothing of the students.

Absolute waste of time, and class. He lectures about NOTHING, then his tests are impossible. I had to change it to pass/fail to keep the grade from killing my GPA. DO NOT TAKE

Class is very interesting. Easy to understand. A lot of reading. Buy the sample test booklet...you won't regret it. Fun, easy to get an A if you take notes like crazy and read the book.

Class is fun to go to but the tests are so impossible to get an A in. I study like hell and get B's and C's. Take the class if u want to be amused but other then that steer clear!

Avoid this class like you would avoid the plague!! This man is absolutely ridiculus. There is no way other than lucky guessing to get an A in this class. You could study all you want and still get a C. That's just the way he works.
