Professor Salerno is brilliant! I took SOC thru film as an asynchronous class and it was honestly a dream. He gave great feedback and was very understanding when it came to grading. He is passionate about what he teaches. It is such a fun class because he assigns great films. The papers he assigns are not too bad. 1000/10!!

Professor Salerno is my favorite. The conversations we had were amazing and made me think. Most times it was my self and a few others joining in on his lectures but he always came prepared and ready to work. I enjoyed him greatly. Definitely ready to take again and I recommend him to people who are comfortable thinking abstractly.

Consumer Psychology Class. Very easy if you just show up and listen a little. When writing your paper use some new age ideas and talk about communism how it would work and you'll get a good grade honestly.

Prof. Salerno is one of the most kind hearted, witty, and intelligent professors at Pace. I took his class as a major requirement and he just wants to be able to speak to all students. He isn't a harsh grader at all but he's very fair!

Salerno is one of the few professors at Pace that actually knows what they're doing. He teaches the entire course curriculum and beyond that. Also, he's partially a savage - which makes class even more enjoyable to be in. Pace needs more professors like him.

If you read what he posts on blackboard before the class you will understand what he is saying. If you need some help writing the essays, he is very helpful. Goes out of his way to make sure you understand every topic and get a good grade.

Amazing professor. Dr. Salerno's lectures are very entertaining and his discussions really make you think. He assigns a couple readings per week. They're kinda long but interesting. I got assigned 3 5-paged papers. Just pay attention to what he's saying and you'll have plenty to write in the paper.

Salerno tries hard to be a nice guy, but he is really condescending and unclear. He told me one week I had no idea what I was talking about and the next, told me I totally understood the material. Lectures are long and he goes off on a lot of tangents. Do not take if you care about your grades...

He loves to talk, especially about his life but also about the subject. We had quizzes every day after each of the readings that were more like books, but he allows you to use your hand written notes only. Very smart guy, gave 3 papers for the whole year and each had to be at least 5 pages. Definitely recommend this class is you enjoy sociology

Good professor but not much for class work. If you read the articles and do great on the quizzes you will be fine. Also be sure to do assigned papers.

You will not be bored in class as general discussion is encouraged. That said, classes easily go off topic, and it is very easy to take nothing away from his class. Very long weekly readings that even if you pay attention will be hard to understand. Papers assigned at random. Only take if you are a Soc major, and even then, be sure.

Comment:

He is a SOC professor so yes there will be a lot of writing/reading and yes he is quite hard, much harder than other professors here. Take him if you love SOC/writing and only this. A lot of dry humor and class discussion is highly encourage. Recommended highly for his Urbanism course as it is his passion. Low amount of tests as he "dislikes" them.

Professor Salerno is extremely helpful and his class is very insightful, I added the class late and he allowed me to catch up quickly. Most of his assignments are related to the overall theme so, take good notes and you`ll be good.
