Excellent professor. Class was easy. Basically reiterated whats in the textbook during lectures. If you read the chapters before coming to class discussions would be easy to get involved in. Very helpful and gives plenty of useful resources.CRIM1100 2011-05-08 04:12:46 +0000 UTC
Great guy. Attendance isnt mandatory but is extremely helpful and worth-while. 2 mid terms and 1 final. if you study and pay attention, they're the easiest tests you will take. i recommend actually reading the textbook ch before discussion but he pretty much tells you everything you need to know in class. Highly recommended class/professor!CRIM1111 2011-03-29 16:18:57 +0000 UTC
Classes are pretty interesting, he's a nice guy, the three exams were pretty damn easyCRIM1101 2011-01-28 15:49:53 +0000 UTC
really nice guy, knows his stuff, only 1 quiz, a midterm and a final. I only wish he would use powerpoint in his lectures, but all in all a great professor.CRJ1000 2010-12-21 21:29:39 +0000 UTC
I loved this class! It was very interesting and the professor is really great. Gave two midterms and emailed study guides for them the week before. Very easy if you actually study. Cares about grades so is very helpful.CRIM1100 2010-12-17 09:51:51 +0000 UTC
Professor Pruitt is probably the best teacher i have ever had. his class is designed for his students to succeed and understand the material. though grades are important he is more focused on helping his students understand then he is at passing or failing them. I thoroughly enjoyed his class.CRIM1101 2010-11-20 11:50:52 +0000 UTC
He is an awesome teacher. He is extremely enthusiastic about the topic and even though he is a PhD student, he was one of the best teachers I had all semester. He is extremely knowledgeable and really easy to talk to and ask for help. TAKE INTRO TO CJ WITH HIM.CRIM1100 2010-12-08 12:45:38 +0000 UTC
He is the man ! He is interested in this topic and he is always willing to help students with thier grades. I would strongly recommend taking this class with this man.CRIM1100 2010-12-03 14:46:06 +0000 UTC
