Neckerman, Kathryn 
V3225 Sociology of Education
Please keep in mind that this review is more than 5 years old.
Probably will be a big lecture, but she makes time for discussion, and if you're not shy, it's easy to get in an opinion. She doesn't mind being interrupted with questions as do some professors, which is nice. The material is spread out, and some may say spread thin, but I think for a survey course it does justice to the major topics...especially the sickly state of many public schools in non-suburban, non-white districts. It pays a lot of attention to inequalities and performance disparities. Lectures are on target. Neckerman is knowledgeable and capable professor.
Won't send you reeling....2 papers: 1 short and 1 long. Very flexible with submission tardiness. Final is not that tolling if you've done the reading. And even if you didn't do the reading during the semester, the material is accesible and interesting, so cramming the night before is a viable option for the lazy at heart!
