Ramona I Coates Behavioral Sciences Department Ph.D. Sociology, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI |
Professor Coates has been teaching at CCSF since 2007.
Her teaching philosophy is straightforward. "Each time I step into a classroom my goal is to encourage students to learn, provide opportunities for students to establish connections with one another, and empower students to become proactive learners. To me this means continually updating course material, utilizing a variety of teaching methods and styles to disseminate information, and pushing students beyond their comfort zones by teaching them how to critically evaluate social life in our society as well as others. This is an exciting profession and I feel that excitement needs to also be in the classroom."
Professor Coates has published Hey, Purritty Gurrl! Black Stereotyping: Social Interactions among African American and West Indian College Students in Metropolitan New York. Dissertation Research.
She is a member of the American Sociological Association and Caribbean Studies Association.
Professor Coates enjoys spending time with her three loves: her husband and their two incredibly intelligent, articulate and beautiful princess girls. Other things she likes to do - cake decorate & create jewelry for family & friends.

Mik William Moore Behavioral Sciences Department M.A. Geography, University of Cambridge, England |
Professor Moore has been teaching at CCSF since 1995.
His teaching philosophy is to share his love of learning and have a lot of fun doing it, to stimulate the development of an inquisitive mind, and to radically question the status quo. Professor Moore also seeks to introduce students to social science methodology and theory in order to help them develop systematic and rigorous thought processes, the ability to evaluate evidence and argument, and the skills of articulating ideas cogently and coherently.
Professor Moore has been researching and publishing in the field of sociology for many years, beginning with his doctoral research in the early 1970s. His current research focusses on the interaction between human society and the natural environment. His work on water issues has appeared in the reader "Environmental Sociology: from analysis to action", edited by Leslie King and Deborah McCarthy,2005, and an article in "Organization and Environment", September, 1998.
His other interests and concerns are hiking, recording music on garageband,and being a daddy - his son is 8.

Judith Ann Roberts Behavioral Sciences Department B.A., University of California, Berkeley; M.A., San Francisco State University |
Professor Roberts has been teaching at CCSF since January 1996
For me, one of the most important aspects of teaching in the Behavioral Sciences is being responsible for creating a safe space where students will have the opportunity to fully explore, question, and absorb the subjects of psychology, psychological research, and the statistical tools necessary for psychological research. My expectation is that the classroom be a place where students will feel comfortable asking potentially difficult or frustrating questions about the material, will be responded to by a willing and supportive instructor and fellow students, and will come away having learned the competent use of tools that can be applied in a broad range of careers, ranging from business, the arts, sports, psychology, and other sciences.
I greatly enjoy hiking, photography, and gardening.

Henry William Schulz Behavioral Sciences Department B.A. Psychology , University of Detroit |
Professor Schulz taught his first anthropology course at CCSF in 1993. He has also taught anthropology and archaeology courses at UC Davis, San Francisco State University, and the College of San Mateo.
He has a non-traditional approach to undergraduate education. For example, he believes that quizzes and exam's only reflect one's short-term memory ability, not one's academic understanding and knowledge. Professor Schulz's courses are designed to provide students with basic subject information, but, also a theoretical perspective that is consistent with the material taught at California's four-year educational insitituations (i.e. UC and CSU). Likewise, he believes that 'transfer students' must be taught critical thinking concepts, library research skills, scientific writing style, parenthetical referencing and its ethical prerequisite and the severe consequences of plagiarism. In addition, he attempts to provide students with practical methodological and field experiences. For example, encouraging students to conduct ethnographic field research, analyses and interpretation of data, and presention of results in an ethnographic format. Also, he provides 'hands-on' archaeological laboratory experience in materials identification, artifact interpretation, and faunal analyses.
Further, Professor Schulz recognizes the diversity of our students and the many goals and interests that CCSF students have. He also appreciates the needs and goals of some of our adult students who might only be interested in their personal elcuidation and enrichment. He tries to develop his courses to serve the various needs of his students by not using a "one model fits all" format. One of the most unique and wonderful aspects of City College's student body is that it reflects the diverse, creative, and evolved population of San Francisco. This is especially true of many of our evening students, who have returned to pursue their higher education. They are often exceptional, unique, and have a more mature perspective of life and the value of an education. Having experienced this scenario himself, Professor Schulz has a real respect, appreciation, and understanding of their goals and aspirations. They are very often a challenge, yet a joy to teach and know. This is certainly one of the best aspects of City College from his perspective as an educator.
Unfortunately, being a part-time faculty member precludes his complete contribution to many extracurricular activities. Nevertheless, he has tried to contributed to CCSF the best he can. For example, he has developed two new courses that are now offered through the Behavioral Sciences Department; he has served on a Departmental review committee during the College's last accreditation review; he has presented seminars on Getting Into Graduate School through the "College Success Workshop Program" and independently every semester.
He says he feels honored to serve as the Faculty Advisor to the College's "Anthropology Club" which is a tremendous student resource (see his web site for updates). He adds that anthropology is the primer social science (all other social sciences are subsumed within anthropology) in our attempt to understand ourselves, those around us, and all of our role in the grand spectrum of life.
He is an active member of several professional and avocational societies, including: Society for American Archaeology, Society for California Archaeology, San Francisco Historical Society, California Academy of Sciences, The Smithsonian Institution, Center for the Study of the First Americans, and Archaeology Institute of America.
Professor Schulz is an active member and supporter of the following community organizations: The San Francisco Gay, Lesbian, Transgender and Transsexual Community Center, Rescue MUNI, San Francisco Adopt-a-Street, Positive Resource Center, Friends of CCSF Library, Human Rights Campaign, Aids Emergency Fund, and Project Open Hands.
Currently, he is pursuing several research projects including, reconstruction of the San Francisco prehistoric environment, Central California Native mortuary practices and population demographics, and post-contact Native Californian acculturation to Euro-American culture.
Professort Schulz has no hobbies, per se, but he really enjoys reading historical fiction, camping, and travel. Even more I enjoy these endeavors when coupled with intellectual dialogue. Also, he is not adverse to a good party, free flowing socialization, and intimacy.

At the Oakland clinic he served for many years as the clinical training coordinator for the APA approved Clinical Psychology Internship Program which was centered at the Martinez VA Hospital.

Yolanda H. Van Ecke Behavioral Sciences Department B.A., M.S., San Francisco State University; M.A., Stanford University; Ph.D. Cand., University of Amsterdam |
Prof. Van Ecke has been teaching at CCSF since 2000 and was a CalWorks Counselor here from 1998 to 2000.
I like all my students to feel their viewpoints and questions are valued, and find learning about psychology fun and rewarding. As an immigrant, I know that taking college classes in another language can be tough and time consuming, and that being from another culture or country can leave a student feel isolated and misunderstood. Psychology can help students as they learn about themselves, health, happiness, personality, relationships and experiencing change.

In Press. van Ecke, Y., Chope, R. C., and Emmelkamp, P.M. Bowlby and Bowen: Attachment theory and family therapy. Counseling and Clinical Psychology Journal, 2006, 3(2), pp 70-97 van Ecke, Y.
