Comment:

Had Dr. Davies 20 years ago and thought that he was very good. Loved the Welsh accent and references to DeBeers, packs of****s and law of diminishing returns with respect to drinking more and more beer. I was confused for a long time about a "one eyed otter" only to find out he was saying "one iota"

Seriously knows what he is talking about! His assignments are very very challenging but the midterms aren't as bad. One of the better profs I've had.

Comment:

This porfessor has good intentions but is very lacking on providing accommodations to students with Disabilities. Perhpas it is his economic background but he really does require a proper education on how to deal with students who have disabilities.

Best prof in Econ department. He is funny and very dedicated to his work. His lectures are very clear,enlightening,and worth-attending. If giving out more example questions, that'd be very helpful.
