Comment:

Great professor! It's clear that he enjoys the subject and loves talking about it. If anything is unclear, he is very willing to help and will make appointments with you outside his office hours if necessary. He grades tough, but if you put the work in, you'll do well.

He has a strong Boston accent which makes his clarity bad. Also, he is a hard professor. However, he is warm-hearted and willing to help u.

Very nice prof. Graded every exam on a curve. Loves teaching and the subject materiel. Any lack of clarity in lecture he will correct during office hours. If you read and ask questions you will do fine.

Comment:

Boss and a half. Very clear teacher, easy to learn from him.Class is difficult.Half the class will do poorly (Low C-F) on exams. Not many grades, just 4 quizzes and 2 tests and no HW. Don't let that discourage you tho, lots of idiots take ECO100 so it seems worse then it actually is. He is always available to help when you want it.

Comment:

He's the man. There's no work except for 4 quizzes and 2 tests. Usually 50% of the class will fail or D the test/quiz, even with a curve. He's really helpful to meet with and usually gives hints about whats on the test. His classes are boring sometimes, but he's funny. Be prepared to study really hard for each of the quizzes or tests.

Comment:

The tests and problem sets are fairly challenging, but knowing your math makes them a lot easier. Even though it's not a prerequisite, this course is tough without knowing Calc I. Flaherty's a good lecturer and is really funny. If you stay on top of the course, you'll do fine.

Lots of course material. The problem sets are important with respect to the mid term so do them. The mid term was badly organized though and some students got more time than others.

Professor Flaherty is a great professor. He is not the easiest professor by no means but his class is interesting and he is a funny guy. I recommend taking his classes whenever possible.

Economics is his thing. He is AMAZING, SMART, HUMOROUS. He knows is stuff extremely well. A lot of work required in this class, he makes sure you understand and learn out of his class. If you really want to learn econ and have fun, take his class. Surely the best econ professor we have.

It's not his area of expertise, but it was still a decent course. LOTS of reading...but the books were pretty enjoyable. Pop quizzes were REALLY annoying though.
