Comment:

Go to lecture! If I would have went I would have gotten better than a C. Very nice guy, knows his stuff, but it isn't curved and tests are difficult. He places importance on lectures, ie important pop quizzes and extra credit chances.

Really nice guy, but I sometimes I got lost in his lectures, but that could be because I didn't understand it and it's not his fault

Although stuck in the 30's, one of the few profs I have seen in Econ who care about teaching. Unfortunately, tries to force students to attend his lectures which are outdated and redundant.

Comment:

Good professor. If you attend class and take notes you will do well. If you get **** or stoned the night before and spend the class talking with your friends about how **** or stoned you got the night before, attending class won't help you very much.

Comment:

Don't fault the guy for encouraging people to go to class by having quizzes. If you don't want to go to class, don't ****ing attend college. Very clear in his lecture, made it interesting. Those who sleep are burnouts, so we can't blame him for them.

Comment:

Daffy duck wannabe. Extremely condescending and passive aggressive. Tests and homework are cake. Forces kids to go to class by putting huge weight on random calling . Noone would go otherwise.
