Comment:

Professor Greenlee is a teacher I advise everyone not to take, he will ask why no one asks questions but will insult you for asking a question. it's quite clear he is not looking to teach students he just wants the pay. I realized that in order to pass you have to read the textbook multiple times and youtube concepts that he rushes through in class

Worst Professor I have ever had. Even had miscalculations in his examples. The practices were completely different from the quizzes. You won't actually learn anything.

Does NOT give clear assignments, but then does not give extra credit when his messy assignments aren't fully perfect. Still got an A since the class isn't hard, but he is really not there for a students trying to learn, he is just there to grade you.

Comment:

Professor Greenlee's (summer) class consists of three tests, one research paper, quizzes before the start of new chapter, and HW assignments on MyEconLab. He encourages students to ask questions and visit him during his office hours for help. If you are willing to learn and put much effort, take his class. He truly care for his students!

Comment:

This was the hardest class I have taken so far at SPC. There were way too many quizzes and tests which were extremely hard. I'm usually an A and B student and I just barely passed so don't take him if you really need the credits. He does not offer extra credit. Last but not least I know more about his retirement plans then I do this class.

Has absolutely no chance of getting redemption for any assignments. Not clear on assignment tasks and/or having due dates set in place.

Comment:

Was literally impossible to get an A. His tests were extremely hard. He would yell at our class to ask questions, but would make you feel stupid when you did. However, when you go to his office for questions, he was very nice and helpful.

Comment:

His lectures were usually interesting, but there aren't that many assignments and I barely passed with an A and I'm a straight A student. Tests are difficult and are a large percentage of final grade. Study and know the terms for quizzes. Earn his respect, give a real effort and don't skip class. He's a tough grader, but is willing to help.

Everything is memorization. If you can't memorize an entire chapter get ready to fail this guy's class. I took notes and did all the homeworks and nothing helped me pass this class. There is no possible way to memorize an entire textbook.

Comment:

George Grenlee is an awful professor. Yells at students whenever you ask a question and makes rude remarks. Does a stupid chuckle when he's angry but is trying to be nice. Tests are very hard and nothing like what he lectures in class. Also told the class that he does not believe in anxiety, and is inconsiderate to students. Do not take Greenlee.

Comment:

He gives good lectures I will not lie but, his tests were very hard. I'm a straight-A student and taking him was not a breeze. No matter how hard I studied it was never enough to get higher than a B on his tests. I would say every other week you will have a quiz they are open-ended not multiple choice. Overall if you like a challenge he is your guy

Comment:

Definitely the hardest class I've taken in a long time, but I did learn a lot. Be prepared to know the terms in the chapter word for word and STUDY for the tests/quizzes. You really have to earn your grade in this class. There isn't any extra credit, but tests are multiple choice. Greenlee is a funny and informative prof, but he isn't the easiest.

Comment:

Personally the worst class I've taken. Reading the textbook and knowing it word-for-word is CRUCIAL. There are pop quizzes for every chapter and they are very specific, I have read the chapters and still failed the quizzes. His lectures are very confusing and when it comes time to do graphing, his examples are hard to learn from. Do not recommend.

Mr. Greenlee is a great teacher. His subjects are necessary so is great that you can actually learn something from him. He is tough, but that doesn't mean he is a bad teacher. Just study for the tests and have exact questions and he will be there to answer. One research paper, 3 tests and some homework. No extra credit. Definitely take him.

Comment:

Finally! A professor who teaches well, goes by the book. Challenges his students to think for themselves. Does not tolerate stupid questions (so beware), but if you're sincerely asking he will lead you to the answer. 3 tests, multiple choice, not too difficult if you study. Quizzes/hw for each chapter (20% of grade). Get a B and final is optional

Comment:

Picks on students, and has no control over how loud his voice is. Only cares about test grades, and some of them have very poor wording so it's easy to get the question wrong. Class told him it would be helpful if he reviewed for the test next time before we had it, and he blamed the students for not asking questions. I wouldn't take him again.

I'm currently do well in his class but he is the toughest professor. Not very nice. Loves to lecture and makes fun of students in front of everyone else. Picks on specific students.

Comment:

This class had nothing to do with my intended major and made it that much more difficult. He is very confusing and it seemed like most of what was taught was rudimentary compared to the actual material on the test. He expects the students to come to him with whatever problems they have and he hates "feeding" the answers to people.

One of my favorite teachers. I took him for macro and micro. He's funny and entertaining, but you'll learn a lot. Anything he says during his lectures can and most likely will be on the test
