Outstanding professor! Without a doubt, the best Econ prof at Behrend. You will learn tools for real-life and discover economics can be applied to almost anything from banking to politics to sports. Highly recommend his class. The "lone survivor" of good economics professors in the Behrend Econ Department.

Sometimes it can be boring in class. The grading system is okay, he does occasionally give you partial credit. Group work however is really painful and tedious.

Fantastic teacher and amazing guy. If you show interest in a special topic he will help you learn about it. On a side note, he looks a lot like Gold Member from Austin Powers.
