Comment:

There's no real good way to study for his quizzes with how widespread the content is over. The quizzes also have multiple trick questions and multiple right answers. He's condescending and arrogant in his emails. Too much for for only one credit hours.

Comment:

The college of business at UCF is wonderful... EXCEPT Lonny Buthcer. These 1 credit classes are more work then the three credit classes. He talks down to students and makes fun of them any chance he can get. While the main focus of these courses, four 1 credit classes (that are a waste of time) are building professionalism. Which he is not.

Comment:

For a 1 credit class Lonny will make you do a ton of work. The work itself is not hard but very tedious and you can tell he's not in it for the students but rather the money. He makes students buy useless books and online courses. He doesnt actually do anything for the class; he doesn't have lectures and doesn't grade papers. His TAs do everything

Comment:

Very easy, but a ridiculous amount of work for a ONE credit class. Every semester he changes the requirements and makes things more disorganised and getting points more difficult. Most students loathe these classes but we have to take them. Only silver lining is if you skip things and get a C, it won't impact your GPA.

I should've enlisted in the Army after highschool because this course is actually worse than Basic Training and Ranger School. He makes information so difficult to find. Avoid at all costs.

Comment:

The geb classes aren't hard but they're really frustrating at times. Lonny does not give straightforward instructions on how to complete a lot of things. You have to click a bunch of links and read a lot just to explain a simple assignment. If anything I think this should be wrapped up in one class.

Sign up for Friday lecture to just to have your spot taken by walk-ins. Absolute disgraceful professor and the sole reason many business students won't be donating to this college.

Comment:

To be fair, the class is an easy A if you've already been doing the bare minimum to get involved in the COBA. The work is tedious but easy. What I dislike the most about him is that he sets up his webcourses page in the most unnecessarily complicated way possible. Nothing more annoying than having 30 million tabs open to complete one assignment.

Comment:

These classes are the worst and completely unavoidable part of being a business major at UCF. They don't teach much and pile on tons of busy work. Professor Butcher comes across as very condescending and rude in his emails. Avoid any of his classes and the UCF College of Business Administration.

Comment:

The course will do little to nothing to prepare you towards professional development. I actually feel it creates more of a hindrance towards my studies that geared toward my major. Get it out of the way as soon as possible and make sure you get your points done on time. I have plenty of friends who did little effort to gain their points and passed.

Comment:

Lonny butcher is at that the stage in his career where he "could have done great things". Unfortunately he's stuck in an everlasting midlife crisis where the only stigma of happiness he can achieve is by forcing pointless courses upon thousands of unwilling participants. Stifling the next generations motivation and aspirations in my opinion.

Comment:

Class is an easy A, but still a waste of time and money. This semester he had us buy a $10 book, read 15 pages from it, take one quiz over it and that was it with that book. Getting tired of spending money on books that his friends wrote that all repeat the same thing over and over. "Look the person in the eye, give a firm handshake, and smile!"

Comment:

This class is so unnecessary and time consuming for a one credit course. So many assignments need to get done and constantly verifying your activities by making you do a list of things to get 10 points on an assignment.

Comment:

For all GEB A/B is not impossible but he tries to make it impossible. Various activities & quizzes to do for just a 1 credit class. Supposedly these GEB classes are to get you prepared to network, find a job, and shine but in reality its just heavy load of activity requirements. Do the work but just expect to put in more time than expected.

Comment:

"You get what you put into it." NOPE! I just read a 200 page book for a little 20 point quiz. Got a 10/20. Not because of limit of effort, or lack of retention from reading, but because his quizzes consist of questions with trick questions and multiple right answers. Class is a waste of time and the professor is a joke. Class doesn't belong at UCF

Comment:

He is the least competent professor in the school of business. He is extremely condescending even though he is highly unintelligent. His classes are the biggest waste of time and is just an opportunity for the school to make money. Him and his classes are the only black eye on the school of business. These classes will make you worse off.

Comment:

Its ridiculous to see hes getting so many positives this semester and only this semester when everyone,including myself, finds this class to be such a waste of time. Its mandatory to take and it takes so much effort needed for a one credit class. Get it out of the way ASAP so you never have to deal with ridiculous and unnecessary course
