Comment:

He will tell you everything you need to know. That said, his tests are intense. Multiple choice is A-H, and "none of the above" will be right at least 25% of the time. Group projects are fun and easy when you have a good group, but also very intensive. Helpful if you go see him. Don't sleep in his class, take good notes.

Comment:

Really knowledgeable guy, but his class is the hardest class I've ever taken. I average an A or AB in all of my classes here at Alma, and I have a solid C in his class right now. His quizzes are the worst things ever. The first question on his first quiz in the class had answers A-L. Besides that, great guy.

Comment:

One of my favorite professors. Learned a lot about how the international finance world works. After this class I was much more interested in the topic. He does a nice job of teaching about current events that relate to the class. Tests are challenging but appropiate. Awesome class, awesome professor.

Comment:

I had Dr. Cunningham for a money management First Year Seminar, and he was probably the toughest professor I've ever had. Take notes; he writes a lot of important stuff on the board, and he's very accessible for help. His tests and exams are very difficult, but study hard. He often holds extra study lectures a few nights before exams.

Comment:

Gives a decent lecture on class material. Also is good at giving egotistical and selfish lectures in his office. Looking out for his own interests not those of the students or the school. This man is a jerk.

This professor is terrible. He is not helpful at all. I went to his office and all he did was make me cry. His tests and quizzes are impossible. If you take this professor, you will HATE YOUR LIFE. don't do it.

Comment:

Great professor, probably the best at Alma. He will always give help if needed. Exams and quizzes are tough but fair, and he offers a lot of extra credit. I highly reccomend taking him if you plan on majoring or minoring in economics.

Comment:

By far one of the greatest professors I've ever had. His class is very tough but as long as you go to class, study what he tells you, and do the reading you'll be fine. If you don't want to do that then pick a different proffessor.

Comment:

Tough professor but he held homework sessions every week and if you ask questions on the homework in class, he'll give the answer that he wants. Very tough quizzes and exams but not impossible. very fair. Not the best prof. to take for not having any interest at all in Economics like me but worthwhile if you do have an interest. Be ready to study.

His tests and quizzes are impossible and his multiple choice have been known to have answers A through ZZ. DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR GPA TO DROP.

Smart professor and a really good guy. I thought he was a bit humorless at first, but my impression changed. Worth taking your early economics classes with him, as he prepares you for later material well. Seriously, take his classes.
