Comment:

In searching for Dr. Davidson's next class, I learned of his passing. Having taught at SJSU for 10 years, I would say that Dr. Davidson as one of the best. He has motivated and inspired many students to seek careers in the global community. To family, please know that his memory will live on through the many diverse students he has influenced.

I was in his last class of Accounting. Although I only had him for one class, I respect his knowledge in Accounting, and he will be missed.

I'm devasted to learn of Dr. D's passing. I had him 15 years ago for 2 bus. law classes, and he was the very best teacher I ever had. He inspired me, and helped me believe in my abilities. To his daughter - I am so very sorry. I've spent the last hr Googling and cannot find any public info on services-anything planned open to former students?

This guy is super unique. His knowledge in Law and Accounting is master. He has a good sense of humor and loves to teases people. Once you get to know him, you'll never forget him. His class prepares for you in the real life, very helpful. I have seen some friends who even fail in his accounting and still would like to take him again. He's so cool!

He is one of the best professors that I have had at Foothill College. He is a strange one but once you get to know him you realize he is just trying to make the class fun and interesting. He is extremely knowledgeable with law and accounting. He helps the students alot. Just do the work and you'll do well in his class.

The best professor I have ever had! Classes are very fun, active, challenging and full of extra information! Higher standard for students who want to get somewhere, definitely not for lazy people! I highly recommend Mr. Davidson! He cares so much about his students and tries to get the best potential out of them! He also has a good sense of humor!

Simply the best teacher...I've never met such a helpful teacher...he made me understand what accounting truly is and I'm so thankful for that. Professor Davidson knows how to make students understand the "skeleton" of accounting (like he always says)... if you're an accounting major or if you ever plan to take accounting classes, take Davidson, he

Comment:

He is a good professor if you're a masochist. His motivation is insult, he will demean you based on your race, body size, sex, etc. He may have been a better teacher when he was younger, but as he is very old, he makes mistakes in what he says and what he means to say, and refuses to repeat himself and will insult you if you dont understand.

Excellent teacher. Hard to get an A, but can be done, if you work hard and take part in class discussions.
