Comment:
The worst teacher at Tyler. Calling him a teacher is an overstatement as really didn't teach. He was always late to class & with grades, and would read out of the text. Come on I can read it myself. I go to school to learn not to be read to. Off color comments were not appreciated. Color conscientious (not in a good way).

I agree that he was the worst prof. that I had. I hope that he doesn't return as UTT is a better place. He is always late for class, reads from the book, doesn't use a financial calculator, has a bad attitude (no prof. should say the things that he does) and seems to think that women & minorities are 2nd class. I'm glad he's gone to Cameron U.

Comment:
This is by far the worst teacher (wouldn't even call him a teacher) I've ever had. Doesn't care at all about what he's doing or the students. Incredibly confusing, doesn't explain anything well. The most unorganized person I've ever seen. Random grading scale that doesn't make sense to anyone... class average was usually 30-50 on all tests.

I've had Mr. Odom for several FINA classes and he's a very nice man and a helpful teacher. He is definitely not the most exciting guy on the planet, but his tests come straight from the book. At least there are no surprises. I made As in all 3 classes and I missed class all the time.

This guy needs a new career. He obviously doesn't care about what he's doing, reads the book all class period, and then tells you nothing about whats gonna be on the test, He just says "test over Ch.5-10 on monday" thats it and your left to fend for yourself and hope you do good, DO NOT TAKE THIS GUY, he's late every day Worst teacher i've ever had

He's a nice man and helpful when I went in to ask questions and advice for studying but he's not a great lecturer! He just repeats the book and tests were not clear, I studied forever and still barely passed. He loves T/F on the tests and you have to be sure to read the book very carefully, remember details!!

Pretty boring lectures, but I was interested in the material so I'm glad I took it. Tests aren't too bad, but you definitely have to read the book. Takes a long time to get grades back. He does seem to know what he's talking about though.

Worst teacher on campus!!! Don't take this man's class ever! You will regret it always! He assumes you understand everything in the book without him having to go over it. One test, the whole class average was a 50, and he did nothing about it or ask what needed to be changed. Needs a new career!

Always late, took forever returning tests. Like a month! I didn't get my final grade for last semester untill the second or third week of this semester (seriously!) His test come straight from the book, he litterally takes an exacto knife and cuts then pastes onto a sheet of paper and photocopies it.

Comment:
He's always late. He doesn't explain things well. He wants you to subscribe to the Wall Street Journal when there is no need. He also has some weird grading scale which means you don't know where you stand until after the end of the semester. If I were a finance major I would change after this class.

This man is a horrible teacher and needs a new job. My last test in the class had an average class grade of 55. He gives no curves or extra credit!
