Comment:

Professor Christy is a charismatic professor who engages the students very well in class. He sparks conversations and allows people to speak their minds. The homework assignments (business cases) are interesting and the grading is far.

Comment:

This is a therapeutic course eval--almost every class period was used for students to read notes aloud on articles we were already supposed to have read; christy never said anything substantive though he could have; grading was arbitrary and unpredictable. Extremely frustrating, poorly organized, and disappointing.

Comment:

Emerging markets is interesting, but the grading policy is VERY, VERY arbitrary. He also seems to have a special affinity for grad students, who dominate the class. It's difficult to be an anonymous undergrad in this class, as if you don't have a prior relationship with him, you are unfairly disadvantaged.

He is my advisor, i never had him for a class. He is such a wondeful person! I called him at home for my key code one time and he drove all the way back to his office at 9pm to get it for me. He is so helpful!
