Comment:

Great guy, good teacher. I had absolutely NO interest in economics, and still did well. He gives a note packet for the whole semester on day 1, no need to buy the book. He jokes with the class, but stays on topic for the most part. Will explain anything you ask for, and goes over tests the class before, telling you exactly what you need to know.

I don't know what these people are talking about! If you have a brain in your head you will find this guy interesting and learn a ton from him. I'm a returning student that enjoyed the class very much.

Comment:

He is a smart nice cute little man but he is so boring. I actually feel like I won't live to see the end of class. He stands up in front of the class and talks the whole time, and draws a graph that makes no sense about every 5 minutes. However, you will pass the class because even though his tests are so hard everyone fails, he puts a huge curve.

Comment:

Don't take this professor if you want to stay awake in class. Its extremely boring, however, he does spoon feed you the answers to all the tests the day before. If your there for review then you will do good on the tests. You do absolutely no work in class, or out of class (besides the research paper). So, hes an easy teacher but extremely boring.

Comment:

Although he goes off on way too many tangents, he's interesting to listen to and practically gives you all the answers to the test the day before. You learn absolutely nothing in class, but if you read the textbook and teach yourself, you should do okay. Oh, and ask him about his dictionary.

Comment:

He will be retiring in December. Economics is like a hybrid of English and Math. Lots of material to learn. He does review for tests, but unless you really understand the review you are screwed.

Comment:

If your one who wants to learn, then DO NOT TAKE HIME. If you need a B or A then take him because he gives you the answers to all the tests as long as you can keep up with his speed reading. Says his test are easy, but in reality, they are not all that easy unless you teach yourself the material. Real bad accent also and poor english from him.

Comment:

Class is very boring and hard to pay attention because of it. He reviews great for his tests giving you all the answers and claims the test is easy. Its not as easy as he says. the notes are given to you which is good. I do not recommend him.

One of my fondest HVCC memories (in class at least) was when Mr. Nagy read all the definitions for "shit" from his dictionary. Classic.

Comment:

The class was always interesting, and Mr. Nagy is hilarious--especially when he'd bring in the dictionary he's writing. He would always grade on a curve, making it easier to get a good grade.

Good Guy but tests do not reflect class discussion, or maybe they do but the line to connect the two is very indirect

The guy is pretty nice but is really boring. He reviews for tests before hand but since he is unclear its hard to follow what he saying. Overfall not a terrible class, just bring lots of coffee it makes it much easier to stay awake.
