Do not take this class if you are often late or absent. Grade consists of 3 WSJ article analysis, 1 group presentation, 3 quizzes, midterm and final. Overall, very entertaining professor. He has many stories to share.

Amazing teacher. Absolutely not an easy one though, but you will learn a ton and have a good time doing it. He's got some pretty good stories, and loads of experience in the business world, so listen to him. You will have to do a group presentation about starting a business, but it's not that bad at all.

Interesting class. Concepts covered are easy and straightforward. Attendance is required, but Prof Nichols makes the class interesting. He certainly doesn't take himself too seriously, which creates a fun learning atmosphere. Show up, pay attention and you'll get an A.

Prof Nichols is great. He didn't cover a lot of content in the course, but drilled in a few specific theories/principals. Can't skip class, must pay close attention to instructions on assignments. Fair grader. Easy to get an A if you pay attention and do the work. Lectures are interesting and notes posted after each class. Great BUS302 class.

EASY! Do all the reading assignments and review his notes. You will do fine! Make sure you do all hmwk assignments. He is not that hard of a grader on essays. Just make you proof read it and you will be fine. I am not a gr8 writer and I did extremely well. Make sure for gp prez you make him laugh because that will sure get you a passing grade.

He comes from the land of Awesome, and he will get you to laugh and learn throughout the semester. I would recommend him heavily over the other two "stiffs" CSU put in charge of BUS 302. 1 exams, one paper 10 pgs max, 3 random biz quizzes (1 before midterm, 2 after midterm), and 3 bus. analysis papers 1 pg long max.

Great professor! he is very funny, his lectires and pwerpoints are very well done. The expectantions for this class are crystal clear and a fair work load for a 2 unit course. Attendance is MANDATORY after one absence you lose 2% of your final grade for each absence. I recommend this class!

Great professor who really knows his stuff. You definitely have to know how to write to do well in this class. Attendance is mandatory and there is one presentation, a midterm, and comprehensive final. Nichols does have random quizes but they help you in the long run.

Knows what he is talking about, one of the best professor's I have ever had! Attendance and writing skills are a must but would take him again if I could. If you are interested in current events take his class!

I don't understand the bad reviews... This class does require a lot of work for a 2 unit class, but all Bus302 classes do. Nichols is awesome, and makes the lectures very entertaining. Attendance is mandatory, and you MUST know how to write. Look at it this way... he had 24 people trying to crash this semester. Great professor. Take him if you can.

What's up with the blond hair blue eyes comment? He was nice with EVERYONE. If you're writing skills suck, then you're screwed with any bus302 teacher. Very fair, know your current events! Very nice, will pick on you if you're shy, but not in a mean spirited way. Easy going guy.
