Really interesting Prof. Passionate about what he does, and involved in relevant issues. Generates good discussion, you will learn a lot. Grading was hard, but you can pass work in as late as you want.

TAKE HIM!!! Amazing teacher, really challenges you to think about issues and perspectives. I think it should be mandatory to take him. He is very fair though he does expect you to be engaged and participate in the class discussions. We had a quiz or journal entry every class, but if you do the reading they are not hard and don't take long.

Comment:

Hands down the best professor I've had at Babson and maybe the best I've ever had. He is charismatic, he cares about his subject and his students, engaging, literally everything. DO THE WORK and you will be rewarded. He gives a lot of work and he's very challenging, but you will learn a lot and he usually teaches great topics.

awesome professor. quizzes every day on the questions he sends out before. tough readings but helps you understand them. the readings are very interesting and he makes it very interesting. does not care about deadlines, you can sent in the essay 1 month late. A tough grader though, but still an awesome guy with humor. one of the best profs.

Intelligent, funny, down to earth and always eager to help. Pushes students to be the best that they can, which means that sometimes you have to go beyond your comfort zone (translation: not an easy A). Go to his office hours if you can and just talk to him, especially on issues of race. It will be well worth your time.

One of the coolest, most down to earth people at Babson, student or professor. Incredibly knowledgeable and willing to connect with students in order to create true learning for both him and his students.

He is an amazing professor. He makes it impossible for you to fall asleep during class- very spirited and passionate about the subject he is teaching. He is quirky and fun, and does a great job explaining his points, however he grades very difficultly. You have to take good notes and attend cclass to do well.

Imbibing the effervescent brilliance of Professor Bruyneel has been the sublime moment of my student career. He is to be commended for his uncompromising insistence upon academic excellence as well as his affable nature. Only take his classes if you are a really good student.

He makes class interesting but he is a very difficult grader. I would not recommend him if you want an A, but if you want an enjoyable class where you learn a lot this one?s for you.

I learned a lot but there was a lot of reading required. He is huge on group discussion. He grades semi hard but if you have him review your paper before it's due he'll help you change it into an A paper.
