Comment:

Professor Holland is professional and rich with knowledge. This class involved reading lots of Harvard case studies but were very interesting! I learned important concepts in every lecture and found his lectures inspirational and fun. He is fair but will challenge you to critically think and show your understanding of concepts. Awesome professor!

Comment:

He is not a helpful professor. He thinks that he is the smartesr guy in the class, he always say there is no right and wrong answer, but he only has one answer in his mind. If you have great points to support your idea, but is not the idea he wants, you will get bad grade

Comment:

The worst ever!I participated every class and never missed any hw. He gave me a 3.0 and gave other student a 3.7 while our answers were exactly same.Do not argue with him-you won't get a reasonable explanation! He will give you very low grade on all your assignments! You do not get to complain about it because he is in charge of the department!

Comment:

This class was really fun because it was completely based on HBS case studies. Mr. Holland has a distinct way in grading, but you'll do find as long as you listen to his feedbacks and stay engaged during class discussions. Don't take his class if you want an easy A!

Comment:

I really felt that his contribution to my education in business was nominal. I took him for macroecon and it really didn't teach me about the subject at all. He tells you how something is and rather than you understanding it and analyzing what's really going on, he just wants you to regurgitate the information he gives you. His exams are HARD.

Comment:

Very knowledgeable about fin. markets and banks, but is very arrogant. There is only 1 correct answer (his). Tests are 100% about memorization of facts/lists/pros+cons and not about concepts. Frustrating. Call-on-me points are 10% of your grade and a waste of time. Interesting subject matter, but boring and ineffective class. Glad it's over.
