Titus is a tough grader. We literally had 4 assignments and the participation does not count toward final grade. His exams are super hard he said that he makes them hard on purpose. He does not respond to emails.

Comment:

Wish I could give him a zero. Literally the worst professor Ive ever had. Only 4 grades the entire semester, 3 tests and 1 group project. He never gives a rubric or a clear outline for the 20+ page paper we have to write for the project. Is super unhelpful and doesnt care about his students. Lectures are boring. Avoid at all costs.

Comment:

If you miss class you really won't pass. He does not give out the lecture slides, and the notes that you take in class are all that you are going to get all semester. There are 3 tests including the final, and one group project, but all of the grading criteria and rubrics are incredibly vague.

Comment:

Do not take Titus. Each exam is worth 25% of your grade, and then a group project that is essentially a 20 page paper about nothing. He says participation is important, yet only gives 5 points for it total. Unless you write down everything he says every class, you cant get an A because he posts no notes, does no homework, and doesnt pass back exams

Comment:

Titus is probably the worst prof at BGSU. He only gives 4 assignments that are graded. 3 exams and one Project, the project we were not given any rubric or clear guidelines. His lectures are boring and hard to sit through. He claims the book isnt important but then test over specific lines in the text.

I really enjoyed this class! The real world examples helped me remember key concepts well. Additionally his lectures are never boring. I will say the tests were challenging and taking good notes is absolutely essential.

Comment:

Titus has great intentions and wants to see each student succeed. However, this is NOT the class to take if you aren't creative. You literally have to have a genuine passion for creativity, especially creative thinking. Exams are TOUGH. The study guides alone will not give you 100s. You really need to think from his point of view. Not pleased.

Comment:

Titus is one of the most intelligent professors in the CBA. He knows his stuff and his lectures always teach you something. His classes are hard because he wants them to be. Tip: Know EVERY possible synonym for every "vocab/buzz" word he uses. His tests are full of synonyms (and typos). They will hit you hard if you're not ready. Take GOOD notes.

Comment:

The only grades you have for the semester are 3 tests and a big group project. If you struggle with one test or get a bad group your grade will take a big hit. Tests are really tough, you learn that nothing he says in class really pertains to the tests and you must read the book (which he never mentions) in order to pass.

Dr. Titus has been one of my favorite teachers at BGSU. He makes the material very interesting and relates concepts to real-life marketing situations. Take this class if you have interest in Marketing because you will need to take good notes and attend each class to do well.

One of the best professors I have had. Uses lots of real world examples to clarify the material. Makes material you might not be interested in, interesting. Only grades are three tests and a group projectpresentation. You must take notes in this class or you will fail. He doesn't post the powerpoints, so make sure you pay attention.

Comment:

I honestly think that the content of this class is extremely interesting, however don't go in expecting an A based on the fact it is about Creativity. The exams are difficult and if you don't take extremely diligent notes there is no other way to review information on your own due to no book or provided notes. Take Pass Fail if possible.

Comment:

Titus loves teaching his students, that is, of course, if you happen to be a natural born marketer. He doesn't even try to hide the fact. He'll even tell you "marketing is not for everyone!" He's like an elitist of the marketing world. You don't share his passion for the subject, then get the heck out! His exams are extremely tough.

Comment:

Titus has to have the highest expectations of his students of any professor I have taken. Seems like a great guy but a hard professor to take. Gives study guides for tests, but maybe 50% of the test is on that material. Three tests and a HUGE project that takes 2/3 of the semester to do if you work diligently. Wouldnt recommend to my worst enemy.

Comment:

Dr. Titus class is really fun. You actually do not feel as if you are in class. He goes over lecture, and it is NOT structured, but if you write down everything he says and READ THE ARTICLES assigned you will do just fine on the exams, which are said to be hard, but if you take good notes and study them then you'll do just find. I recommend!!

Decent teacher, grades pretty hard though. Class doesn't have a whole lot to do with creative marketing (despite the name), just lots of pointless brainstorming and old irrelevant articles to read...

Comment:

Well I am a self-proclaimed nerd, and even I found this to be the most difficult class ever. The expectation level is insane, and you are not provided much in class instruction. But he will help you in depth if you visit his office and he is a great guy. But take notes on EVERYTHING, do not miss a class, and as said before, plan to spend many hours

Comment:

If you don't feel like busting your ass, RUN. He is almost unrealistic in his expectations. The group project is almost unmanageable. His tests are designed to fail you unless you actually have ALL of your noted memorized. He seems like an alright guy, but be prepared to put 3 times the amount of work into this class that you do into any other.

Comment:

This teacher might be the most confusing teacher you will ever have. However, he knows exactly what he is talking about. You will have no idea what to study for for the exam so DO NOT skip class or you'll miss a lot of information
