Comment:

Easily the best professor I've had at MTU. I would say that Michigan Tech's professors do not care about you for the most part, until I took this class with Mari. Three weeks into the semester she helped me out so much with something that had nothing to do with class, and I had just met her. I hope I can take a class with her again.

Great professor. I had Mari for both MIS200 and MIS3100 and enjoyed both. She cares about her student's grades and wants them to succeed. One of the best professors in the business department.

Comment:

She is nice enough but doesn't really know how to use Canvas so be prepared to search for your assignment instructions and things of that nature. Class is quite easy but honestly could have passed if I never attended. She talks way to much about herself and leaves little time for the actual content of the course.

Comment:

Dr. Buche is a nice professor and is very knowledgeable, but her class is rather dry. It's pretty much monotonous slide shows. Papers aren't really difficult but are time consuming given how sensitive she is when it comes to grammar. She is a stickler for proper structure. I got an A but I do wish there was more "life" in the course.

She's awesome, plain and simple. Very nice, very fun, easy to pay attention to. Plays music from Youtube at the start of every class. She brings treats and rewards for those who deserve them. I learned a lot in her class and I wasn't even trying to! Great teacher, would definitely recommend.

Sweet lady! She's super nice and really helpful. Brings treats and prizes to class sometimes. Exams aren't really hard if you just skim the chapters and do the study questions online. There wasn't much work we were assigned, so as long as you go to class and pass the tests, the class is pretty easy.

Very easy class for CS majors, but presented very well so that anyone can learn the material. Exams are mostly mc and pretty easy. She will help you outside of class. Dr. Buche also brings in food and prizes for students! Very friendly - I would recommend this professor and class.

She gives her personal experience from the many jobs that she has held. CS majors should definitely take this course because you don't need to study much for at least 2 of the 4 exams. Brings donuts!

GREAT lady! Always positive, brings food to share with the class on almost a bi-weekly basis. Pretty easy class as long as you know computers already. But it's also not hard to pick the material up. She'll help you, too, if you're sturggling! Choose Mari, not Endsley!! NEVER ENDSLEY!

Comment:

Couldn't be any nicer. She's very understanding if you have problems with your projects and assignments and she will work with you to make sure that you do well. 3200 material is very boring, but her exams are easy and she does practically everything in her power to make sure you get an A, so long as you show up 70% of the time and do your work.

Got my A/B in BA4200 from her. Super nice, and actually over qualified. Read her fricking CV... it's a novel practically. Very clear, brings donuts sometimes. PLUS... she helped me get my job. Mari Rocks!

Comment:

She's incredibly nice, but her class is pretty boring. Expect to discuss things like ethics, IS business practice, etc. I suspect her tests just come from the textbook manufacturer. Do your best to attend, contribute occasionally, complete your assignments (including the final project), and you should be fine.
