Comment:

He is a great guy, but he likes to lose money in the market. he likes to give low grades, I mean the average on the exams are 60. just take him if you want to mess your GPA up. By the way YOU won't Learn anything.

Comment:

Do not take teacher, the test are extremely difficult, all essay and problems, no extra credit given, gives you easy homework problems but the hardest test problems. Does not know how to teach it which is the worst part. Half the class withdraws, he will fail you.

Comment:

Professor is very difficult to follow. He does not clearly teach any topic in Investments. I have a lot of interest in this area and he has not encouraged me to further my studies at all. His tests are really difficult and rely too heavily on the newspaper handouts that he gives in class. They are unpredictable in material discussed as well.

Comment:

Investments should be interesting,but he just isn't cut out for the job.He is not clear in what to expect on tests. None of it is from the txtbook. He's def creepy w/ the guys in class.Loves to tell us horror stories on how much $ he lost in the market? Bottom line don't take him, take Flagg. An "A" is now a 94, a joke, UT needs to wake up!

You need to go to class because all the exam material is from the notes and handouts. He gives extra credit quizzes. Exams are from note material!!!

Suggestion is to listen and takes very good notes. See him for homework questions and make sure you understand all facets of the final paper as it is worth more than any test.

Comment:

I find the subject matter very hard to understand and do not think he does a good job teaching it. I do not get it to begin with, but he doesn't explain well, hw assignments are tough, but they don't count for much anyway. For the tests you get to use a small cheat sheet, but they're still very difficult.

Great Teacher so far. To the person below me. The class revolves around your note taking ability & able to understand the information. We are given a cheet sheet card, 3pt font ftw! If you have good notes, you should get a A. Go to Office Hours for HW Help to improve HW score, which are easy points. Total points is roughly 440 points.

Comment:

I'm half way through this semester and you have got to be kidding me. Doesn't teach a thing, mumbles and assumes you know what he does, tests are rediculous and are not relevant to investments. Him being the head of the finance dept doesn't say much for UT

Comment:

Avg. professor. Exams are hard. He's ok. I think he wants to retire, but needs the cash. So he's not to keen on teaching at a high level. They need a Finance overhaul. You'll pass. Play politics, and he'll give you a C. Ok to take.
