Even two years later, I still think back on what an awesome prof Righi was. Seriously, what a cool old man. He's great at explaining concepts and applying them to the real-world. I would take every class with him if I could. Funny man, too. Take any chance you have to take a class with him, it's so worth it.

He's the BEST instructor that I've ever had in my entire life. I took 3 classes with him back in 5,6 years ago, and now I'm in graduate school, but I still remember how great he was! I wish all my professors were more like him! :)

Comment:

His class helps me so much in expanding my knowledge about the world economy nowadays (really practical). His tests are all essay questions, most of them are really challenging. But, as always, take notes from his lecture and you will do fine. He is a great person too! Highly recommended for economics!

Best professor at BC bar none. I have taken 2 classes with Righi and wish I could take more. He clearly explains thigs and truely cares about his students. Tests are pretty demanding but you will end up better off after the class is over with. If you have a chance take a class with Righi.

Righi has a great ability of explaining difficult concepts with ease. He is very laid back and funny. You will learn a lot and have fun in the class at the same time. Lots of reading though, so it's important to have some interest in the topic!

Righi is awesome!! Take notes. It will be very useful. Textbook wasn't used very much. He is very helpful and he is willing to help his students receive good scores. He often tells jokes while teaching. Take his class! It's fun and you'll enjoy learning with him!!

LISTEN TO ME. He is the best PROfessor in BC, and I'm about to graduate. If you want to understand economy and enjoy the class, take him. Ive never opened the textbook and got A-, all you need is to listen, make notes, and ask questions. I enjoyed the class a lot! I wish all teachers be like him.

Comment:

Take notes. If he talks about it, it might be on the test. If it's in the book and he doesn't talk about it, it's not. Funny, easy going, more than willing to help either in class or at his office. I wish Righi taught more classes, I would take them all from him. Too bad so many of the younger kids in class won't appreciate how good he is.

Fair guy, just go talk to him during office hours he'll hear you out. Show up for class semi-consistently and you'll be fine. Wiki saved my life in this class, because I hadn't taken any prior econ.

Comment:

Intl Econ. Lots of reading, but lecture is more important. Tests are fair. He is more concerned with your individual improvement than rigid grading, so just go talk to him in office hours, he's a nice guy! Possesses the unique ability to make a lot of information stick without getting stressed out over it, and an A is attainable. I <3 Righi.

If you get the chance to take a class with Righi...DO IT!! Best teacher I have ever had. Don't expect to be able to slack off, his tests are no cake walk, but this guy is SO good at explaining things that if go to class and read the book (not a hard read at all) you will do fine. I am taking Micro with him next semester because he is so cool.RIGIH!

Comment:

Focuses mainly on conceptual learning through lectures. The best instructor I have had at BC. The tests are a workout, but the knowledge gained in his classes is substantial. He has a sense of humor. His only real grading criteria is how much effort you put into learning in his class. He was so awesome, I want to take his classes all over again.

I took 3 classes with him (2 ECON, 1 INST) just because he's THAT awesome. His tests are not easy easy, but if you go to class and pay attention, you'll do just fine. No need to memorize stuff, everything is based on understanding. I love his class. Even though I graduated from BCC last year, but I STILL talk about him to others! I miss Righi! :(
