Comment:

It is not your typical manegment class. He is a hard professor; he teaches about real life, and use politics alot. I suggest reading the book even because you will need it for the three essays that you are gonna have to write. Ask him questions after classes because he does not really explain what you need to do for the essay during class.

Comment:

Is incredibly arrogant. Spends most of lectures ranting about irrelevant topics. Entire grade is based off of a few papers, and he fails to explain what he wants from you in them. Doesn't even grade them if he feels they aren't up to standard, simply puts an R for "Rejection". One of the worst professors I've ever had, I'd recommend staying away.

Comment:

Hands down the worst class I have ever taken. He is extremely boring and nothing he talks about in class has anything to do with the assignments. Graded on 5 papers and nothing else. Very unclear about what the papers are on. He rejects the paper if it isn't up to his standards. He will rip apart your paper in front of the class. Steer clear.

Comment:

This teacher is great... At nothing. Seriously though, if are an insomniac, take his course. His lectures put you to sleep faster than mama's lullabys. Sleeping patterns are restoring immediately after his mouth opens. If you like learning about ancient American history and customers then he is your guy. Seriously though, don't take this man's clas

Comment:

All his assignments were group projects - not good because this is online - many of us work full time andor do not live near campus. His syllabus is not clear and does not show exactly what you will be graded on. One week left in the class and we didn't have any grades - he would reject assignments if the whole class didn't turn them in.

Sales-Makes interesting connections to real like situations that you may not always agree with, however he does it to tech us the reality of the business world. Put your opinions a side, and you will learn and even remeber a lot of useful information- I personally retained more information from this class than many other business classes at WSU

Comment:

He is a good, tough professor. He will teach you a real life material more than just have you read from the text book. I took 3 courses with him and I pay passed all my courses. If your attendant is good, listening, do your homework, and staple his work-paper the right way, you would do fine in his class.

You'll learn a lot as long as you keep an open mind and really listen to what he's saying. He's more than just a professor. You'll learn a lot about yourself too. You'll do great as long as you realize he might be a little hard on you, but that's because he wants you to succeed in the real world.

Comment:

I think Professor Healy could be a great teacher, if you take him in person. I had him for an online course and he refused to explain anything. He wanted you to figure things out for yourself, then would summarily reject your papers if they weren't perfect. I had to redo a single paper no less than 3 times for no real reason. Terrible. Never again.

Comment:

He will not explain things and expects the student to figure out what he wants; office hours are pointless with him. Worst teacher in the business department at WSC and I have had them all. His military background makes him come off as an A-hole. He is just not a happy man and I truly feel bad for him and his way of life. He is very frustrating.

Comment:

I am a straight A student but this teacher is impossible to impress, he will rip you a new one, just because he believes it will make the student better in the long run. I tried very hard in his class but received a B-. One thing about Healy is that he is set in his ways and no one and nothing can change that about him. (Continued on next rating)

Comment:

He is extremely precise in what he wants accomplished and expects a lot from the student. He is brutally honest which makes some students dislike him. Personally, I don't plan on taking another class with him. Even though he only required 3 papers, they were 3 of the hardest papers to write. He's awesome outside the classroom though!

If you want to get anything out of college, take a class with him. He comes off as a real hard--- but listen to what he has to say, a great lecturer.
