He's former member of the Eagles Rock Band with experience in the WI Dells Resorts. But as a non-Bus student, it was really tough to learn Excel. Requires precise excel modeling, Finance knowledge is required. The Exams were just as difficult and very technical with tricky T&F sections. The fun part was semester the RE VALUATION project in Madison.Rate My Professors ↗
It's hard to describe the reasons why, but after taking two classes with Joe, I get the all-around sense that he's a person worth aspiring to be. Class content is very broad and collaborative. The guest speakers in his classes are fantasticRate My Professors ↗
Class was a little challenging but manageable. The lectures were so long and boring. He is a nice guy. The appraisal project was awful. Hopefully you are in a good group for the project, if not you will dread the class.Rate My Professors ↗
Type of guy to aim for 3rd placeRate My Professors ↗
Joe was knowledgeable and kind. He has experience in the field and knows what he is talking about. The appraisal project was disappointing because most people didn't fully understand what was going on until it all came together at the end. His lecture time is mostly used to discuss things other than the lecture material, which was very frustrating.Rate My Professors ↗
Joe is very enthusiastic about his material and is very knowledgeable too. At the beginning of the semester he said he doesn't care about your grades and you shouldn't either, so he disabled grade calculations. Very frustrating when you don't know your grade for the entire class. Lots of homework, projects, and did not lay off around exam time.Rate My Professors ↗
