Liam isn't a bad dude he just teaches a very unfortunate class. This course is probably the biggest waste of time in the UW business program and I walk out of every class feeling like I learned absolutely nothing. It doesn't help that Liam takes centuries to grade any assignment and there are tons of random unclear assignments constantly

He's an ok guy, but his class is impossible to follow. Like IMPOSSIBLE. There are a million different big assignments he doesn't tell us about ahead of time until like two days before they're due. He yaps about useless topics in lecture. The directions to the assignments are SO unclear, and he's a tough grader. would not recommend at all.

Professor Kane-Grade is an incredible professor! I learned so much from taking his course. The class is hard, with a lot of assignments, but I received a lot of helpful feedback that prepared me well for the final project. Definitely recommend taking the course with him!

Just save yourself and avoid at all costs. Never grades anything, no clear guidelines, insane amount of work.

Hoping WSB will follow through on changing or removing this class. The amount of outdated pointless busy work assigned for simple concepts is almost unbelievable, and the instructions are so unclear that the professor himself seems to hardly understand them. Incredibly slow and nitpicky grader. Get ready to have a LOT of your time wasted.
