Reviews of professor Alan Fudge

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Overall, a great accounting professor. He can be very strict and standoffish at first, but it's mostly to scare you into studying. The lectures themselves are very relaxed but can be a bit fast paced. My biggest piece of advice is to attend office hours as he often misunderstands questions in class. Review the slides and study what he emphasizes.

Take the honors class if you can. I found Alan's teaching style interesting because he goes on tangents in his lectures, but always connects it back to the material somehow, so it ends up being alright for me. I like in the Honors class there is only 1 midterm rather than 2, and the questions are open ended not multiple choice, which I prefer.

Funny guy, always in a positive attitude. Gives great, real-life advice for accounting, business, and personal success matters. Most enjoyable accounting/finance class I have taken so far.

An engaging professor who is very likely to get you at least little bit interested in the concepts taught! Note cards allowed on quizzes and exams, and an extra 2% extra credit for simply drawing on the whiteboard 4 times during class. A lot of material to cover, but not as complicated as financial accounting. Exams are all multiple choice!

For the honors section he improved the class structure so that it benefits the students who are willing to learn. Definitely not an easy class, but he appreciates those who put in a good effort and helps everyone master the material. Convinced me to switch from a finance major to accounting. He goes on tangents in class but still pretty efficient

Starts every class by reading us Wall street journal articles. Fudge is fun to listen to but he moves very fast in lectures and gets off topic easily. You definitely have to follow him through class to stay on track, but the material in itself isn't hard. You just need to know some key formulas and how the numbers work into one another.

This dude is way too hard of a teacher for this course. Honestly, If I had known what I was getting into when I started his class, I would have transferred into anyone else's class. I don't really think he understands how to teach people who don't learn the same way he does and the way he makes decisions for projects just doesn't make sense.
