Reviews of professor David Lucus

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Lucus was an exceptional professor, and seems to actually care about his students. BI is a hard course, but Dr.Lucus was more than willing to explain any questions I had and help figure out why my code didn't work. Go to class, the examples gone over in class are necessary to understand the material.

Do not take this class unless you have a sound understanding about python and web-scraping. Dr. Lucus does not teach the basics or and does not teach how to understand what is required to web-scrape. Do not take unless absolutely needed. Stay away.

Lucus goes a mile a minute and doesn't really care if you are left behind. He may help if you are a top notch in class but if you are one of those you happen to struggle, don't expect him to bend back and help you. He seems to have an attitude, and I don't think it's going to help him who got to teach in the same school from where he got his PhD.

Great professor, he lectures his classes on things you need to know rather than redundant information. He really cares!

Dr. Lucus's first exam required us to perform coding that we had not learned about. Horrible professor. Does not teach how to perform tasks - only reviews his own examples without the explaining the process.

Dr. Lucus will not really pull his punches, so go into class prepared and ready. If you miss lecture then lab days you will be lost. That being said, he gives very good feedback on all of your work if you show you are trying to make it. Don't expect a handout like most business students do.

Dr. Lucus is one of the most caring professors I've had at Rawls. BI is a hard class. He was a bit confusing at first with what he expected on the first assignment but other than that he was great. Pick a good group for the project... it can make or break this class. I learned a lot and it was a valuable experience. Dr. Lucus overall is pretty good

Dr. Lucus made Business Intelligence a great class. He really cares for every single one of his students. If you try and apply yourself, you will do well in his class.
