1. Rating on Cindy Jones in the German department
Teaching Ability Availability Helpfulness Workload* Opinion: 2301 - Literally the Best German Professor Here. She tries her hardest to ensure every one of her students learn German. Only criticism, she is not an easy A. You need to put in a plethora of effort. If you want easy (relative) A, take Dr. Weiner. - Grade In Class:A Date Listed: 2025-11-24
2. Rating on Michael Mowchan in the Accounting department
Teaching Ability Availability Helpfulness Workload* Opinion: ACC 4330 (Audit) - Audit - Mowchan is an interesting guy. He says he is mainly at Baylor for research purposes, which I wouldn’t say affects the way he teaches, but does maybe explain some of his awkwardness. Pretty dry sense of humor and you might have trouble getting him to answer your questions in a helpful way. It’s like he wants to make you solve a riddle any time you ask something. He does still know the material quite well and explains things multiple times always. He encourages you to watch portions of the lecture and read the textbook the night before (not required) which can help if you find yourself struggling. The volume of material and the pace at which you go through it is similar to intermediate, as it can be a lot. As for the structure, the outside work is very group-based, as there is no daily homework, but there are easy chapter quizzes you work on before class with your 2 other partners then take in class on your computer with them. You work with these same partners on the semester long practice version of an audit of a company called Oceanview, where you do a different part every week based off what you learn in class. It’s 15% of your grade and he grades super ticky tacky so it’s hard to get 100, but you won’t do bad unless you forget to do it. Tests are obviously the biggest hurdle and are a real grind (usually 40 MC and 2-3 exercises), but averages do actually get better after the 1st one because the material builds. Nice guy and a more than passable class. - Grade In Class:B+ Date Listed: 2025-11-24
3. Rating on Laurie Burney in the Accounting department
Teaching Ability Availability Helpfulness Workload* Opinion: ACC 4308 (Managerial) - Managerial - Burney is one of a kind. She has a wicked east TN accent and shoots you straight. She has a very different perspective given her managerial accounting credentials and work experiences and definitely favors industry as an alternative to students going into public. Has a ton of neat stories when she gets off-topic. She has taught this stuff forever and knows her material very very well and just wants to help students understand accounting and business function more generally with her class. As for the structure, class time is not spent lecturing via slides but is entirely spent on practical workout problems similar to what you’ll do on a test. There are some conceptual MC on tests, but you never have to do reading for them if you just pay attention all class. She covers a lot of chapters and goes pretty quick with them, but the workload is not bad at all. There are McGraw Hill Connect chapter problems due every week, but they don’t take long and are good practice. There are also usually 1-2 smallish Excel projects a month she throws in that are easy points too. Tests are mostly workout problems in very small subsections for each topic with lots of partial credit, so they’re not bad if you practice enough that you can do them from scratch. All in all, very nice lady who just cares a ton about her students and her subject. - Grade In Class:A Date Listed: 2025-11-24
4. Rating on Porter Amanda in the Business department
Teaching Ability Availability Helpfulness Workload* Opinion: BUS 3315 - Business Communications - Mixed bag here. Mrs. Porter is a really nice lady who means well, but man this class sucks. She knows her material very well, but when we’re doing basic lectures they are very dry with minimal participation. She needs to implement a no tech policy for those portions because almost everyone would tune out and be on their phone/computer when she just talked from her slides. This wound up being a COIL class, which meant working with Ukrainian students for 2 months on a project you do most of the work on. It was essentially building a startup company from scratch that you could pitch to investors to get it off the ground. You meet at 7am with your group on most Wed mornings, which sometimes meant you have no normal class, but somehow meant you would have both some days. Thankfully, when there isn’t assignments due there are no mandatory readings or busy work HW. There are also no exams in this version of the class since the grade is partially based off COIL stuff and then partially based off assignments like writing emails. She grades way too hard on these and knocks off points for small things, which makes getting a 93 and a real A actually difficult. Tough to be too harsh because she is nice and might’ve gotten thrown into this mess, but avoid her if you can. - Grade In Class:A Date Listed: 2025-11-24
5. Rating on Brett Moore in the Business department
Teaching Ability Availability Helpfulness Workload* Opinion: BUS 4385 - Strategic Management - Pretty lame class. Brett is definitely interesting with regard to his experience and his stories. He worked under Drayton McLane forever and last worked at Magnolia so he shares some neat insights there. However, it just doesn’t really translate to his teaching ability. The lectures are very low effort and honestly seem to be slides made straight from AI. The unfortunate part is every time there’s elements of participation where he asks about companies and strategies, students just type the questions in and spit out what AI tells them. It’s like the initial stages of a dystopian classroom experiment where everyone is a robot. He undoubtedly would benefit from a no-tech policy to keep everyone off their computers while he speaks. As for the structure, this class also has the worst form of busywork maybe in educational history, with those dreaded McGraw Hill Smartbook assignments that have 30+ topics for every chapter due at least 1x a week. It is also group-based where you work with your row of 3-4 people to compete in this Business Strategy Game. You run a fake shoe company for 10 weeks and have a set of operational decisions by then end of every week to build a successful company and get higher numbers than your classmates. It is so overwhelming at first because there’s 10 different sections/tabs to customize, but once you learn how they all work with each other (watch Youtube videos to do this) it becomes something you can do in 10-15 minutes every week to set it and forget it. There are also 2 exams that thankfully aren’t worth a ton, but are awful since they are take home, but are Lockdown Browser + webcam and just consist of 50ish MC questions based off the slides and Connect material. The worst part is you can know your stuff and use common sense and still not do great because it’s not a handwritten test and there are 5 answer choices all written way too similarly. Overall, he’s a nice guy but is not meant to be a teacher and needs to just step away and enjoy retirement. - Grade In Class:A Date Listed: 2025-11-24
6. Rating on Dakota Smith in the Information Systems department
Teaching Ability Availability Helpfulness Workload* Opinion: MIS 3305 - Information Systems - Pretty standard stuff from a new teacher. You can tell he’s definitely getting his feet under him and has trouble commanding a classroom. The material is incredibly boring to most students since MIS is a smaller major and the dry humor doesn’t always play well. He would benefit greatly from a no tech policy, as every class is spent lecturing from slides with very rare participative elements, so everyone spends the whole class on their phone/computer and are oblivious when he does want an answer to his question. Thankfully, the workload is very easy, as there is no homework at all and just chapter quizzes on Pearson that you can take twice and see your answers (so you can get 100%). The exams are not the worst even if you don’t pay attention, they are 50ish MC questions and are taken in-class on Lockdown. They just require you to hunker down and study a day or two before to learn the terms and go back to memorize old quiz questions. There is also a group project done and presented the last week or two of class, but is only worth 6% of your grade. Overall, an awkward but very knowledgeable and nice dude who you can do fine with if you try. - Grade In Class:A Date Listed: 2025-11-24
7. Rating on Mark Flinn in the Anthropology department
Teaching Ability Availability Helpfulness Workload* Opinion: 1306 - Professor Flinn is one of the nicest people I have ever met. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about the field of anthropology. The coursework consists of around 10 quizzes throughout the semester and three book reviews. The book reviews aren't really reviews, they are just very short and very easy quizzes that ask very broad questions about the book, so I just looked up book summaries for them because I did not have the time to read them through completely. During class, we mostly watch documentary films and listened to his comments on them. You do need to pay attention to some of the documentaries, as some of the quizzes have questions about specific films we watched in class. Most of the films are available online for free through Alexander Street. Overall, this class is very easy to manage, I but the bare minimum into most of my work and I have a 96% right now (though he still needs to grade a few things). I highly recommend taking Professor Flinn, he is such a treasure! - Grade In Class:A Date Listed: 2025-11-22
8. Rating on Stephen Jugg in the History department
Teaching Ability Availability Helpfulness Workload* Opinion: 1300 - If you want a distinctive classroom experience, rather than just an easy core course, Jug's section will scratch that itch. He combines diplomacy simulations with propaganda group analysis in class to make the 75 mins seem like 45. We just finished the last one, and all four were fun (TBH I was in the winning group 2/3 times, but if you have a good group, a great time if you have a good group but don't win). He can talk fast, but posts slides and can be pretty funny in his lectures. 4 announced quizzes, one paper, 4 short responses, and a final, along with the simulations. He knows so much about European history, I might take another class just for more simulations and to ask him more questions about Germany. - Grade In Class:A Date Listed: 2025-11-22
9. Rating on Robert Reed in the Philosophy department
Teaching Ability Availability Helpfulness Workload* Opinion: PHI 1306 and PHI 3301 - Reed is one of those unique professors who is able to share his life experience and use it to teach really good lessons summed up in a way that are easy to be understood. I really enjoyed his courses! - Grade In Class:A Date Listed: 2025-11-22
