Introductory Microeconomics An introduction to the analysis of such microeconomic problems as price formation (the forces behind demand and supply), market structures from competitive to oligopolistic, distribution of income, and public policy options bearing on these problems.

Economics of Agricultural Transition In 1860 farmers made up over half the population of this country and fed about 30 million people.  Today they number 2% of the population and produce more than enough to feed 300 million people.  In this course we will look at the history, causes, and results of this incredible transformation.  While studying the economic forces behind the changing farming structure, we will examine farm production, resources, technology, and agricultural policy.  Field trips to local farms and screenings of farm-related videos and movies will incorporate the viewpoint of those engaged in agriculture. (ECON 0150 or ECON 0155)  2hrs. lect., 2 hrs. lab

Professor Pecsok is a super funny guy and makes class really enjoyable and interactive. I've learned a lot in his class. At times, it can be difficult to understand his explanation about the material, but office hours generally sorts out any misunderstanding. 

It was a good class Pecksock was very passionate and he wanted students to learn, a lot of self study required for his class sometimes he's not exactly the clearest while explaining certain topics or ideas

Pecsok is a very nice guy, accommodating and welcoming, definitely enjoyable to talk to. But his teaching is slightly unclear, not very good at explaining concepts to people who knew nothing abt it. A problem set each week, and several quizzes throughout the semester. Fair grading, and always tries to give you extra credit for quizzes through fun activities. Love his jokes.
