Obie is a great professor. He is clearly very passionate about his subject material, but sometimes he goes a little too fast when explaining the models we learn in class. Your grade is very dependent on the 3 exams in this course, but thankfully they are curved.

Professor Winslett is an excellent instructor who clearly cares about student success. The course was well-organized and the material was presented in a way that was both engaging and accessible. I came away feeling like I had genuinely learned something valuable. Would highly recommend.

While I've enjoyed this class and the material has been incredibly insightful and interesting, I would not consider myself a fan of the way that It has been taught this semester, while I do believe Sargent to be a competent and effective teacher, her statement that "she had not taught this class in eight years" became apparent early on. Class usually consists of the professor just writing her notes on the board with slight explanation, and then questions from the crowd based on holes in our knowledge. The only semblance of depth I feel we receive in her teaching is the asides she goes on when she talks about the Fed and whatnot
