yes, his jokes are great. but this guy has a knack for taking relatively straightforward topics and making them seem like rocket science. on the positive side, he does seem to truly care about the students (despite what he says the first day of class!). i just wished that he could make things seem simpler-- not more complicated than they really are. its just debits and credits you know!

Carla really knows her stuff, but her lectures can be on the dry side sometimes. I guess it is accounting we're talking about here. She has a propensity to move very fast, and although she stops sometimes to see whether the class is on the same page, sometimes she's so far ahead that the students haven't even figured out that they don't know what she's talking about. Her exams are pretty tough, and I suppose it helps if you've taken a few accounting classes before (which I had not, so take this review with a grain of salt). Her homework assignments (case writeups) are pretty straightforward, and some of them are even interesting. The book is laborious though. She is one of the most concerned professors I've encountered however; VERY dedicated to students' learning. She will work with you in her office until you get it (or pretend that you do).

I had Prof Liu for the MBA Core Accounting class. His humor was refreshing, however, he seemed to confuse the students more often than not. For first year students at Anderson, you do not really have the choice to not take his class if he assigned to teach your section (unless you test out), but I think it is good to know that if you have him as a prof - you need to keep him focused on making the learning clear and be sure to ask him to do a review of the coursework - that was the best part of the class.
