  Bridgeford was one of the best teacher I have had. He listens to the students and gives everyone a chance to get a good grade. Has a lot of experience in international business. Not a hard teacher to get a good grade. Take this class!

  easy class, just read the stuff, and you'll do fine. almost everything is done in groups. and if you have an A before the final, you don't have to take it.

  This guy plays favorites and has an ambiguous grading scale for his papers. There is an unannounced "learning" aspect of the paper which he uses to dock those students that he doesn't like. don't try and ask what he means by "learning" either...he doesn't know. all in all, 346 is not bad, not too tough, but bridgeford is a DICK! his humor is actually his release of frustration and might not really be funny at all. my friend had an 89.6 going into the final, and bridgeford wouldn't round it up to a 90 to give him an A. maybe he would have for someone else...

  I really liked Bridgeford. He made a topic that I dreaded to be pretty interesting. He only has 3 midterms, 3 short papers, and 10 quizzes over the quarter that are more to see who's there than to see if you've studied the chapter. The final is optional which was awesome. He gives you guidelines as to how papers are graded so you know what to expect, and his midterms aren't very difficult if you spend some time studying (I only reviewed powerpoints before class). Overall he was a good teacher and I'd recommend him again.

  Stop looking at the ratings and just take him. Darrell is the most entertaining professors I have ever had and he presents the material perfectly clear and he makes the class super interesting. I loved this class so much. It's also super easy, and very entertaining. I'm not going to concentrate in marketing but he made me question this. He looks like robin williams and is about that funny too. you have three exams and three minor papers, and he made our final optional. A solid class, enough said.

  by far one of the best teachers i have taken at calpoly. He is way funny, though his jokes are kind of corny, i think the guy is halrious. The test somewhat hard but he is a very fair grader, and if you go to class you will have no problem getting a B. Go to class and read the book A no problem. I would deff take this guy for any class he teached because i know i will acutaly learn the marterial and be entertained at the same time. Overal a great teacher!!
