LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR! If you procrastinate your work or don't turn something in you're going to struggle. Also…I loved this class. I learned so much from my fellow students and from him. This course does have a heavy work load 2.5 hours worth of reading before each class. It's hard but worth every single second.

Brother Pacini is a good professor overall. In his class you will learn a lot and by doing lots of assignments. I had 8.5 credits this semester and his class made up 90% of the homework I had all semester. I spent about 8 hours every week on his class doing assignments. Despite that he has awesome lectures and gets you thinking in new ways.

BroPa really cares about his students. He is very open to feedback and is willing to change instructions on assignments, quizzes, and even test questions if it is not clear. He believes in accountability and honesty, but that never was a problem because he made learning super fun! The only thing I would say is the first week is rough. Hold on!

BroPa is super helpful! I had this class for his first semester teaching it so there were a lot of bugs. He was always open to feedback and was ready to help at the drop of a hat. He has labs almost every day where students can go ask any questions, and if you can't make it to labs, he has office hours (there is almost always a TA in his office).

This class was a ton of work and took a lot of my time, but it was totally worth it. I felt spiritually lifted through this class and the readings that you have to do twice a week! Getting a A is not difficult if you just turn your assignments in on time and retake the quizzes. Pacini isn't a super hard grader, but he does expect a lot from you.

Best Econ professor (though he's the only one I had). Has fun lectures and goes an extra mile (or 5) to make sure you're ready for the test. There is a lot of homework. I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to econ, so it felt like a part-time job, but that wasn't his fault, I don't have a competitive advantage on homework.

Brother Pacini is a great teacher. The only problem with this course is how it was structured because it was built seemingly from scratch. The homework assignments on Cengage weren't always relevant or didn't explain how to do the problems very well, and it is a lot of information to cram into thirteen weeks. Just be aware that it is a lot of work.

Project based class. Applicable for future classrooms. Prepare to spend about 2+ hours on each project. It stacks up fast. Procrastination and intimidation was my downfall. If you keep on top of the homework and begin a few days in advance, you will be fine. Communicate, Bro Pa wants you to succeed. 0% grades are opportunities to resubmit for 100%.

BroPa is the type of teacher that challenges you while working with you. This class requires effort. You get to watch Bluey with some of your homework assignments too!! He wants you to succeed and grow. That is the best way to explain it. You can't grow by taking the easy way out. So challenge yourself AND have a good time with BroPa's class!

This class was very meaningful to me because it encouraged deep thinking and reflection. While it requires a significant amount of time outside of class for readings, the workload is manageable. I would describe the course as more time-consuming than difficult. That said, it is worth it—I've come away with many valuable life lessons.

Brother Pacini is a good teacher who genuinely cares about his students and what he teaches. -lots of extra credit -cumulative tests -tests are based on quiz questions The homework was long and sometimes felt unnecessary. I felt like some information was glossed over and would have been more relevent in the homework or lecture than what was.

He is impossible to contact. I've made appointments to meet with him many times only to have him show up 30+ minutes late, if he shows up. He has so many weird projects that have nothing to do with the class but take a lot of time. He badmouths his TAs when he thinks no one is listening. The tests are miserable. His class is harder than necessary.

Brother Pacini is a great professor. You will learn a lot in his class, but do know that you will be doing a lot of work. None of it is too hard, mainly time-consuming. The tests are pretty difficult, but he allows you to use flashcards and has labs with the TAs almost every day. He does have lots of extra credit, so take advantage of that.

Professor Pacini is a rewarding and challenging professor. He expects a great deal from his students, but he also provides many opportunities for us to grow and succeed. His tests are difficult, but he offers chances to improve our scores, which shows he genuinely wants us to understand the material rather than just earn a grade.

Highly unprofessional. Comes late to his own class every day. Doesn't follow through with appts. Doesn't answer emails. Has weird and unethical assignments (conditioning other people, solving a rubix cube, etc). Doesn't get through everything in class, so he says to watch his video outside of class, too. Full of himself. Overwhelms his TAs.

Brother Pacini is a good professor, you can tell that he enjoys his job and finds teaching rewarding so being one of his students feels enjoyable for this reason. He is very spontaneous and gives interesting lectures which is good if you struggle with being engaged. I will say that his class did have a lot of work required so be prepared to read.

He comes to class giving his students all his attention and energy. The reading material and lectures don't always align/same things are not covered in the same week and you will have to go through the textbook. He is fair and gives a lot of grace when it comes to getting work done and turning it in. Don't get behind and go in with an open mind.

He's super nice & cares. He doesn't teach everything-what he does gets skimmed through. Spends time on things that don't seem to matter which leads him to rush content. Some assignments & readings felt like they didn't teach much & were just busy work. If you do the work/study you'll get an A. He listens and tries to improve which I admire a lot

He is overly energetic, which is a lot for those struggling with social anxiety. His class requires tons of work: reading, YouTube videos, note taking, Saturday experiments or projects, quizzes, tests, Friday seminar (although that one is optional).

He is honestly a great teacher, and really cares for the students.

Brother Pacini honestly changed my outlook on both school and life. His readings killed me because 2 hours of pre-class reading was required for each class, but it was very rewarding when I finished them. The quizzes set up the exams nicely, and Bro Pacini is understanding. This class is hard, but so very worth it (and I am a heavy procrastinator).

Brother Pacini is one of the best professors I've had while here on campus. Beware that you need to know the material inside and out, and I personally felt that while I did enjoy his lectures, I also had to go through the textbook and use that to create my notecard rather then using the notes I had from his lectures. But toooons of extra credit!
