Wouldn't take again

Worse marketing class I've taken in all my 3 years, I would suggest you avoid at all cost! The prof seems caring at first but he is very unhelpful. He barely taught anything, he kept rambling about random stuffs. There are not much materials to learn from to be prepared for the final. He's a very random and tough grader.

The most unorganized professor ever. I'm partially convinced he did not grade all the material and estimated the grades.

His classes very likely translate better in an in person setting. Online, his lectures seem to feel even longer and the workload is obviously a bit much, although he does give a warning. Still, it is more than you would think. Avoid if you can, even though he is a nice guy. No satisfaction when finishing the class, just relief its over.

If you don't put effort into the assignments and readings, your grade will reflect that. He's very helpful if you reach out outside of class, which I highly recommend doing because it helps understand what he looks for in terms of graded materials. Classes can be lecture heavy, but he brings in amazing guest speakers and is overall super nice.

Although he seems like a nice guy at first, this is probably THE hardest grader I've ever had in my academic career. Assigns 5 readings per week (of 10 pages each), lengthy assignments due every 2 weeks, gigantic group project, midterm, and final. Just so you know how tough he grades, I got every answer right on my midterm, yet got a 55. AVOID!

Lots of homework

Mr. Barbieri fosters group projects and promotes the students assistance to conferences from referents of the Sports Marketing industry. He is both passionate and strict.

This guy is a piece of work. Takes attendance TWICE in class, nit picks on minute details in papers or criticizes the entire thing generally without providing specific information. He also assigns a lot of readings, as if his students have no other classes to take. This man takes what should be an enjoyable class and sucks all the fun out of it.

This teacher has no idea what he's doing or how to teach. He's out of touch with modern teaching styles. No explanations for grades and nit picks every detail.
