Everyone has to take Cornerstone, fortunately I got lucky. He is very straight forward with assignments and an easy grader. With the hard tests by Callarman, Viggiano makes it possible to get an A

Charlie is AWESOME! He turned a 4 hour summer course into a 45 minute class. Very straight forward guy. Easy assignments. Kept class VERY interesting and entertaining! He is a really nice guy!

Very good guy. Makes it possible to get a very decent grade in what would normally be a very difficult course. Very helpful, makes class interesting, good stories. I'll definately take this guy again if I get the chance.

Great class and with his new goat, he looks like brad pitt in ocean's 11.

Charlie is the best!

Charlie is hands down a class act with an extreme level of professionalism. He brings in real life situations that will protain to life after UCF. He also adds a twist of fun that all professor should have. Thanks for everything Charlie! Great classes!

Hilarious! He makes this class worthwhile, the lecture part is so repetative, but cornerstone is required. A little kooky by some standards but a great guy with great stories. A teacher who believes it is professional to curse. A great guy

Charlie was a great teacher!! I learned a lot and he does kinda look like Brad Pitt in Ocean's 11!

awesome teacher. easy B or A, depending on your group. makes a very hard class easy and fun. do not take anyone but him for cornerstone, it is worth the drive to PB or COCOA.

Great guy, very down to earth, tests are a little hard but over all great class, good stories, makes capstone fun

Great Professor. The class is hard in general, but Charlie makes it fun. I actually enjoyed Cornerstone, because of his stories and teaching methods. The best day of class is when he lectures about "How to buy a car", the best lecture I ever heard. I recieved an A, but I worked my butt off. Just wor

Mr. Viggiano's lectures have a real-world application that makes his classes interesting where you learn alot. His tests are hard but fair and he gives lots of feedback and is very helpful.

great class!

Nice guy. He will help you if you ask. Makes things easy to understand. Take him for as many Management classes as possible.

great

V IS THE MAN! He focuses more on real world principles rather than textbook material. Do go to class though because he tests on his own stories related to companies. Also, leave your cell phone off or he'll answer it in front of the entire class. Other than that, he's very down to earth with the students.

i love charlie!

great teacher! make sure you come to class, because if you're a slacker, he's gonna get ya.

Very interesting class. His story's are good, and some of the movies are too. You watch alot of videos and alot less lecture, so its GREAT!! He gets to the point and lets class out early. Easy exams....

The class was easy and the teacher was great, but if you like Wal-Mart, watch out because he constantly bashes it and so do the ultra-liberal Target freaks in the class (there are a lot of them too).

Really easy class as long as you go. 1/3 of his test questions are from his stories in lecture. Definitely take him he saves the class from getting really boring.

He's so adorable!!! He's young which makes him a really cool person to listen to, his stories are funny, the class is easy, and youre out of there in like 30 minutes. Definitely take him over anyone else!

GOign to class is required. He tells stories which make up a good portion of the exam. His stories are usually entertaining. Uses powerpoint (and reads straight from it). The class is ridiculously easy. Barring any mental incapacities on your part, you should get an A.

GREAT teacher. He gives in class "stories" go to class and you'll have about 50% of the tests. Skim over chapters/pp slides and you're good to go. Funny funny guy! =)

Take this class if you have to take management and don't really care to learn anything. I heard other professors actually it seriously. I hardly ever went to class, never read the book, just looked at slides. When you do go to class, he just reads the slides, adds nothing, just reads the slides, i can do that at home. Sometime he showed movies.

He is a funny instructor, reads slides and adds a few stories to help in the exam. Tests are a little unclear...basically, memorize the slides and go to every class so you don't miss any details from his stories...cause you never know what he's going to ask.

funny, but he actually teaches stuff you can use with his stories instead of just from a book

he is awesome! my class was streamcast over the internet, and we could watch it whenever. 1) convenient and 2) helpful when studying. he is really funny and tells a lot of stories that he actually tests you on. he doesnt waste your time feeding you useless information. id definately take him again!

A great teacher, very entertaining! He actually applies the course material to real-life situations which makes the class more interesting! Pay attention to his stories, about 1/3 of the test will relate just to those stories. I definately recommend this teacher! Watched the lectures from home...very convenient!

The class is definitely fair with respect to the exams. You read the slides, go to/watch the lectures online, and write down the stories/company examples then you should be good to go. Only 3 exams and NO extra credit. Make sure you study for each exam or you might F it up and get a B.

Easy class

I got a B- an A is very possible- You have to listen to what he says- he uses tons of company examples that are not in the book- tests are 40% definitions from the book & 60% examples he gives in class. His personal stories make class interesting- good teacher

well he is interesting. company examples r big on his tests. just pay attention n ull b fine.

To pass this class just know everything about SouthWest Aitlines company. He loes it so much that mentions almost every lecture. PS: I guess he gets paid some kind of comission form them for commercial to UCF students. Just joking... Nice teacher!

cool teacher likes to tell stories but u need to know them, most of the test is on the stories

DON'T LISTEN TO THE 1ST POST! I thought he was super easy, test are mostly on the stories, but go to class, write what he tells u too, and you'll do fine! Usually lets you out early to do your "internet assignments", which are super easy and you dont really even have to do them.

Here's the way to get an A: go to class, take notes on ALL company examples he says, do the study guides for the exams and make note cards and you'll be set!

Got a B but learned a lot. Hey prior post dude, you spelled boring wrong.

all of class lectures placed on the website so you don't even have to go. and he tells you everything thats going to be on the test. he pretty much hands you your grade. plus he's just a cool guy. i thought he was awesome, and it doesn't get any easier than this class

He is a great professor; his tests are not hard; if you want to get an A, study the text (some scenario questions might require text reading) and make sure you know the company questions. He is NOT hard if you put an effort to study.

NICE GUY! Take him, you will be glad :) ....You DO need to go to class though b/c tests come from things he says too.

great teacher. funny!

Charlie is the sweetest teacher ever. He is so laid back and go with the flow. doesnt use up all the class time which works out well becasue most of his classes are 3 hours...you wont be upset if you take him especially for cornerstone

Awesome teacher. Very laid back and tries to help the students as much as he can. Fights for the students when he thinks the cornerstone board is being unfair. Def would take him again. Tests are only hard because he doesnt write them but grades everything else easy.

VERY VERY NICE TEACHER ! MATERIAL WASNT TOO CLARIFIED TO ME YET YOU CAN TAKE THIS CLASS WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED ! ROCK ON VIGGIANO !!! VERY NICE DUDE ! CARES ABOUT SCHOOL, STUDENTS AND HELPS OUT A LOT !

Excellent teacher! Tests are not hard, but you do have to actually study to pass. Very cool guy, tells a lot of stories that are on the test so take notes!!!!!

Needed Capstone to graduate but failed it the first time on Main campus. was worth going to cocoa to take it with Charlie!

Charlie is a nice guy, someone I would love to play poker with---BUT NOT A PARTICUALRLY GOOD INSTRUCTOR. He reads power point notes to the class, then he will occasionally tell "company example stories" that are on the tests. I got an A, but it was not a very exciting or fun class. If he works on being more insightful he could be great...

What a cutie! This class is awesome too. He has good points and helps you learn and remember them by relating the text info to real life situations. Excellent professor I would drive out to Brevad to take him again.

Very easy A. You don't really have to go to class, just watch the video online. The first two test were very easy, but the final was much harder. You need to know the companies stories or you won't pass the class. Never keeps you for the entire class period.

One of the greatest teachers I have had. You do need to attend class to listen to his "in class stories", they make up most of the tests. But he is enjoyable and he doesn't keep you any longer than he needs to in class.

I didn't like this class and i didn't buy the book... watch the lectures for the stories if you take it ASC like i did... I made my study guides of all the stories and basically everything from the powerpoints and I got an A with soem studying... Not that hard but i didn't like this class at all

If you don't care about learning take him! What a waist of money! I am a 3.95 GPA student and in this class I only learned where to buy a vacuum (if I want to return it!) and I memorized CEO's names!! I just wonder how this info will be useful in the real world and how it will help me to find a better job. Perfect teacher for elementary school

Easy Class, great teacher. Dont go to class, just watch the video online. Whole grade is composed of 3 tests total, no assignments or papers or anything. Remember the company examples he uses because theyre on all the tests. He curves on them too. His lectures are pretty intersting and fun.

extremally easy class...dont even bother going to lecture just watch it at home...take notes on company examples and study the power points...Easy, Easy, Easy!!! this class makes me wonder why people go for a management major since you can't get a management job unless you have previous experienced and it doesn't necessary requires a degree...

I'll tell you what, Viggiano is the man. He's a fun teacher, keeps the classes exciting and mostly, he doesn't make you suffer through boring lectures. Classes are not too long and he gives you a week to take the test in the computer lab. Keep up with the message boards, great study guides. Went to two classes all semester, pulled a C+.

Like the others said, Viggiano is THE MAN! He is so nice and I almost feel bad because his class is so easy. He loves telling stories, Bed Bath & Beyond, and SW Airlines. Story questions are on tests and make up 1/2 of the final exam. Curves tests. I would have driven to Cocoa from main to take him for Capstone, but he didnt teach my last semester

he is AWSOME!!! he loves students and does everything to make sure you do well, dont buy the book just print out the slides and go over those for the exams half the exams are stories he tells anyway and he is soo funny. if he doesnt tell you his smoking story ask. carpool to cocoa if you have to he is worth it

He is the best professor I have had. Take him!

He is the BEST professor and a great guy.

As far as I'm concerned Viggiano is the only professor to take the cornerstone lab with. If you don't take it with him then you are a fool. He's understanding, the class isn't stressful, and he's on the students side.

I drove to cocoa every monday just to take his class.I was a bit dissapointed that I had to do a presentation, interview 3 managers,& write a 10 page paper.If u study his slides (3-4 hrs) & attend the review, u'll get at least an 80 on d tests.I'm not a fan of some of his speeches, but overall hes a decent guy.Id say the drive to cocoa was worth it

He was the best teacher I have had at UCF. I took him for Cornerstone and Management if available I will take him for Capstone also!

this is the best professor at ucf. take him whenever you can.

He tells a lot of stories(which he tests u on to make sure you come to class). He does not do the teaching, he has a different group of students teach each chapter from the book and he will add at the end. I thought that was pretty good idea. The presentation of the chapter is apart of your grade. He is very laid back, nice guy!

Really really really COOL guy. To the point. No joke will not trick you. Great professor.

Great guy. He tells you like it is. Take him!

Great class. Definitely recommend.

Great Professor. I loved his class. Fair grader and interesting stories.

Took him for Cornerstone. Best professor at UCF.

what can I say!!! you wanna get perfect take this professor, he is awesome! no stress and he tells you exactly what he wants you dont even feel the class!!! Dr. Ford is the bad part of this his tests damn hard no sense. WANT PERFECT ON THE PROJECT TAKE HIM!!!

Viggiano is a cool guy that relates to students well since he is one himself. He's notoriously the best Cstone prof. so make sure to get in his class. Easy as long as you do the assignments which are all group oriented and mostly busy work. Will need to do a little public speaking, and unfortunately you still have to deal with Ford's lectures.

He makes Capstone fun! Applies the material from the book with great examples and keeps you interested during class. He also leads good debates in class. He should definitely be the overall instructor for the class. You have to try to fail this class-if you wanna graduate, take him!

After the first few weeks feeling out Charlie and understanding that the itinerary isn't set in stone, I was much for comfortable in the lab. I do not like the choice of projects. As everyone has mentioned though, he is a good instructor and you will do well in the lab if you show up and turn in your assignments.

Viggiano is THE best lab instructor for Cornerstone, and an all around nice guy. Sometimes he's not as clear as he could be about what's expected of you, but sometimes it's because of things over his head. After the first few weeks you'll understand what you need to do. He won't waste your time. Take him!

Good professor. My main complaints are: the book listed on the UCF bookstore website for this exact class was 4th edition and the class required the 5th edition. This should always be updated so students will not waste their money on a book they do not need. Sometimes a little slow in responding to questions. good professor other than that.

This was a required class for my degree but Viggiano was super easy to please and very helpful when it came to helping boost grades. He would look for where he could give extra points and you didnt even have to ask for them. Great professor, great class (easy).

Charlie is a great guy. His class is not difficult at all. If you do some reading,study the powerpoints, and go to class, an A is very attainable. The biggest difference between an A and a B is whether or not you attend class.

Awesome, nice guy. I'm shocked how many people are complaining. What, do you want it to be really hard and unpleasant in class?! Do the work, pay attention, come to class; it is fulfilling and you learn. Made my last class of my degree much less stressful. He even helped me out when I needed it, overly fair and really cares about his students.

He is a nice guy, and willing to help unfortunately class time is composed of learning about his personal experiences and some class debates which unfortunately are irrelevant to the test. Yes I got an A and went 4 times to class, you teach yourself and you'll be ok.

Awesome Professor! He has to be one of the most straight forward professors at UCF. He does not try to trick you on Exams and fair on grading papers. Exams are a 50/50 mix of essay and multiple choice. If you do not attend every class you will probably have difficulty answering some of the essay questions.

charlie is the man! if i need to take i class, he is my first choice

Charlie is the man! great teacher, great attitude, always willing to help. A teacher that understand the college student struggle. If charlie is an option for a class i make sure to sign up for his class asap

As always pick a good group. This is all about volunteering with a local charity. 2 Papers, 2 short oral progress reports about 2 min long and one final group oral presentation. Do the work and you will pass. He is easy going and very helpful. Great class overall. I am taking his class next semester.

He is a little bland in his personality but he is a very understanding professor. He knows that all the students are working hard. His grading is a bit tough, you have to produce good content in order to get a high grade.

Charlie is such a GREAT professor! He is caring and respectful to his students. He was helpful and accommodating. Attendance is mandatory but he makes the class fun and interesting. Would take again!

He cares about his students and their academics. He wants them to succeed. There is participation every week in class so make sure you pick a good group. If you put in the effort, you will pass his course.

Seriously a great professor. Cares a lot about students and goes out of his way to help them succeed.

Take him! So far Professor Charles is one of the best professors that I've ever had. For the people who are struggling with public speaking no worries about it, he will encourage you to keep improving by giving you great feedback. You will learn a lot from him and the class is so fun. Pick a great team and you will rock it. He's a leader.

Love this guy, he's a great teacher and you can tell he's a kind man. He wants everyone to pass but more importantly, he wants everyone to learn and gain value from the topics studied in class. If you have the chance to take him for Integrated Business Technologies, take him!

This Professor makes this class really clear and easy to follow. Presentation and short quiz every week. For presentations, with a length of 5 mins top, he will offer a variety of topics to choose from. One Individual final presentation. Prof is responsive to emails and concerns. I will def take him again.
