Ed's a great guy. The class is easy and he'll make you laugh the whole way through.

Ed is a very nice man. He jokes around alot but, will teach you alot

great guy. really funny but you have to go to class. all the tests come from the notes he gives. i go every class and i have a really high A. projects are a lot of fun. great teacher

He is a really great teacher. He is very funny and entertaining. He makes the class fun. You will want to come to class. You will also learn a lot.

Ed doesn't take attendance but you must go because tests are based on his lectures and he gives pop quizzes that WILL hurt your grade if you miss! Mostly an easy and fun class, sometimes a little unclear and redundant!

I definitley recommend his class

Folks, you have to be a complete fool tom fail this class! It's mostly common sense and very easy to memorize. Warning: He loves to give pop quizzes so this isn't a class you can skip a lot because those quickly add up at 10pts each.

hes so cool you need to meet him

what an awesome teacher- hint- go to class and you will get an A- if you dont your an idiot

Very Easy A. Ed is very nice and funny. Class is fun and actually interesting. Shares lots of neat stories. Gives pop quizzes, so go to class.

Great guy, real funny. Makes class fun and easy. Be sure to go to class though, he does like quizzes. I would recommend taking him if at all possible.

VERY AWESOME PROFESSOR. LOVES TO TELL JOKES AND CUT UP SO YOU DON'T GET BORED. ENJOYS THE POP QUIZES SO TRY TO GO TO CLASS. TESTS ARE STRAIGHT FROM HIS LECTURES..... ALSO, LOVES TO GIVE RANDOM EXTRA CREDIT DURING CLASS.

this guy is freaking awesome his is the best teacher ever and if you fail his class you are and idiot moreover i would take the same class twice just beacuse he is such a good teacher

Good professor,funny & has good info on DUI's and other legal stuff b/c he is a retired cop. Recommend taking him on all of his offered courses.

Ed is a great teacher and definitely one of those that you can learn a thing or two about life from. I think everyone else said attend the class, and I agree. Good stuff.

Tests are mostly T/F, he offers alot of extra credit. Funny and makes class interesting.

Great teacher I would recomend everyone to take him. He is fun and outgoing and does not mind making a fool out of himself. Class is easy as long as you show up and take notes. Tests are t/f

Easy A/B, you know it's easy when the football players take it

He appears to be very funny and nice guy in the class. Don't let that fool you. He has two sides of personalities. He has very bad temper when he not lecture in the class. If you need to talk to him about the missing work, don't go to his office, it will get ugly.

Coon is a very nice outgoing professor but can be an **** outside of class. He gets upset when you go to him and ask him what you missed in class. If you take all the quizes, wing all the tests(very easy tests) you will make an A. At the end, the quiz grades decide whether you make B or an A.

He is funny and laid back and was very helpful to me outside of class. All of his tests are T/F and he offers alot of extra credit to help bring up your grade. You will get an A as long as you go to class.

Coon is great! I'm taking 557 now. If you do your work, you will get an A.

after taking three classes with him you will find him extremely annoyiing at times, but overall his classes are easy if you just go to them

he's great, just do as you are instructed, and you will be fine. for all those people who said he is two faced, they prob should have attended class. that is why it is scheduled.

Great teacher, willing to help with anything and nice to boot. just listen and do what you're told and will be fine.

Where do i start, first of all there is no sense in you wondering his rating because hrtm majors and minors have to take him. Easy class yes, but since he knows it is easy he finds pointless and unprofessional ways to make it hard, such as hiding quizes on cd and trys to trick you on the test. just be prepared for alot of Bullsh*t!!!

everything everyone else has said about him before is true. He makes an extremely simple class annoying by throwing in random homeworks on the CD, tests, etc. This class is still really easy, but you have to go and you have to do your work. Just be prepared for lots of bull*hit

very easy A. extremely boring because he makes stupid jokes and goes of on tangents. a lot of busy work. his class reminds me of middle school. need to buy the cd. he becomes very annoying as the semester goes on.

I really liked this professor, he kept my attention in class. The only thing I didn't like about him was his test, I thought they were very confussing.

I love Ed Coon! He's been a great professor and if you do the work, it's an easy A. Be aware that there are hidden assignments in the CD so read it before you come to class. He's very funny and the class will keep you entertained.

You just have a CD no book. The CD does have hidden assignments but you are supposed to read before class. No attendance is taken but there are random quizzes. Class is really easy if you go. He will also work with you if you miss class. Go to his office hours if you want to increase your grade.

This class is very easy as long as you read the cd and turn in all your work. There is no reason not to make an A in this class.

Ed Coon. What a crazy guy. He's funny and class is super easy. Just look at your CD (no book) in advance and find all of the hidden assignments and extra credits. This class and all of his classes are simple if you actually go to class. Exam is optional. If a weird guy talks to you on the first day, be nice b/c it's him. If you are nice you get EC.

he is the coolest professor ever! he really cares about you as a person, but truly expects you to do the work! so as long as you keep up with the disk and go to class and keep up with the extra credit which he gives out in class then you'll do great!

Coon is a good professor, but you have to go to class. Plenty of extra credit to help one's grade. Do the work, stay on top of assignments on the CD, and you will be fine. No tricky assignments or anything. A great class to take.

He is very easy. You will learn absolutly nothing. But, you have to take the class and be there...so enjoy a nap or read a magazine. The textbook is a POS CD-Rom..MAC users good luck getting it to work. Most of the info. he has "made-up" and is not industry standard. Also remind his of things...hes forgetful.

I had****for all three of his classes. Find friends in the class, and go in on a cd, and just copy it. He is pretty unorganized and wont remember if you were supposed to turn things in or not. Basically, you can make things up and he will beleive it. He has alot of stupid stories, but he has some good information. Projects are a pain!

I personally enjoyed the class. It was the only time during the day that I got to take a good nap. I did learn a lot of things and I really enjoyed some of he assignments. It is almost impossible to fail this class. He gives loads of extra credit but you have to do the assignment on time and don't just do the bare minimum.

Probably one of the coolest professors on campus! He will talk to you about anything, but don't think you can get over on him. Do the work and come to class. Read the CD cause he writes ALL the questions that will be on the test in the TEST QUESTIONS section on the CD. He is really nice and extremely fair. Class is fun!

I had him in Summer II for Hotel Law and he was one of the best professors I ever had. The class is easy if you show up and do what is asked. Great guy!

This class was more than I expected it to be. Not a breeze through. There is an extra credit sheet at the end of the year. Multiple choice exams but they are harder than they should be. Two projects and an optional final exam which i will be taking advandtage of. Textbook is a CD you have to buy for $35. He likes to hide info on the cd.

Coon is a crazy guy! Keeps class interesting and makes you laugh here and there. I recommend this class. He does try to trick you and the CD (no textbook) is hard to understand at times. He nails you with a couple of random pop quizes to see if you go to class. Easy A if you but forth some sort of effort.

Most fun prof. i've had at USC. Easy easy class but you have to go in order to do well. No book, just a $35 CD. 2 tests, a handful of quizzes, 2 papers that a 7th grader could get a 100 on, and a 25 questions project due at end of year. Gives tons of extra credit. It's real easy to get an A

I loved this professor. I really enjoyed going to his class. Well I had to.lol. Gave out random quizzes. I got A's in both of his classes but i had to do the work. His tests are tricky. Don't waste alot of time studying for them. But overall it was easy. Just very very very time consuming.

Good professor.... grades kinda weird... but gives you plenty of extra credit opportunities... you should attend class since he does give you open note quizzes! overall a very funny cool professor!

People listen up,if u went through all that stuff he went through, you would understand his insanity and coolness.he will make class juicy but don't get confused by that. He is not a bad teacher nor person - Dom Lendjel

This is an easy but VERY tedious class. Nothing about the course is difficult by any means, but it does require you go everyday and keep up with the 2nd grade level assignments. If you keep up with it you can't get less than an A, if you don't its even easier to get an F.

if you dont make an A in this class you must be dumb! i made a 102 and put almost no effort at all. there are 2 huge projects but as long as you write a bunch of BS and have alot of pages you will automatically get an A on the project. his lectures are boring but helps with test materials. gives TONS of extra credit. really wants you to get an A.

A lot of people don't like him but i thought he was really funny. Extremely easy class, and a lot of tedious work. Grades on quantity not quality. Tests are directly form test questions on cd. Definitely an easy a and he has some gross, but sometimes amusing stories. Go to class for surprise assignments.

He is one of the best teachers ever. You do need to attend class because he is always giving out extra credit. Just go to class and follow the instructions, every thing will come easy to you.

HE IS AWESOME!! Make sure you go to class though because he gives a LOT of extra credit opportunities.

This class gets old after a while. He's a nice man but his jokes get really old. I would suggest going to class every time because you usually have to turn stuff in.

Great Teacher gives good lectures and is even comical. I learned allot and had fun. Sometimes his hummer can be a bit dry but overall it was a great experience. I would definitely recommend him to everyone even if you?re not hospitality major and I will look for him in future classes

Great Professor! Attendence is mandatory only because he gives the assignments in class and says things in class that you need to know in order to do well, but the class is enjoyable. Uses a CD, no book. He is funny and cares about his students! He wants everyone to do well. You have to be a slacker to not do well. TAKE HIM! Tons of Extra Credit!!!

GREAT teacher!! attendance is a must,but all work is easy and not much effort is required. go to class he will randomly assign small hw assignments, but all are extreamly easy!

Coon is a pretty decent teacher, given this class is seriously a joke. It's a survey course about the hospitality industry in general. Literally the easiest A (102) I've ever got. Gives busy work and random quizzes, 3 projects (which are really just long papers that aren't difficult), so just do the work and you'll EASILY ace the class.

Professor Coon is AWESOME! He give so much extra credit in his CD & in class. Just go to the class sit in the front section.Listen to what he says and if you need to talk to him go to his office he is a really nice man and cares for the students who go the extra mile. Work hard on the 2 projects for extra credit. Really great and easy.

OMG. I LOVED HIM SO MUCH...DR. COON IS SO HELPFUL. HIS TIME IS YOUR TIME. IF YOU NEED HELP GO SEE HIM IF NOT HE CAN NOT HELP YOU. THERE IS SO MUCH EXTRA CREDIT AND YES THERE ARE A FEW POP QUIZZES BUT THE CLASS IS FUN. THE WORK IS NOT HARD EITHER. AND THERE IS NO TEXTBOOK JUST A CD WHICH IS BETTER.

Mr. Coon is awesome. Go to class unless you want your name read out loud in front of everyone. He is really helpful and his test structure is unique, but definitely helped me learn everything I needed to know!

Great teacher if you go to class. One of the few professors who actually was successful in his field of study.

Coon is amazing. He's really funny and his assignments are easy. But you have to have a passion for the HRTM program and actually be interested in his class to be able to do well. He gives a lot of extra credit and loves what he does. Definitely my favorite class this semester.

Overall a great professor, works of a cd based book he designed. It is very important that you purchase and read carefully, it's not hard but there is lots of hidden extra credit through out the reading, Ed makes class a great experience

Awesome Professor...offers ALOT of extra credit. Coon is a great professor and very helpful. Uses a cd instead of textbook, optional final

Extremely easy class. Offers lots of extra credit. Jokes a lot and goes off topic. Attedance isn't manadtory, but there are a few pop quizzes

EASY. EASY. EASY. Do the projects, and use detail. I have over a 100% in the class, because he offers so much extra credit. Because I have an A, I do not have to take the final. Easy A class.

Recommend taking Ed Coon! Really great professor. Gives lots of extra credit. Must purchase his cd. Keep your grade up and you can opt the final. He's hilarious too, learned a lot from him.

Prof. Coone is fantastic. He makes the class really entertaining, always looked forward to going. Tests and projects aren't hard at all.

Hilarious and entertaining

this class is super easy and interesting. will help with life no matter what major is. over 30 extra credit points throughout semester. tells you exactly what he wants and if you listen you WILL get over100 average. funny and entertaining. really gets you to learn information in class so little need to study for tests you have. projects lots of pts

His class was enjoyable. He was funny and enjoyed telling stories. It was easy to know what your assignments were because he repeats them a lot, all you have to do is come to class to understand them. I enjoyed doing his projects too!

Coon was an awesome professor! he always made class so much fun and interesting. his tests are kinda hard but he offers a lot of simple easy extra credit.

One of my favorite professors at USC. A hilarious man with a passion for what he does. The class was relatively easy; he didn't take attendance but sometimes gave pop quizzes and info about when assignments were due, etc., so definitely go to class. Very particular about how he wants the assignments done, so be careful. Overall, great professor!

Coon was an entertaining teacher for sure. Attendance isn't mandatory but if you go regularly you'll find he practically hands out 100 quiz grades for those who show up. Test questions were similar to those of years past. Overall a fun class

Take Ed Coon!! His humor is a little out there sometimes but he is a really nice guy and this class is a very easy A. Just show up to class, do what he says on projects, and do the extra credit and it is so easy to get an A. I ended up with well over 100 for my final grade

Nice guy. Very crazy, but funny sense of humor. If you go to class and turn in all of your projects on time, you will get an A. Doesn't take attendance, but you have to attend. Definitely not a boring class.
