He's an okay teacher, You can take the class one of two ways, show up and take good notes (and not bother reading) or read the book and don't bother with the class. Doing both is a waste of time, other than the random quizes. But the test was pretty strange, it's graded on a curve though, so no big. Take another prof if you can, but he's okay.

Dunie is great at giving the students plenty of examples and study questions so that they can be prepared. He does challenge you, but it is never going to be out of a person's capability to do well if they actually do the the assignments and study questions. Most teachers don't give people reviews and Dunie does. If you do them, you'll do well

I found the class interesting and he was a generally a funny interesting lecturer. Sometimes topics got boring, but overall he was fun to listen to, and I enjoy 90% of his lectures. Just make sure you take good notes because they will really help you for the exam. Also read the required readings, the class will make more sense.

Richard Dunie was my favorite professor of the semester! He made me want to come to class because his lectures were always very interesting. Take good notes and you will be fine. His tests and quizzes are hard but he drops the lowest quiz score and curves the exams. You don't really have to do all the reading, you discuss everything in class anyway

There are a couple of readings due each class period. Some of them are really long, but if you go to class and pay attention he will tell you the parts that you need to know. I rarely did the readings, but I took good notes in class. He gives 7 pop quizzes (so you go to class), 2 papers, 1 midterm and 1 final.

Professor Dunie was one of the worst professors I have ever encountered. Every time I reached out to him for some help he gave me responses that made me feel as though I was annoying. I did not enjoy this class simply because of him. The material is tough as it is, so to add a rude professor on top of that is a mixture for failure.

Dunie is a smart person but a bad teacher. You don't learn anything that really applies to modern day business. He has a Bachelors degree in English Literature and he teachers business as if its a english class. No real business applications taught here.

Professor Dunie gives great lectures. Most people don't understand that the sole purpose of this class is to teach you critical thinking skills which are absolutely essential in business. Come to class with an open mind. My issue was with Dunie personally. He can be very arrogant and reneged on an agreement he made with me on the final.

This class could've been really interesting with a different professor. Whenever I would email Professor Dunie for help, he would act as if I was annoying. I never felt like he prepared us for exams and I constantly left class more confused than I was when I arrived. I am considering retaking this course with a different professor.

Took this class Fall 2014 semester, I'm graduating this semester and I can tell you, without a doubt, that this is hardest exam I have taken. This class is absolutely trash, foundations of business? HA!! More like philosophy of business. Didn't like this professor, didn't prepare you for exams at all, so good luck.

This professor spews inaccurate facts, even though he bashes the "fake news." He needs to understand that we all have Google and can Google facts, if I had to do it over again, I would raise my hand and correct him. Didn't understand his grading curve, never knew my grade until the end of course. Would Never take from this professor again.

Possibly my favorite lecturer I've ever had. Had no desire to take this class and it was one of my favorite classes I've ever had. Loved showing up to class. Had to study for my grade, but enjoyed studying the material.

Dunie makes his lectures correlate with the text well, and helps you understand what you should be looking out for in the text for his tests. If you skip class, it makes it ten times harder to do well on the midterm and finals (both multiple choice and essay). If you show up to class and listen for key points, it will help you a lot.
