Mr. Hall was a very good teacher. I learned in his class and got a very good grade. You have one group project that was very easy. The test are easy if you study and the extra credit questions are just common sense.

Mr. Hall is very funny. A lot like previous high school teachers that you just can't help but laugh at their quirks and the weird things they do. So he is entertaining. He truly cares about the students and isn't hard at all. Just do the study guide the night before the test. Always giving extra credit too. I am definitely going to take Marketing classes with Mr. Hall.

GREAT GUY. Funny, crazy, fun teacher. Attendance is mandatory but if you never miss a day you get 25 extra credit points at the end of the semester. Tests aren't bad, but final is cumulative. Loved him!

Mr. Hall is an average teacher, it seems that he rambles a lot, but those rambling always effectively pertain to class topics. He has a lot of guest speakers which are really cool because they provide a real-life application to what he teaches. ALWAYS come to class, it makes the tests really easy if you pay attention. You barely have to study and you can get an A.

Mr. Hall works to make the material interesting with real-world examples and humorous comments. I'm not a marketing major so I wasn't too interested in the class. He shows enthusiasm and keeps the subject from being boring (most of the time).

If you go to class and take good notes you could get by without the book. I did read some of the chapters and used the book to fill in my notes when I missed something.

There are plenty of opportunities for extra credit and there's no reason not to take advantage. Some complain about losing points for missing class. I see it as getting points for attending. If you go to all the classes you get extra points. There are always a few extra points on the tests. There is also the 7:00 a.m. meeting at Kroger to listen to the Frito-Lay guy talk about marketing for about 15 minutes which is worth 15 points.

There are four tests with the final covering new material and some of the old material. Mr. Hall provides a review sheet a few days before each test. Study that material and you will do well.

He does like the atheletes and Greeks. He often uses them for examples or asks them questions. If it were me, I would rather be left alone. I never saw that he showed them favoritism, but I guess it could have happened. It didn't matter to me. I was just there to do my own thing.

Overall it was a good class and I would recommend Mr. Hall. If you go to class and study for a few hours for each test you can get an A.

Dr. Hall is great, his humor kept the class going. He was good for giving extra credit, and his tests were not hard. Go to class, a little bit of study time for tests, and you'll get an A.

Mr. Hall is a nice guy. He has alot of real world experience and good knowledge of the business world. His tests are a little tricky but offers a TON of extra credit. Come to class and try and he will respect you. I got an A on all of my tests, he will give a review every time. He also has a good sense of humor. Other prof. will put you to sleep because of their lack of personality, but he makes it interesting. Also don't get mad if he makes a joke towards you, he does it with everyone. He makes fun of himself alot too, its always a good time. He does take grades on attendence so just come to class and it will help your grade. Take him if you can.

He is awesome. You have 3 tests and a final. Attendance is mandatory and if you never miss any class (unless its excused) you get 25 extra credit points at the end. He gives so much extra credit that it's so easy to get an A. He also gives you a review before the test and that's all I studied before each exam and I made an A on every test. I love, love, love him. He is extremly funny too!!!

Mr. Hall is totally amazing and just plain cool! He is one of those guys that makes you want to come to class, just to see what wacky thing he will say or do next. He makes class WAY fun, he is very interactive with the class and he makes sure he knows ALL of his students by first name. Mr. Hall is all in all a big kid who likes to joke around and talk about sports, but he also knows his stuff. I HIGHLY recommend his class and Mr. Hall as a teacher. If you decide not to take his class, you are missing out on a wonderful experience. ---side note, the text book is not mandatory but it is beneficial to read.

I took him for BA 175 and loved it. Marketing, however, wasn't as much fun. I think it was more the material than anything else.

The one bad thing about him is that he HEAVILY favors Greek kids and athletes. Before every test both the athletes and Greek kids had a copy of last year's test to study from. Some even said he gave the old test to them. This was a huge advantage for them because the test were almost the same.

Mr. Hall is a GREAT teacher! He makes learning so fun and actually connects with his students. I actually look forward to going to his class because he always has a new story for us. Unlike most professors, he sends us a study guide at least a week before the exam so that we are well prepared! I definitley recommend him!

He is so cool!! As long as you do the review sheet and know it you will do great on the tests. There are some projects but they are easy so don't worry. Attendance is a grade so come every day, and he gives extra credit attendence sometimes, so always be there. He gives lots of extra credit.

I had Mr. Hall as a professor 2 years ago and he stands out as the most unprofessional, horrific professor I had while in college. His job makes him feel "powerful" when he is really a joke! Take my advice... don't ask questions about your grade. He will say you are "questioning his authority" and fail you on your final! He needs to get a life!

If you like a talker that goes off of the subject easily and tells you a funny story, then Dr. Hall is the one. I took his 3 wk. winter term and enjoyed it a lot.

The main thing done in the class was a group project that's due a couple of days before the final. It consisted of thinking up a product and having on paper from start to finish about the product and everything about it. It was a little tedious, but as long as you look at the example projects he has layed out from the semesters before and follow them, you should get a good grade in the class. Also, his wife judges for the best logo and best company name, and the winners get an extra 5 pts. on their projects. He will also give you extra points if you turn in the group project early. All in all if you like a light hearted class atmosphere and are interested or required to take Entrepreneurial Marketing I would take Dr. Hall.

Gives you the chance to look at old tests if you take the time to go to the library. Extremely clear, funny, and talented at teaching. If you arent paying attention in his class just answer "Wal-Mart," it works everytime. Attendance and subscrice to magazine required. But dont subscribe, common sense on the test u will make an A if u show up.

Mr. Hall was really easygoing in class and always willing to help you. He offered extra credit every time you turned around. Any little thing got extra points. There are a few tests and an individual project, which was easy but a little time consuming. I would definitely take him again!

Super fun, super easy class. Hall is real funny and keeps your attention through the whole class. The test aren't that difficult. He gives a study guide before. Couple of extra credit opportunities. One was watching the chip guy at kroger stock chips for 15 min. Attendence is part of your grade. No biggie though. TAKE HIM for sure! No joke!

Dr. Hall makes this class very interesting. He teaches straight from the book but adds his own examples so you can just write the few notes you take in your book. The book is a must though! If you can find someone who has taken him before, his test rarely vary from year to year, so I would suggest finding one. Also, you can go to a 15 minute presentation to get 15 extra credit points.

You can scate through the class without writing a single word of notes. All of the material he covers comes directly from the book, however the tests are mostly applying the concepts to examples instead of simply memorizing definitions. He gives several chances for extra credit, which will offset the points he takes off for missing class and cellphones ringing. His sesne of humor is funny at first but quickly gets old and he deffinately gives preference to females and athletes. No respect for those of us who have to work for a living. Ultimately I would recommend taking someone else.

Mr. Hall really likes marketing and makes it interesting in his class. Most of his notes come directly from the textbook, but he is also big on examples.

He gives lots of chances for extra credit so take advantage of it because it can make a difference in your grade.

A group project is assigned for the end of the semester and he picks the classmates you work with according to last names.

He learns everyone's name, unlike some professors who don't care who you are. I'd say Mr. Hall is a good pick.

Mr. Hall is my favorite professor on campus. I have had him twice and loved both of his classes. He cares about his students and is very down to earth. His test can be tricky if you don't study for them. He gives you a review sheet for every test listing the areas he is going to cover. If you know whats on the review sheet, you'll do fine in his class. He gives you several chances to get extra credit which can really help your grade. Don't take anyone else other than Mr. Hall!

Mr. Hall was a great teacher. He has wonderful people skills and likes to get to know everyone in the class. You have to show up to class, but that has its rewards. You have 2 big assignmets, but they aren't too bad. They take a little time, but it is mostly compiling information, not really anything hard. A highlighter and book is a MUST! His tests are not very hard, and I found a lot of the things we talked about to be interesting. I enjoyed his class a lot. I would definitely take his class again and reccommend his class to anyone. He's always there to talk to, and is helpful through e-mal as well. He's a good teacher!

Mr Hall is a great teacher who really cares about his students! If you need any help through the semester all you have to do is ask, he brought the real world into the classroom which is hard to do for many teachers (but not for him) not only will you learn the material for this class but a few life lessons also. Take Mr. Hall, you'll love him.

I took Mr. Hall his first semester of teaching. Sometimes he was very hard, and others times was very easy. The class is overall boring but you have to go or you don't get your attendance points. Our first test was very hard and everyone bombed. Our next few tests he helped us out by telling us what to study. He even made us take a test on 9/11!!! Like anyone was thinking about a test that day!! Then our final there was way too much information. I think it had something like 150 questions covering about 15 chapters. It was ridiculous. I would definitely not recommend taking him until he has had a few years of experience.

I LOVED this class! Mr. Hall is an awesome teacher. You have to do a group project (which is teach a chapter) and those got kinda boring, but he likes creativeness when it comes to your project. He usually tells you what will be on the test the class before. You will have quizzes over the chapters, but they aren't too bad. 56 of your points comes from attendence. If you want to have fun, take Mr. Hall for this class.
