Gregory Marr BMGT360 Expecting an A- Devjon12 01/07/2024	Pros: Very funny and witty. Knows how to keep a class engaged. Cons: Inability to update grades throughout the semester, when asked for help his go to repsonse is something along the lines of "look at the syllabus" or "its probably somewhere on the rubric" i.e he is not very helpful is grasping abetter understanding of the assignments. To me, it seemed like Smith School needed someone to teach this class, so they told him to. He loves to discuss his 120K annual salary.
Vineet Gambhir BMGT360 Expecting an A Anonymous 05/19/2023	He is a very chill professor. I was late for my finals and he gave me extra time to finish it. The slides are condensed and the exams are based on those slides.
Vineet Gambhir BMGT360 Expecting an A- Anonymous 05/16/2023	He's a very chill guy. The course is very easy with not a lot of homework. However, I felt like his teaching style could have been improved, rather than just reading off the slides on Zoom. Other than that, he's a good professor. TA's are very responsive.
Vineet Gambhir BMGT360 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 04/13/2023	An incredibly easy class that only occurs in around 10 zoom calls for the entire semester. All work was graded as group work or individually and was basically all graded off completion as long as most of it made sense. The midterm and final are open-note copies and pastes of his PowerPoint. There is a group project/presentation throughout the semester.
Gregory Marr BMGT360 Expecting a B Anonymous 12/17/2022	This class took up the majority of my time during the week. He has you do unnecessary busy work assignments that are boring and no one cares about. Will take attendance, exams are not open note/are not easy, class is mandatory and participation is weighted heavily, and will give you a ton of assignments/projects. We had to write papers, large group projects, exams, and hours worth of assignments every day (including thanksgiving). Wouldnt recommend to anyone looking for an easy A. Dont listen to any review above a 2 star because its not accurate. Sure hes a nice guy and outgoing, but the class just sucks.
Vineet Gambhir BMGT360 Expecting an A Anonymous 05/20/2022	He is an amazing and chill professor. The class is very manageable with a few assignments, a group project, a midterm, and a final. He and the TA’s were informative, supportive, and gave great feedback and advice throughout the course. I learned so much about HR!

Vineet Gambhir BMGT360 Expecting an A Anonymous 11/11/2020	Amazing professor, truly cares about his students. Tests are super easy and he says "it will be very difficult not to get an A in my class". Pick this guy
Jeffrey Kudisch BMGT360 Expecting an A- Anonymous 10/24/2019	One of my favorite professors at UMD. He's very engaged and takes his job very seriously. I'd love to take another class with him!
Jeffrey Kudisch BMGT360 Expecting an A- Anonymous 02/28/2018	I can not recommend DR. K enough. He makes you work for your grade, but if you put in the effort and come to class you'll get a good grade. Grades aside, in this class you'l actually learn something. He is a very experienced professor who knows what he's talking about. And generally just a very cool dude. Take Dr. K!
James Spina BMGT360 Expecting a B Anonymous 12/18/2012	HORRIBLE CLASS.I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY HIS RATINGS ARE SO HIGH. I can truly say that I did not learn a single thing from his lectures throughout the entire semester. We learned how to fold napkins and play with straws more than learning anything educational. He was extremely unorganized and ADD in class and honestly it was really weird. I'm not going to lie this was honestly one of the worst classes I have taken here at UMD, I would definitely say avoid at all costs.
James Spina BMGT360 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/22/2011	This is a pretty interesting class, and if you do your work is a pretty easy A. I learned a lot about the world of Human Resource Management and got some insight on how the job search process looks from the side of those recruiting. While Spina makes the class interesting with activities and videos, the 3 exams that are worth 60% of your grade are all based on the text. The other 40% of your grade is attendance in lecture in lecture and discussion and some group homework in discussion, so don't skip class like a jokester.
James Spina BMGT360 Expecting a B Anonymous 12/13/2011	I love Spina. From his little old man wardrobe to his mildly funny jokes. He's such a great professor. He brings up volunteers from the class and has them do different activities in order to show content we just discussed. He also uses youtube to do the same thing. Granted his multiple choice exams are stupid and have two really good choices (choose the one that's the BEST one, they say -_-), this class was great! His wife is also a good T.A.! They both use stories from their lives to help explain a topic.
James Spina BMGT360 Expecting a B Anonymous 07/07/2011	Attendance counts for 40% of your grade. Do NOT skip class like a jokester or you will seriously fail because there is no curve. Material is hilariously easy and participation is very entertaining in class. Do not try to cheat attendance with clickers. The TA douchebag takes attendance manually in his diary sketchpad. Easy A or B if you attend class.
James Spina BMGT360 Expecting a B Epa Epas 05/20/2011	His class is not demanding at all. Just 3 tests 20% each, attendance is about 17%, and FBO 20%. Just make sure you don't have his wife for the FBO. She is a harsh grader, and kind of rude. Her grade can easily lower your final grade.
James Spina BMGT360 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/16/2009	Good class, and Spina makes the material interesting. Just make sure to go to class and do the homeworks for discussion for easy points.
James Spina BMGT360 Expecting an A Ruthie 11/09/2009	I would recommend Spina's class to those who are trying to make a choice btw 360 and 364. He's a really good teacher - always has some funny comments and ideas up his sleeves :, but always manages to relate what he's saying to the HR management! He knows just how to make lectures 'not boring' and at the same time informative. I had first thought that the 75 mins of lecture was too long, but Spina knows just how to keep his students engaged and interested in class. I would take his class again any time! As per grading, just try to attend classes and the FBOs, the exams are prety straight forward too (make sure u have the text book!) Overall, Spina is a great professor!
James Spina BMGT360 Expecting a B Scotter 02/26/2009	I loved this professor. He made class so interesting. He does fun stuff with people in the class and there is really never a dull moment in class. He uses clickers. His tests are really easy, you don't even need to read the book. He tells you exactly what you need to know in review sessions before the tests. You do get a decent amount of HW in the class, but it is all really interesting hw. Great class and BY FAR my favorite professor at umd.
James Spina BMGT360 Anonymous 05/20/2008	I really enjoyed this class. Spina is adorable and really funny. He makes lectures bearable with all this groups activities (he will randomly picks you out in lecture to participate in his activities), it will feel like you're in grade school again. Attendance by clickers (25%). His wife was my discussion leader and she is awesome too! Exams were not bad, he gives you exact pages to study from. I am borderline A/B, dont know what I'll get, it all depends on the final exam (missed 1 lecture, attend all discs, did all hw assignments (there are quite a few), and B's on 2 exams. I definitely recommnend this professor, one of Smith's best!
James Spina BMGT360 Expecting a B pluralfacade 05/17/2008	Would definitely recommend him. He's pretty interesting and does demonstrations every lecture to keep the class engaged. He also gives you the exact pages out of the book to study for the tests. If that isn't motivation enough to come to class, however, he also takes attendance. He gives about two assignments per week but they're nothing intense.
