Student Comments for EC 422
Fall 2014 EC 422
Dr. Hoover made the class very enjoyable. He was a little harsh and strict in the beginning, but I realized his personality is nothing that I haven't endured with my own dad. I guess the harshness was to weed out the bad students and to let everyone know he doesn't take any mess. I liked the subject and I liked him teaching it. He really took the time to make sure we understood the material and at a level everyone could comprehend. He was very enthusiastic for teaching a class so late in the day when the class would just be out of it. If I could have taken another class in the spring with him, I would have.
One of the best professors I have had at UA
Dr. Hoover is hands down the best teacher I've ever had the pleasure of learning from here at the Capstone. His class is rigorous and his no nonsense style of teaching make him intimidating, but students learn that this simply due to his passion for us to truly apply ourselves in order to be successful. Dr. Hoover is also an exemplary communicator and motivator. He works extremely hard to ensure that everyone in the class is grasping the material by always finding ways to make difficult concepts easy to understand and by thoroughly answering any and all questions we pose to him. I wish I wasn't a senior just so I could continue to take classes with Dr. Hoover
Really interesting from learning the details and seeing the effect they have of urban economics
I'm glad I got to take this course. I find it had very relevant information for someone wanting to go into public service and government.
