Prof. Econ

In an effort to make this blog somewhat relevant to the MBA program, I'll try to profile each professor before the start of next semester and go from there.

Econ professors are a funny bunch. Most are too conscious of opportunity costs to splurge on mere wants and their preoccupation with math keeps them from appreciating the existence of irrationality. Prof. Econ is no different.

Lovingly referred to by the students as "T.K.," he teaches from his ergonomic stool at the front of the class using mostly graphs and anecdotes. If you like set syllabi and lesson plans, you won't value his family stories about custom made organs and if you like learning only what's on the exam, you won't welcome his sometimes seemingly nonsensical sojourns into the depths of calculus. If you get beyond that for long enough to pay attention and do the assigned work, you'll leave the class with an understanding of intermediate economics and ability to explain everything.

You accidentally shot a call girl while cleaning your gun? There are graphs to help make sense of it. Kind of.
