Professor Rutledge is awesome and really cares about his students, even in a 200p lecture. The class was boring but that was expected for an econ requirement and I learned everything I needed to know for my next classes. He clearly tried to make it as interesting as he could and tests were fair.

Best econ professor I have had so far at BC! Not an easy course but he really cares about every single student and wants everyone to do well, cannot recommend enough!
