Comment:

I never had a prof that talked about his personal life so much. Ken Bowbly comes off as arrogant, rude and very very petty. I had no behavioural issues with him but he talks a lot of random things, like china and his time in the MBA program at Ivy. If you can avoid him, do so.

Comment:

Originally, Ken comes off as a miserable professor until you realize that if you show up for class on-time, demonstrate respect to those speaking, participate in discussion (even when you don't want to), read the chapters he turns into a really great prof who cares about his students. Turns out all you have to do is give a little to get a little.

Comment:

This course provided little relevant information for students and would be extremely disappointing for anyone thinking of pursuing a marketing career. Exams consist of textbook memorization and several random question you are forced to guess at. Lectures have no relation to textbook material.

Most useless class I have ever taken. Does stupid simulation project that is 40% of grade and is highly luck based. Lectures on about random stuff which is not on the exams. Memorize textbook for best chance to do well on exams. Avoid if possible.

Nice guy, ok teacher only problem i had was I don't think his test correlated with the text book or material he discussed in class. Do his review id probably the best way to study.

if you do your homework you'll benefit from what he has to say in class - ppl who slack don't deserve a high mark just because they attend class

If you take Bus 257 at Kings, go to main. This guy makes an already tough class way worse and I dread going to it mainly b/c of him. Everything anyone here has written about him is TRUE!

Gee...Hard to say... He might be an total expert in business operating, but teaching's definitly different. does he have to use those old slides that have been used for like 98 years or longer? and you gotta MUST have to check out his terrible jokes! most boring little jokes of the year #1,2,3,and... Anyway, he's being fair marking exams i think.

He's always available to help the students who want the help. If you don't care don't expect him to. I was scared about the class after seeing the ratings he got. So glad I took the chance and took his course.

I had him for marketing. It's not his primary course so you can tell he's not as into it as he could be. Nice enough guy, but he won't baby you. Tests and course work marked hard. If you participate, he tends to like you more.

I think he is better than the others have commented, with that being said there are better teachers at the school. Watch out for his white pit stained shirts.

Comment:

He is a sad man. I don't know why he gets off on making other live miserable but there arent enough words to say how bad this pompous jerk is. I hope some day he can find whats missing in his life and focus his attention on that. Take up knitting or somthing.
