Comment:
Fr. Spiess is extremely knowledgeable and an excellent professor. I have learned more in his class than any other class I have taken at Lewis. If you do the work that is expected of you, pay attention and participate, you should have no issues with this class. I'm happy I was able to have him before he retires.

If you work hard and incorporate the reading into the in-class discussions and papers in a manner in which demonstrates specific and in depth knowledge you will be fine. Scamming your way through this class will result in failure. You have to work really hard just to pass. This was the most challenging comprehensive class of my college career.

Comment:
Very Arrogant (sort of annoying sometimes), but very knowledgable. Makes you feel like you shouldn't ask questions because you will be "wrong". I did learn a lot because of his stories and experiences. Make sure you are prepared for class and he will call you out.

Issues in Management is the Worst class I have ever taken in my 4yrs of college, must be taken with him, nobody else teaches it, the work load is so big that if you don't plan out your class schedule properly, you will be forced to drop the class. Every week there are 4 to 5 papers due, at a length of 2-3 pgs each. Reading and HW are just too much

Spiess is the single best professor I have ever had in my 22 years of education. I make six figures and I can honestly say without his knowledge and economics expertise I wouldn't be confident in this corporation. Take his class if you want to be in a harvard like business class.

Comment:
If arrogance was measured by the gallon, Spiess could fill Lake Michigan. It's ironic he teaches business ethics, as his own ethics have been seriously called into question at his north shore parish. Stay away from this guy; he's bad news.

Arrogant! The man is really full of himself and not much more- I will never take another class that he is "teaching" - the entire experience was awful.

DON'T TAKE HIM AT ALL!!!!! After doing all the work and all the assignments, including never missing a day in class, he still doesn't like giving more than two A's in class. So be prepared!... He's full of himself and thinks he knows everything. Do not expect to come with anything higher than a B.

Worst teacher I have ever had. He is so full of himself and all he does is ask questions of the students all class period and the first few classes of semester quizzes you on his history teaching. Avoid him

I dont think he was that BAD! But I was always scared to go to his class! You need to be prepared before you enter his class. It was very stressful. I wished they had other teacher as an alternative tho. Last but not least, he was kinda cute :) That was the one thing that motivated me to go to his class. Too bad he is a priest!

You have to know his teaching style in order to do well. If you pay attention in class and do your work then there should be no reason that you don't get an A because he grades a lot on class participation and the final book readings

one of the worst teachers i have ever had. Don;t ever take him if you don't have to. i thought about changing majors just because of him. i can't believe that this school still allows him to teach here. he should have been fired 20 years ago.

This guy is a complete jerk. He is soooo full of himself. The fact that he is a priest baffles me. He is definitely the most egotistical teacher I have ever had. Do not take his class unless you absolutely have to.
