Watkins teaches Georgraphy A nice guy, but his tests are oriented toward tiny details that do not really make a whole lot of sense. I liked him and all, but I'm salty that I got a grade I don't believe I deserved because he feels the need to go into a microscope on test questions rather than "broad themes" like he says. Sometimes it seemed like the exams were made the night before. He claims to have the "Big Picture" view of product profitability and transnational marketing. Big emphasis on the emerging Chinese market and the threat it represent to the USA.
Awesome
Professor Watkins class was overall very easy. Your grade consisted of 2 comments, 2 blogs, and 3 exams. Because he posts the powerpoints online you do not have to attend class, but I still suggest going to understand the material better. The tests are pretty easy but you have to know little details. Overall, I strongly recommend this professor!

Prof. Watkins is amazing! Exams come straight from lecture and is kind of detailed. He gives study guides and review days in class and really cares about his students. He also asks students for comments/suggestions and actually implements them. Overall, he's a great professor!
