Reviews
Professor Monahan is amazing! Lucky to have him for Bearsprints for Success. He gives a lot of comments that shows he cares about students on thought papers despite being graded on completion. In class, he is also very energetic and funny, which makes discussions not boring. Highly recommended to have classes with him!
