<p>Well, here’s some anecdotal information for you:</p>
<p>Econ 1 for Spring 2009 was taught by Prof. Olney. It just so happens she is a great teacher…
“Professor Olney is the recipient of UC Berkeley’s Distinguished Teaching Award (2002-2003); the Jonathan Hughes Prize for Excellence in Teaching Economic History (1997); Distinguished Teaching Award, University of Massachusetts (1990-1991). She was selected as a “Great Teacher in Economics” by the Stavros Center for Economic Eductation in 2007.”</p>

<p>Yes, it really is “ouch for UC Berkeley undergrads” … :rolleyes:</p>
