Thode is a self-promoting, pompous clown. No good, only understands the theoretical half of real estate, no real world experience. Tries to pretend he's a big-wig by buddying up to alumni who have gone on to be successful and claim that he influenced them. He's a joke. Dr. Glower should run the department over him.

I am almost embarrassed to be rating my professor; it seems like bad students are the majority of who uses this site. Thode is a really solid professor who tries to teach us how to think and not just crunch the numbers. I look for profs whose classes will help me in my career, not for the easy grade.

He is good. We only have two real estate experts in the business school, and both of them are doing a good job devloping the field. Along with professor Thode, professor Glower have been part of the reason many feel we are the 18th best business school. The class will prepare you well, the resources are there, and you make the choice to be smart.

Excellent professor. I was shocked to read others' comments. They may have been poor students.

The worst professor I have ever had. He teaches just for bringing the food on the table, and that's it! Do not want to be bother, do not want to help. Worst ever! I am a 3.5GPA, I am not joking around! But he is just He obviously doesn’t like his students. Thode! Lehigh is a good school, you don't deserve teaching here!

the wrost professor i've ever seen. extremely unapproachable, and when you finally get to meet with him for questions, he will make you feel that you are not wanted there. he doesn't teach AT ALL, but expects students to do well on their own. try to avoid him
