Professor Orlando is a great professor and has great public speaking skills. His class is fairly easy as long as you and your group work together on projects and the tests. I really enjoyed his class since he not only talked about Sport Administration but also gave us really good lectures on life and career skills that are important for success

Unnecessarily rambles off topic a lot of the time. Wouldnt take it unless you really needed the credits

This is the 2nd class I've taken with Mark and I genuinely enjoyed it so much. The content is really interesting and the class is engaging. The basis of the class is creating an NBA franchise and arena. It was fun and a very doable class, easy to get an A if you show up and do the work.

Dr. Orlando is genuinely one of the best profs I've had at UCSB. You can tell he cares about his students and wants them to learn & thrive. Class is super interesting and engaging. Barely any homework besides the group project & he gives extra credit sometimes. Planning on taking more courses with him in the future. Highly recommend taking him!

Orlando was by far one of the best professors that I have had at UCSB. ESS100 is one of the few classes where I felt actually engaged in. You have group projects, where you experience hands on work, as well as amazing lectures. He tells personal stories, which inspired me to go into the business field. I highly recommend Orlando!
