Loster is the man. Make sure he learns your name, he's hilarious. Most don't take this class seriously because it's an elective, but it's easy if you put an ounce of effort into it. Group case studies can be frustrating if your group sucks, but work is not difficult. He curves if needed. I studied 6-10 hours/exam and got an A+. TAKE HONORS SECTION!
Loster is the only professor who replies your email within 10 mins and provide you a lot of useful information.
Loster is the man! Every accounting classes in UCSB should be taught by him. His lectures are very dry and made me fall asleep many times because of his monotone voice and dry material BUT aside from class, he is very experienced in the accounting field/teaching and will have many awesome stories. If you can get his honors section, do it!
Loster is a really nice guy with lots of experience in accounting. His tests are good and the stuff he teaches sounds useful. I screwed up and got and F on one of my midterms, but I did well on the final so he gave me an A-. I'm graduating next quarter and I've liked all my accounting professors.
Loster is best accounting prof at UCSB hands down. Make sure he knows your name and that you participate in class discussions and you will do well.
Rarely teaches lower div accounting so got lucky taking this with him this past summer. He's a hilarious old guy who's retired twice, so he's got plenty of stories to tell. Gives fair exams, clearly knows his stuff, & gives 2 dollar bills if you catch a mistake during lecture. Take notes/read the book and you're set!
