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!
By far my favorite professor at UCSB so far. He's probably the best prof in the econ dept as well. Very helpful, very insightful, and will want to help you succeed. His jokes are absolutely terrible but you'll get used to them. Go to class, go to section, ace the projects, and you should at least get a B.

Hands down best professor in the Econ department! Very helpful and super nice guy. He actually cares about his students' success, which is refreshing. Read the textbook, go to lecture (he gets an idea of who goes to lecture when he gives grades) and do his honor's section! If he knows you are interested in succeeding, he will make it happen.
The class was boring. But Professor Loster was really nice and lenient about the project and final. The most annoying thing was the project. Make sure you find the right people to work with otherwise it's going to be very hard....
Probably one of the driest classes I've taken at UCSB. Class and lecture is so boring, its painful. The upside is that Loster is a really cool and laid back guy. He's a retired lecturer now so he takes it very easy on the class. The group project is a little painful, but no midterm, and he's pretty lenient with grading
Loster is literally the man. Take his honors section and show him your remotely interested and make him remember you and you are destined to succeed in his class. final is predictable and exactly like his practice test. 4 page study sheet allowed during the final. Loster helps keep the class silly and makes the material less bland. HE IS THE MAN!
