[1] Club 6.0 at Haas School of Business is a recognition of professors who have median 6.0 and above on a 7-point scale in regard to instructor effectiveness, other than overall course evaluation. On average, 30-40% of tenure track faculty enter this club each semester;

[2] The daytime MBA rating is the result of the students’ reaction to the instructor change, and back-to-back teaching in my first year. My daytime MBA teaching rating for the course (most recent rating: Spring 2007), as well as all other Ph.D and undergrad-level courses, has improved since then.
