  • "Professor Blondi was an absolute pleasure to have as an instructor, he reaches out and offers help to every student, and checks in just to see how the student is progressing and if they have any questions or need anything. He has unique and vast knowledge and experience in our profession which enhances the course material and the learning experience. Professor Blondi has made my experience of obtaining a masters degree while juggling a crazy work schedule and family an absolute pleasure, he worked with each of us to make sure we understood and were able to complete all the work accordingly and I've learned a lot."
