He's definitely one of the nicest professors I've had, as he really cares about his students and wants us to succeed. He's laid back, but still manages to do a very good job of teaching the course, and I have learned a lot from him. Also, the final is take-home, which is very convenient, and you definitely don't need the textbook. Highly recommend.MUSI1230 2017-12-12 23:32:30 +0000 UTC

This professor is one of the most helpful and knowledgable ones I've ever had. He really wants his students to do well and he has a ton of experience in the music industry. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND anyone to take a course with him.MUSICIND2 2009-12-09 09:02:22 +0000 UTC
Great teacher, class is easy and informative. He gives you all the notes you need to know, and tells you clearly what to study for for exams. He helps out with any questions, even non-class related. Would take any course he teaches at NEU!MUS203 2009-12-04 14:55:37 +0000 UTC

Janikian is a great guy and has a lot of experience and interest in the music industry. The class isn't very challenging, but it gives you a chance to hear the range of opinions from fellow majors on current topics in the music industry.MUSU601 2008-04-15 16:23:50 +0000 UTC

One of the best professors I've ever had. Very laid back, loves to talk about the music industry. Makes boring stuff like copyright law easy to understand. I will take every class I can with him.MUSINDUSTRYI 2005-09-01 18:14:01 +0000 UTC
Very interesting, laid back, and easy, but you will come out of his class having learned something and formed some new opinions of your own about the music industry.MUS230AND231 2005-04-18 14:48:57 +0000 UTC
Leon is SUCH a great guy. Doesn't make class impossibly hard, but you definately learn a lot. He's very easy to talk to, very understanding and conveys music industry concepts well. I'd take a class with him every semester if i could. Can he adopt me??MUSIND12 2004-12-11 16:16:54 +0000 UTC
