He is demanding but fair, if you are lazy do not take his classes.

How can you not respect a man who wrote three books, teaches four different courses, has a piano in his office (does it work?), and still manages to be witty?

Dry humour has never been that funny! PLUS I learned alot!

Not bad decent guy fairly approachable

very good prof, but dont ever e-mail him...he is a little slow at responding sometimes. WEB PAGES are not fun

Very hot! Approachable, smart, caring. Who wouldn't like a professor who has done so much quality research, publishes extensively and does tai chi on the side.

LOVE THE GUY! He's funny, smart and an all around great guy.(The perfect man if you will) If you want an awesome prof, he's the one.

dr. chris is intelligent and interesting. he's a bit rough and gruff sometimes but not in a mean way. i enjoyed his class and so i decided to continue to take crim.

Excellent teacher and the most engaging. His use of measurements other than tests to access your knowledge is an excellent one. His dry sense of humour is second to none which makes the classes fun to be in. You learn so much in his classes because his l

great guy.

I really enjoyed Prof. Chris's class. He's very intelligent, a tad eccentric, but interesting and entertaining.

Great prof. Go to class and you will do fine.

good proff....be ready to take lots of notes. he tells good stories. start your web page early cause you will have problems!!!

Why are you people complaining? All you need to do is make a website, a poster, and attend a few classes and you are guarnteed at least a B. At least St Thomas has one prof that is not a radical leftist.

Chris is a great prof. He's clear in his expectations and fair in his marking, plus he's interesting to listen to.

This is a prof that expects you to attend class and do assignments, if you do that you'll be fine. Hes an awesome guy and an awesome prof, I took him for every class I could, he was a real GPA booster! Love ya Chris!!!!!!!!!

insanely unreasonable, difficult, and insists that you read and write thingsz, aggh

AWESOME! This class was VERY interesting and very relevant! (a nice change) Chris was clearly knowledgable about what he was teaching, his research in Atlantic Canada is very notable and his Gleaner column is the best the paper has. An awesome prof who knows his stuff. He is very fair.

Chris is awesome! People who do not enjoy him, clearly don't have a sense of humor! He is hilarious and his classes are awesome. I will say that some of the material is boring, but its school people!!

The course was great and very interesting. I liked his dry sense of humour. He is a very nice man who really cares about his students. Above all I learnt how to do a webpage. I got a whole lot more out of this course than what I expected

Great Prof and funny too! Great Class

Great Class - I learnt so much and will never accept another news commentary as so because some reporter said so!!!! You learn how to read between the lines and learn to develop fact from myth. Great class Dr. Chris! Your the Best!

Sometimes he can seem like he is apathetic about it all, but if you listen to his dry humour you'll get it. Never got below an A- but had to work for it. Hey Chris, we get it, websites are good to know how to do but give it up already, or give a paper option. Overall one of the best profs at STU.

oh so boring to ,isten to.. needs new jokes.. good class though

He is really enthusiastic about what he teaches. Although class attendance is not mandatory, he does not post his notes online and there are in class questions which he uses to keep track of who attends. These in class questions are worth 25% of your grade. I would definitely encourage people to take this class.

All of the information we needed was placed on a slide show and all we were required to do was write it down. If found this very helpful in learning the material. Movies were also shown and I enjoyed this as it broke up the class and made it so that the class was not boring.

Chris is a nice enough guy but I don't think he really cares about teaching Intro. It was all power-point and TONS of notes. You get NONE of your work back - just a mark posted, so you never know what you're doing badly on. I like him and would probably take him again but I wouldn't take his Intro class.

Very good prof, interesting, engaging, knows his stuff, good assignments, would recomend to others

favorite

Enjoyed the class - can be a little boring at times, but overall a good class.

Chris's first year class, was slightly boring, due to the amount of information, but Chris was a great prof. He knows his material very well, and expects his students to as well. There are a lot of notes, but they follow the text book excatly. Hard marker, but it is fair, he expects you to know your stuff!

I have taken both Historical reactions and wrongful conviction hes a wonderful teacher and I have learned so much from his classes. He wants hus students to do well and gives them the chance. His work load is a lot but he always gives feed back and enough time to do a good job. Anyone who doe not like him or the class clearly does not go or try.

His intro class is very boring, it's easy to fall asleep. Just reads the slides he presents, nothing more unless a person asks a question. He knows what he is talking about and can answer questions. As you get into the upper years he is a much better prof.

He is a really good proff. He gives you a lot of minor assignments that are only about half a page. As long as you do them an A shouldn't be hard to get. I have just signed up for four more classes he is teaching.

The Professor is laid back! He loves to teach and he loves to help students. He gives the chance to make all project "your own". He understands students are busy and does not put a lot on your shoulders. Taken every single class of his and love them all. Learning style is simple, if you show up to class.

Quizs are so hard. He asks pointless questions like 'what year did Jones say this?'

This professor is wonderful! The class was very interesting, and used excellent examples of case studies and speakers in class as well. The work was fairly simple and straight forward, and that he is approachable whenever you need him.

This professor really understands that we are human. He is very accommodating if you just talk to him. Very understanding and funny to listen to during lecture. Every other class had a question to answer for marks so don't skip if you can help it. Overall would take his class again in a heartbeat

Chris is best described as a relaxed prof that is very flexible with deadlines and excuses for missing class.

Hard marker but if you put in the effort &show initiative he really tries to be fair & help boost your mark. He will also let you resubmit things and is really understanding if you can't complete an inclass assignment, or if you need an extension for the project/proposal. Overall a nice guy, but you cannot do the bare minimum & get higher than a C+

Professor McCormick is one of the best at STU, very understanding and helpful in every aspect of teaching. You will learn some things in his class which will help you think critically and become a stronger student

he's a really good prof. his lectures are very heavy note based but if you go to class it's easy to get a good mark. he gives good feedback as well

McCormick is a great prof. He is very caring and understanding but if you don't like going to class, then he's not the prof for you. He's very lecture heavy and the slides are packed with information (i suggest taking pictures of the slides) and he goes through them fast. He is very compassionate about what he teaches and isn't a hard grader.

Chris is a very good prof. He is passionate about his areas of expertise and it shows. If you show up to class and participate, you will do well in his course.
