He's funny and smart. Talks to fast, but he knows he's stuff and the mid-term and assignments are easy.

He was a great prof. Interesting and very easy. I think everyone who has taked PO110 can agree that the people before me rated him bad because that is simply a bad course. I had him for PO264 and would forsure take his class again.

He keeps you working, which is why some people don't like his style. Lectures have good flow and overall 101 is well put together given its a kind of survey course. looking forward to taking 264!

honestly a good guy, but the monotone voice and the lame jokes completly lost it for me. I thought politics was interesting until now. if u do go bring a laptop.

The best prof I have had thus far! Passionate about his work, extremely helpful, related all his material back to the real world and extremely clear when he spoke! He is your definition of a great prof! Highly recommended!

I thought that this course was one of my favourite in first year! The lecture style was clear and engaging.

I LOVE Anderson. Political science isn't the most thrilling thing at times, but he is such a nice and helpful guy!

I loved him, he's hot. And a pretty good prof too.

I enjoy his personality - he makes political science slightly more interesting. The lectures compliment the coursepack he uses - so it is important you open it from time to time. The assignments were kind of difficult. He was helpful though and updated WebCT often. He reminded me of Stephen Colbert - minus the Republican facade. Enjoy his class.

DR.Anderson is very knowlegable in his field and is able to pass this knowledge on to his students.

The work is a little tedious at times but overall CGA is an interesting and helpful prof, despite loads of comments he's definitely a fair marker

professor Anderson, i thought was a good prof. although sometimes his lectures were a little boring, hes very fair with the final as long as you go to class your fine.

An alright teacher compared to some I have suffered through.

I love this prof he is really smart and really helpful he loves to teach and it shows in his lectures and how engaging they are

I admit the lectures tend to drag on a bit but he's knowledgable and easy to talk to after classes.

Longwinded, but I have respect for CGA. He has to deal with fairly dry material and tries to integrate real-time media into his lectures. I would appreciate more condensed (i.e. less time spent on general information) and quicker lectures; it would add to the quality of the course. Get to know this him b/c he will help you if you really need it

Pretty cool dude despite being boring as a mafcka. Helpful and fair too. All good

A very decent prof. There was a ton of information to go over and he did a fabulous job of keeping it engaging.

Great Prof! He is actually really nice and tries to relate to his students. Fairly easy material to understand.

Wonderful teacher! Great use of vocabulary, and just a really nice guy. Easy to talk to after class, and best of all very humorous.

CGA is such a great professor! He's very helpful and overall makes class more fun to attend.

Loved Anderson, excellent prof!

Had CGA for po110/111. Great prof, loved his teaching style and he's very helpful. Can't wait to take more of his classes!

Had him for both 110 & 111. pluses: tries to keep lectures interesting & is very helpful. minuses: rambles a lot and is a harder marker. also writes killer exams but if you attend every class (yes there are pop quiz assignments!) and know your stuff you will get a decent-ish mark.

I had CGA for both 110/111 he's a really nice and approachable prof who care about his students. He does tend to ramble on but always tries to keep things interesting. I would definitely take another one of his classes.

Dr. Anderson was a pleasure to have and is truly a fantastic prof. His knowledge of the political world is remarkable and his comfortable, easy-going personality makes it easier to approach him for questions relating to the course and any other undergraduate related question. I highly recommend him, his classes are sometimes lenthy but worth while

Great Professor!!!

Love this man, super interesting to listen to and makes a boring topic fun. Love the class.

Great professor. Tries to make things interesting. Gives great explanations, and will really try to help you if you go see him. Focuses on teaching first and foremost. As long as you do your work, you'll be fine with him -- go see him if you think you were jipped in the grades dept. and he'll explain it all; and maybe even raise you up!

I had CGA in first year for both 110/111. Greatest prof ever. Very clear in his lectures and he genuinely cares about his students. I am in my 4th year now and if I found out he taught any seminars, I would definitely take them. Awesome man!

Interesting professor. Very energetic, he walks around a lot and maintains class focus. Sometimes he gets excited and talks really fast. An overall positive experience taking his course.

Amazing prof! So funny and very into his work. Will always make extra time to help a student. If you don't understand something please talk to him. He will help you. Talks too fast most of them time, but you get used to it. Marks fairly but does not give away grades. Most assignments are essays or short answer. Doesn't do multiple choice.

Makes politics interesting and fun! He is a really funny guy with a passion for his subject. Very approachable about any questions or concerns you may have about the course or any of your papers. Any class you have with him would be worth going to!

He loves his job and makes learning politics extremely easy. He's also incredibly approachable and understanding! Fantastic professor.

Really wants to help you out and he makes the subject matter as interesting as possible. Unfortunately that's not very interesting. Tutorials were the only interesting part but had to write 4 essays with only 2 graded

Fun and easy going prof. He's very clear about expectations / assignments, and is really into what he is teaching. Sometimes when you talk to him personally he can get a little confusing, but I liked his class and would want him again.

Professor Anderson is the best prof you will receive in pol sci! He gives you all the necessary tools to succeed and is so passionate about his job. If you ever need academic advising or have questions, go to him and he will be very helpful. He actually cares about his students and I love that. I can't wait to have him in upper year courses.

He was the best prof I've had so far! Is willing to help you if you're struggling in the class, and even when I didn't get enough time to finish my exam he assured me he would mark with sympathy. You don't need to read the textbook all that much, lecture material is DEFINITELY important so go to class or you'll be lost. Overall amazing prof!

Excellent professor, academic, and person to seek guidance from.

Dr. Anderson was nice enough, but can be a distracting lecturer. I would not recommend taking a 3 hr lecture of his, as it can get boring, and feel long. He is extremely helpful and fun to talk to when you go into his office hours, and his tutorial topics are interesting. The content is pretty dry, which affected the lectures.

He is a really great guy and truly cares about his students. I just could not follow along with his lectures but that is mainly because he spoke a little fast and some of the material just wasn't very interesting for myself. Nonetheless an all around great professor who is very sincere!

Great communicator, fun to come to class!

Anderson is an awesome prof who really cares about his students. I had an awesome time being apart of his IP300: Integrated Seminar in International Policy at the Balsillie School. It was a lot of work, but Anderson's direction made it worthwhile.

Favourite prof this past semester. Very caring and understanding.

Dr Anderson is an amazing professor, I loved being in his classes, while they are slightly difficult in terms of papers, he gives really nice feedback that will help you to get a better mark on the next papers that you will write

Dr. Anderson is by far my favorite prof. he cares about his students & will engage in discussions with the class and reach out to other profs on his student's behalf. He wants you to be successful and is always there to help. He won't give u marks for free you work and earn your marks, but he does everything he can to set his students up for success

Dr. Anderson is a fantastic prof. He talks really fast, but he keeps the material interesting and engages with the class. He definitely understands the struggles of a university student far better than most profs. An extremely sympathetic guy, he is always willing to help you outside of class, and he's willing to make accommodations.

Dr. Anderson is a great professor. He really engages the class and cares about his students. That being said you do need to put in a decent amount of effort or you wont do well. The only readings you do are for papers but they were dry. Nothing is particularly easy but it is definitely worth it and I would highly recommend his class.

We had to write four papers but they're not very long so it was not a very big deal. He is a tough marker but if you know the material you can get decent marks without an insane amount of effort. His lectures however are a bit hard to follow because he talks so fast.

A great professor and very helpful too. He is a tough marker, but if you go to his office hours and clarify your questions and put in effort, youll be fine. Makes courses also very interesting with his sense of humour and passion.

Interesting content, taught in a super clear and concise way and would cover any questions students had in class. Super accessible and approachable outside of class if you needed help, and had a clear grading criteria.

Dr. Anderson is a great prof. He is very accessible and answers questions very clearly. When he assigns papers he gives very clear instructions, so if you follow the instructions you will do well. He is very interactive during his lectures and makes his lectures interesting. Would recommend taking his class. Just get ready to read a lot.

Dr. Anderson was by far one of the best profs I had this semester. He is very easily accessible and responds to his emails very quick. If you ever need help he is always ready to help and his lectures were very interactive.

Dr. Anderson was probably one of the hardest markers I have ever had. I did relatively well in class, though; I just had to work twice as hard. Dr. Anderson cares for each of his students and ultimately strives to create and assess work with students in mind.

I had Anderson in my first semester of WLU and he was amazing in helping students transition into Uni lifestyle. His lectures were mandatory but he was very helpful in providing help and assistance if you didnt understand. He tried to incorporate group discussions during class to help deepen our knowledge and also tried to keep it fun!

Solid prof

Overall, Anderson's pretty cool. His lectures are informative but not too boring. You do have to write three kinda heavy papers, and one of them isn't even graded. If you don't hand in the one that isn't graded you do lose marks, and it's super unmotivating to write. Gives great feedback though, cool guy.

Dr. Anderson is very knowledgable and passionate about what he teaches and is very energetic making lectures enjoyable. He is not a particularly easy marker, but is still entirely reasonable. Highly recommend PO101 with this professor.

solid prof. He does talk really fast and too much to the point where you don't know whats important, but he's really engaging in lectures. We had 2 papers, a midterm, and exam. the midterm was easy as he tells you exactly whats on it. hard marker tho and attendance is mandatory as he does in class exercises which are worth 10% of your final grade.

Great professor!!! So helpful in office hours.

As long as you do your work on time, you will be fine. I barely went to lectures and did really well. PARTICIPATE IN TUTORIALS! Thats the secret to succeeding! Also, do not be scared if at first the ta's give you poor marks, they go easier on you later on in the course as long as you follow their feedback.

Course seems difficult at the beginning but as you ease into it Dr Anderson makes it an enjoyable and very beneficial course. he gives great feedback and engages with his students very well. dont get frustrated at the beginning of the course, Dr Anderson gives many opportunities to do better.

Dr. Anderson is a very respectful professor and has engaging lectures. Show up and read the textbook as much as possible .

PO 263 was the best class I have ever taken and Dr Anderson Is the main reason behind that. His classes were always extremely interesting and enjoyable.

tries to find marks for you where he can

Super nice guy. The course is exam heavy but he will try to find marks wherever he can. Don't buy the textbook, it's useless

Christophe Anderson is an angel sent from heaven. He truly cares about his students and wants us to succeed. He is a tougher marker than other professors, but he will definitely teach you skills to succeed in this course and in future courses you will take. I wish poli sci department would have him back as the main advisor, he knew what he was doin

Great professor. However, his passion for the subject might be a little TOO much. It is sometimes hard to decide to take notes on, as the slides are quite hard to follow. Thankfully Dr. Anderson posts a "test prep" online before exams. If you went to lecture and read the textbook, these posts will save you. DONT SKIP CLASS, PLEASE!

A prof who really cares about his students, and if you put in the effort, you will do well in his classes.
