Gormley is the greatest professor ever. He is absolutely hilarious, and cares about his students so much. There is some reading, but you normally get a very high grade no matter what. He's the best, I'd recommend him 200%. Not enough words to describe how great he is

Professor Gormley is phenomenal. An amazing asset to Broome. Took his class last fall and wish I could take it again! Challenges students to think critically and participate. Everyones opinion is welcome and he explains things so well. He is willing to help with anything. Do the work and you will get an A!

No longer go to the school. Yet, from my academic experience, the best professor yet if you want someone who brings freshness to each topic on a deeper level.

Gormley is a great professor, would most DEFINITELY take him again and recommend to others. Great topics and lectures, funny guy. He genuinely cares about students work and well being. You won't pass if you don't put in the effort and work, read ALL material, or you won't succeed. Great class. He is professor who likes group work as well. :)

Gormley is awesome. He's funny too. Can be kind of pushy, but in a good way. He tries to push you in the right direction for the answer. If he questions a remark or response, don't take it personal, he's just trying to get you and the class to think deep. Great professor and very personable. Make a connection early and you'll do great!

Took one of his online classes. It was the only online class I've actually liked at SUNY Broome. He's fair and he provides you with good lecture notes that help you understand all of the stories really clearly. Really enjoyed the class and would definitely recommend him! It is crucial to not get behind on reading for weekly assignments.

Professor Gormley is awesome! He makes his class both entertaining and enlightening. There's a lot of writing and each module has at least 2 assignments - but as long as you keep up on your reading and his specs, it's no problem. One of the best profs at Broome!!

Make sure you read the booksassignments, he calls on people randomly and you have to be ready to talk. Class is a lot of participation, which is nice bc it reinforces material. Need a sense of humor with this prof, he likes to joke wyou. However, he truly knows what he's teaching. Cares about his students and will check in with you. Recommend.

He knows and covers a lot, maybe too much. The class I'm in has a bunch of rude students who constantly talk to each other. He's patient with them but at times will be a bit snarky with them. On the whole a good teacher as long as you want to work you'll learn

Prof. Gormley is da man! He us absolutely one of my fav. Profs. I've had at bcc and one of the best they have to offer. He makes class very interesting and the readings about the social environment and justice are very interesting. He is tough but at least he's a fair grader. Gets funny at times. Would totally recommend to anyone.
