I'm coming in later here, as I believe that he has retired, but he was a fantastic prof. I regret that I waited until senior year to take one of his classes, a truly great, interesting, and engaging guy.

My best professor in my entire college and law school experience. He pushes you to write more clearly, think more precisely, and all that while making class fun. He will throw chalk at you if you fall asleep, and don't expect an A, but you will learn so much!

Much like Bill Sequin was, but with a much kinder heart and a British accent to boot. Amazing guy, incredibly smart, and his classes are always memorable. He's retiring after next year, so take one of his courses while you still can!

it might be worth pointing out that if you stripped peter of his charming british accent he might not seem so charming. quite the opposite even.
