Comment:

He was interesting and arrogant in a good way. However, i hate him for one simple comment: he said in class that the marriage is giving up your right to choose, but having a kid isn't because the state is their to take the baby if you don't want it. This guys thoughts on family are just ridiculous.

Comment:

Peter is a great prof. Those who claim that he is "arrogant" are often those who have tried to challenge him and failed miserably! Peter's lessons extend past his lectures as he also teaches through a presentation of his own reactions/behaviours, which he enacts for the students. The responses and feelings he evokes in class are a means of bring

Comment:

Simply put, nothing less of inspiring. He actually is just himself, everyone has an ego, but he's brilliant. Can you blame a guy for knowing what he talks about? Had his class twice, never sensed arragance. Most approachable prof there is. Genuinely cares about people.

Amazing, simply amazing. Has a way of elucidating material which would otherwise be inpenetrable. Simply put, one of, if not the best prof I've ever had.

Comment:

perhaps the smartest man I have met. He makes philosophy not only interesting but encourages it as a way of life. How can you be anything but humbled by this man. Probably one of the guiding influences in my life. If you can take a class with him, DO IT!

Great teacher, enlightening and inspiring, though at times he can come off as a little egotistical. Never the less, he has a very interesting way of looking at the world, and is always ready to help anyone who is having trouble understanding it. brilliant

Comment:

I have yet to encounter a profeesor as egotistical and infantile. I had him when he wasn't new but it seems times haven't changed. His class is run on cliques of adoring undergrads and really I believe he has no idea what he's talking about. Stifling.

This man will tell you he is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Interesting but arrogant. I don't think there was room for students in the classroom when he and his ego breezed in. He was new when I had him so maybe times have changed.
