THIS MAN HAS CHANGED MY LIFE AND VIEWS OF THE WORLD. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIS CLASS TO ANYONE WILLING TO EXPAND THEIR BELIEF SYSTEM. THE CLASS IS NOT EASY, BUT NOTHING WORTHWHILE IS.

A complete nightmare! Way too many unprofessional comments, will not prepare you well for tests/ exams, completely ruined my experience of learning about world religions.

This professor was an absolute nightmare. I took him my final semester of my Upper div. work and it was intro class. He wouldn't listen to input, he screwed up my grade and I had to appeal to the dept head to get it corrected. He's erudite but more scattered than confetti!

Comment:

This class was alot of fun, it really opened up my mind, he is a funny teacher. But when he goes home and thinks up his tests, its like Dr. Jekle and Mr. Hyde, his tests are sooooo hard and it is overwhelming. It seems that he will let everyone pass, but do not expect to get an A

World Religion class in the summer is great! He is not as hard in this class as he is in the logic course. The bonus is the semester is only 6 weeks.

Comment:

I loved the class, and I found him very funny and entertaining. Itw as hard, but I learned a lot. He really opened up my mind about a lot of things. If you have a dry sense of humor and are prepared to work very hard, I think you would get a lot out of this course.

Comment:

Amazing class. He taught other religions objectively, if you're into it this class will blow your mind. Be sure to read the texts because the tests ask for exapmles. Mr. Peterson is one of the best teachers I've ever had.

Brilliant mind but a little spacey as a teacher. He's read so much that it's scary for students who've never even read a book till coming to BC.

He is one of the worst teachers I've ever had. Instead of providing an actual lecture, he read straight from the book almost the entire class period. Very boring and also a very hard grader.

Very demanding & the class was hard, but looking back on it I now appreciate all that I learned. Thank you, professor. And I really liked his dry sense of humor (which lots of the others didn't get.)

Very hard class. Voice based lectures, didn't really use the board. I had to memorize a whole bunch of stuff for his exams and they were pretty hard even though it was all multiple choice. Just way too much to memorize and study for.
