Comment:

Carrington is the most boring man I have ever had to deal with. Sitting through class is difficult. If he takes attendence in the beginning, let your name get called and BE OUT!! Midterm and Final are easy because he gives you the questions and proper answers. Def reccomend another professor if you're a philosophy major

Comment:

Boring class. He claimed it was because my clas was his last class of the day and he himself was feeling tired. He gives oyu the questions for the midterm and final. And the answers are discussed in class.there is one paper and a few extra credit opportunities. Good luck

Comment:

Carrington's class is brutally boring. However just bring your laptop and dont pay attention. If you attend the review classes before the final and midterms, you will get an A on the course, without attending any class at all. He is a cool guy but really boring. He gives you the answers for everything, which is good.

TERRIBLE Prof. I Hate him so much. Can't teach, grade or speak. He should just retire. Only take him if you really really need the credits to graduate. Other then that run away as far as you can from him.

Comment:

there was only 3 grades: midterm, term paper, and final. only homework was to read. class was really hard didnt understand the guy made no sense and would often lose train of thought and stare out the window and start to talk bout something totally different. he is a hard grader, but gives you the answers to his exams before you take them.

Very boring teacher, snooze fest every single class. No idea where he is ever going with notes and such. Only grades are a paper, mid term and final, and he grades those very hard.

Comment:

He is a boring professor. You really have to listen and pay attention hard to understand. The only way you do, is by reading the assignments. Thats what you need to do well. His exams are easy, because he reviews the essay questions and tells you what they are. I worked not too hard, got an A

Comment:

This guy was by far the most boring teacher i've ever had. He's supposed to be a college professor?? He makes no sense with his words and stares out the window every few seconds. Take this guy as a teacher at your own risk. He doesn't teach and expects you to know what is going on.

Comment:

While he isn't a hard teacher, two essays and few tests directly from the reading he is very dry and talks for the entire class while spacing out. He isn't a bad guy though. Most people with some effort received a B. Not the worst, Not the best.

Comment:

SOOOOO BORING!!! HES VERY DRY, STAYS ON THE TOPIC FOR A LONG TIME, AND WHAT MAKES IT WORST IS HE STUT-STUT- STUTTERS. YOU CAN SEE IT IN HIS FACE THAT HE GETS UPSET WHEN HE STUTTERS AND HAS TO PAUSE FOR A MINUTE TO REGROUP HIS THOUGHTS. WATCHING HIM DO THAT IS THE BEST PART OF THE CLASS. PLE- PLE- PLEASE IF YOU CAN SAVE YOURSELF. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.

Comment:

I originally thought he wasn't as bad as everyone thought. But now that I had other competent philosophy professors everyone else is right. This guy will bore you to tears and is very close-minded when students voice opinions. It was a pretty easy B for me but this class was a bad experience. Stay away from Carrington if you want to learn something

Comment:

The man is really UNFIT to teach and a waste of tuition money. He appears very disinterested and typically awards grades in the "c"-"C+" range.I legitimately wish followed my instinct & withdrew right after the end of our first interaction.

Nightmare. Sucks. Boring. Harsh grader- these are the words that come to my mind that would describe him. If you have a sleeping problems just take him he will make sure that you will have a good sleep in less than 15min. If you care about your GPA DO NOT TAKE HIM. SAVE YOURSELF.

This was the worst class ever. I am an A student and believe me i studied really hard for this class still got a C. Boring. In order not to fall asleep you have to bring your laptop. Thanks God this class is over. I advise you dont take him if you want to save your GPA and save yourself a headache!
