Comment:
Dr. Carmichael is the hardest professor I have ever had but his class was by far was the most rewarding. Both Dr. Carmichael and the TA were ALWAYS available for any questions outside of class. He was a tough grader, but that made receiving an A all the more rewarding. Those who are complaining more than likely did not put forth much effort.

Comment:
This instructor does not give 100's (his words). This instructor gives C's for what he says is a "solid paper". Reading is extensive. Grading is not based on objective criteria. This instructor picks favorites. The TA gave me A's he gave me C's the quality of work was the same. I am normally an A student.

I have to say that Dr. Carmichael is one of the best professors I've ever had at UNCG. He was always helpful and caring, and he pushed us to do well. If more professors cared as much about their students as he does, college would be alot more meaningful. He is really passionate about his work and his classes are always interesting but challenging.

Comment:
This class was my hardest. Lots of reading and quizes twice a week. Passionate about his lectures but often hard to follow. He has his teaching assistants do all the dirty work and bosses them around. They do grade everything as well so that is one plus. Probably the only about this class. Don't take unless you have to.

He is great. He doesnt yell at you if you ask a question, rather he encourages discussion. He has his TA do the work because thats how he started out. Lot of work and reading in his upper level classes but he is a great guy and is more than willing to help. Must take if you are a history major.

He assigned a lot of work, but he made the class enjoyable. He seems really interested in the topics and genuinely helpful if you had questions. TA's did grading, but he was more than happy to discuss any questions/concerns.

I thought he was a great speaker and very interesting. He tried to spark class discussion and I think he really cared what the class had to say. I got a high B and I enjoyed the class without working too hard.

Dr carmichael is the worst professor I have ever had, He only glazed over the important facts of history instead forceing on trivialities. He had his TA do all the work. He basicly yelled at you if you bothered to ask him for help and if answered one of his questions in class if you didnt give the exact answer he wanted he would cut you of

I was really surprised that people didn't like this guy, I thought he was great. I'm not much of a history person but you could tell he really got into what he was doing and enjoyed it which made the class better. I would recommend him!

Perhaps the most thought provoking and engaging professor I've ever had. He is NOT an easy grade, but it is extremely gratifying when you get that 'A' back as your grade. I learned more from him -- history, life, etc. -- than perhaps from any prof.

Dr. Carmichael is caught on his self. He likes to hear the sound of his own voice, he is right and will continue to always be right. I cant believe they gave him tenor. AVOID him at all cost if you dont want to fight for your opinion on a DAILY!
