Comment:

LOVED THIS CLASS! If you are organized and work a minimum, you'll get great grades. Take notes in class and do the readings. Everything is interesting. The class is interactive, the prof keeps people awake and interested. Interesting topics. I learned so much and had so much fun! Very helpful and sweet prof, fair and easy grading.

Comment:

The readings are interesting, but I had higher expectations for the class than were met. He is smart and has good intentions, but his lectures rarely cover the readings, and there is a big workload. Also, the tests seem to cover information that isn't necessarily pertinent to an understanding of the overall course.

Comment:

I took professor Minn last semester and had mixed experiences in his course. He is a fantastic lecturer but course readings are lengthy and a major time commitment. He seemed to want to stress that his courses are not easy, but rather, require a lot of time. NOT great for an elective!

Pierre is an incredibly nice and he is also brilliant. Whoever said he didn't know the material doesn't know their stuff; this guy can ramble off bibliographies till the cows come home. Interesting, easy and smart. Take his class.

easy class, knows what he's talking about, makes course material interesting. Unless you're from cult studies or something, you will not find this class hard or boring.

Comment:

His ego supercedes his intelligence. I really dislike this guy. He is very smug and uses a sesame street approach to teaching: dummy down the concepts and tell a lot of entertaining stories to obscure the fact that he really does not know the material. I would have expected a more experienced prof to teach 227, especially given McGill's reputatio

He was a guest lecturer for Anthro of Religion, and I must say, he was quite a guy! Wow, I had never been so impressed after a lecture at McGill - he was excellent... very clear, knowledgeable and entertaining, and yes, he IS cute!

Very promising professor. I could have never guessed that it was his first experience as an instructor. Helpful, kind, funny and most important, passionate about his work. I would take any course he offers without hesitation.
