Reviews of professor Peter McLaughlin

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Prof. Mclaughlin was by far my most irritating experience with a professor in my college career. Although he wants the best for his students, the way in which he communicates, conducts class, and structures the course is beyond frustrating. Condescending language and tone, clear favoritism, and zero access to your grade. Lacking basic tech skills.

rude and disrespectful, definitely likes to act like a know it all

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
 Really easy class, no tests or quizzes. Weekly reflections due each week which are stupid simple. Lots of guest speakers and he tells many stories. One big project at the end of the class with informational interviews, the hard part is the presenting. Participate as he calls names and asks you many questions if you don't. I recommend him.

Professor McLaughlin was excellent. He cares about students, has a sense of humor, gives proper feedback, and the course is easy, you just have to show up. The grading criteria is clear and he is an easy grader. As he says at the start of the semester, stay on his "radar" and you will pass. He answers emails pretty quick (within 24 hours or so).

Professor McLaughlin is a respectable professor as he gives "REAL" world advice, instead of sugarcoating his criticism. I have learned a great deal in his class within one month than my entire academic career at CSUSM. Although, favoritism is obvious, just stay on his radar and you will do fine.

Great professor and person. He gives direct feedback that is crucial for real world application. He creates a healthy competitive environment for hungry students looking to challenge themselves. Take initiative to talk to him and volunteer for leadership positions, it will only benefit you. Heavy on projects but they are enjoyable.

One of the best professors I have ever had at this university. He is calm and straightforward and has respect for student's that participate and know the material. I hope he teaches more classes so I have the opportunity to be his student again.

He was overall a great guy who wanted to make you a better student and prepared for the business world. He only had one real quiz and one exam while the rest were presentations you had to do in class. As long as you do everything he says and participate in class, your grade will not hurt. Just be ready to present!
