Reviews of professor Ormonde Cragun

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
You do not have to show up to class because he posts all the PowerPoints online. However, he enjoys when people do show up to class and you can tell that he really cares. He's hilarious too. He makes study guides for every test so you know exactly what to study. Usually HW every week but it's with a group so nothing big. Cragun is a great option!

For a first time prof, Dr. Cragun is pretty good at his job. 4 exams that total to 72% of your grade, final is non-cumulative. You get put into teams of 3-6 to work on writing assignments and a project due at the end of the semester. Assignments are 2-3 pages each with 1-2 per week , but split between 3-6 people its an easy workload. A solid choice

He made the HR core class interesting and relevant. He has lots of corporate experience so he gives lots of useful personal anecdotes to supplement class material. He was willing to help students with resumes and negotiating salary with real job offers. Weekly to bi-weekly online book assignments that were straightforward, extra credit opportunity

Cragun is one of the best professors I've had in LSBE. His lectures are super interesting and have lots of stories to tell as he used to be an HR manager before teaching. You really learn a lot from him. Smartbooks and in-class quizzes are easy, with lots of opportunities for extra credit, though the tests are challenging. Make sure you study!

Honestly one of the best professors in LSBE. Though the exams were a bit tough, it was still a great course that gave us a solid overview of training and development.

Exams are very difficult. The class is relatively easy but the exams do not show how well you know the material. It is 60 minutes for 60 story questions.
