Reviews of professor Craig Ford

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Some people complain about Prof. Ford, but in my experience, hes cool, and absolutely brilliant, but a rough grader. If you work hard, you can pull an A. There were a lot of instances where I disagreed with his opinions, never felt like he held it against me though, still got good grades as long as I was able to substantiate my counterarguments.

Professor Ford, if you're reading this, our readings have been way too long lately. Perhaps you should select the pieces of the text which are most pertinent to our discussion because it's been a lot; the religious texts are hard to get through as it is. But I love this class and you're the best professor.

I took Craig for Church in Controversy and it was one of the best classes I have taken at Fordham. It is a considerable amount of work with dialogue journals (basically a short letter to a partner in the class) every other week, one paper and a midterm and final, but so rewarding. Very caring and really wants you to succeed. Favorite professor

Great teaching style, but super tough when it comes to grading. Get ready to read long ass documents twice a week due the day before class, so no you cant leave it for before class or youll fail. Nice guy, but he's hard to please

One of the best professors in the Theology Department. Ford gives amazing lectures on dynamic social topics that really make you critically think about the world you live in. There's quite a bit of reading to do for weekly assignments, two reflection papers (no more than 5 pages), one group project, a midterm & a final. GO TO THE EXTRA CREDITS!!

Dr. Ford never once adequately prepared our class for a test, and even left for the week before our midterm. He gave us bad directions for studying, then proceeded to lose half the class's midterms after not handing them back for nearly two months. This is the closest I've ever come to lodging a complaint against a professor.

Professor Ford is amazing and he really make sure he connects with his students. He is so inspiring and I thought of him as my friend rather than thinking of him as a professor. However, you do have to work hard in his class. I didnt do a couple of homework assignments and that was the reason my grade was so low. But over all he is wonderful.

Very tough grader. Learned the material and made sure to work hard, but still not enough for him even after going to a few extra credits. Interesting lectures and felt like I learned a lot. A lot of reading every night. 800 word papers every two weeks worth 40% of your grade.
