I had instructor Comingdeer for HMG1100, an entry level course in Northeastern's HMG program. The course itself was not very difficult. This instructor has high expectations, but communicated clearly via announcements/emails. Was responsive to questions but wanted questions clearly articulated/specific. Used rubrics to grade so criteria were clear.HMG1100 2022-11-22 16:45:37 +0000 UTC
I took HMG1216, health law and policy, with this instructor. This class was very challenging, as it was worth double the credit. In my opinion, the instructor required a lot of work (multiple discussions + a paper or quiz/test every week), but he clarified that this course would have more work at the beginning. Tough but fair grader.HMG1216 2022-11-22 16:43:12 +0000 UTC
This instructor maintains a high standard. Grading is clear as he uses a rubric with each assignment. Sometimes I felt there were too many discussions (2-4 per week).HMG1100 2022-11-22 04:48:34 +0000 UTC
I had Prof. Comingdeer in HMG1216, law and policy. The material was dense and difficult. Prof. Comingdeer required a lot of work in this class, but explained it was a 'double' credit class meaning essentially double the work in the same amount of time. He gave clear but direct feedback. Timely responses to questions and emails.HMG1216 2022-11-21 16:36:30 +0000 UTC
I definitely agree with others' assessments that Prof. Comingdeer is tough. He has high standards. Grading was strict, but a rubric is provided. Prof. Comingdeer has a direct style of communication which might be interpreted as rude or sarcastic.HMG1100 2022-11-21 15:53:07 +0000 UTC
Rude. Inconsistent grader. Provided no clarity and contradictory.HMG1100 2022-09-14 15:52:32 +0000 UTC
This instructor is one of the worst I have ever had. Not very consistent and arbitrarily marks you each week. Even if you ask a question about upcoming exams or assignments, he does not seem to like that we even asked and would give a very sarcastic response.HMG1100 2017-02-20 21:42:27 +0000 UTC
