Chris Craig is a gift to his students and Emmanuel should be so lucky to have him. The fact that this petition is necessary in the first place is both extremely upsetting and indicative of where Emmanuel's priorities lie.

I was on Chris Craig's dissertation committee and know what an original and incisive thinker he is. He is a committed, dedicated, creative teacher and scholar and deserves tenure.

Chris Craig is a brialliant professor and it deeply saddens me that his tenure is even a question.

Chris is a colleague, friend, and an exemplary teacher: deeply committed to his students as thinkers and agents of change.

Chris was the best lit professor I had at Emmanuel. It's ridiculous that he didn't get tenure. If anyone deserves it, it's him.

I respect Chris Craig for sticking to his guns and making no compromise in the way he taught and delivered his message. I'm sure he knew all along that this would happen, as its quite obvious to anyone with a brain that this school is headed by a bunch of stiffs. He gave us all a platform to think critically, speak candidly, and i appreciate that. The bigger problem is that Chris is one of a few recent cuts that are totally ridiculous. Degooyer, Falvey and Baard were also great educators who delivered their lessons in unique and engaging ways. Was my Grammar and syntax off? Maybe EC should have stopped replacing all of our accomplished English professors with adjunct professors half way through my college career.

Dr. Craig shaped my education. He deserves tenure, and students deserve to have their voices heard.

Chris Craig is THE best professor I've had at Emmanuel. The way he exposes economic and societal truths have radically shifted my view of society--but I guess Emmanuel doesn't want that.

Chris Craig is the latest in a number of questionable tenure decisions made by Emmanuel. There needs to be a clearer line of communication with students about tenure decisions besides the very lackluster one page, politically correct yet supremely uninformative response on the Portal.

It's ridiculous that this petition even exists in the first place. The man is a gift and Emmanuel's lucky he deigns to work there.

Chris Craig taught me many truths about the world we live in, out of all my professors Craig has inspired me to not let the constrictions of society determine my path. Also the reading selections were beyond superb! Thanks for reminding me of my love for learning.

If Chris Craig does not get tenure, Emmanuel does not deserve to be accredited.

A professor who inspired critical thinking and resistance to the status quo.

Chris Craig was a major influence on my development during college, both academically and as a person. He is the reason I am currently teaching. Losing him at Emmanuel would decrease the rigor in the education the college is offering.
