Comment:
This man is senile and constantly contradicts himself. He regular makes racist and sexist remarks, even insulting students in class. He changed the rubric for the final paper after students turned it in and made them re-write it if they want a good grade. "You're all incredibly stupid and I say that to insult you."

This man is the best instructor I have ever had, I have attended 2 schools after VF and he is still the man I call for help. I still have his cell, home and work number. He is dedicated to helping others learn anything and everything.

This Professor is completely dedicated to helping students that want to excel. You will love the way he teaches, unless you're the kind of student that likes being disrespectful and rude. History will be an enjoyment to learn, thanks to him.

Really enjoyed his class. He is a tough teacher and grader, but knows the material backwards and forwards. Also enjoyed having conversations with him after class. Take any one of his classes if you can!

This is literally my favorite professor that I've ever had, including 2 years at the Forge, 2 years in a follow-on University, and graduate school. This professor is motivating, brilliant, approachable, and truly cares for his cadets and their professional development. Definitely take a course with Dr. Murray if you have the opportunity!

A tough but brilliant professor. Sometimes his lectures will go WAY over your head. Beware, you will read A LOT and his exams are brutal. However, I have never had a better professor since Dr. M. He honestly changed how I write. Every class I've taken after him seems easy. I went from a 2.4 in high school to graduating early with my B.S. and a 3.4.

Dr. Murray is the best history teacher I have ever had. Although his classes are pretty difficult, if you follow the syllabus you will be fine. There is a lot of reading in his class and many essays. Every class if fun and interesting. He knows his stuff and by end of the class so will you.

This professor is, bar none, the greatest instructor I have had in my 14 years of learning. I feel that there are no adjectives in the human language to describe what an incredible instructor Dr. Murray is. His classes are intriguing, he is able to instill interest in anyone, and he does not hesitate for a moment to give up his time to help anyone.

Dr M is still the best History teacher I have ever had. I have two master degrees so I believe I have seen a few teachers in my day. He made me want to do better in class. He is the reason I was a history major in college. He always kept the classes interesting. Trust me VF has a priceless gem.

DR Murray had made me want to learn more. I would read books he suggested over breaks. He did not tell us about history he explained to us how we were part of history. I left VF and have served two overseas tours. Dr. Murray has been part of me every step of the way. Things I learned in his classroom have made me a better military leader.
