Christopher P. Manfredi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Christopher Manfredi)

Christopher P. Manfredi (born 24 March 1959) is a professor of political science, acting Principal and Provost and Vice-Principal Academic at McGill University.[1] From 2006 to 2015 he served as McGill's Dean of Arts.[2] He studied at the University of Calgary and received his PhD from the small private college Claremont Graduate School. Though he has no law degree, his research focuses on the Supreme Court of Canada.[3]

In 2024 Manfredi made the decision to cancel a semester of the McGill Faculty of Law in order to prevent the school's faculty from unionizing. In response, the school's students union stated that "It has now become clear that McGill recklessly jeopardizes our semesters and the quality of our education in pursuit of its own interests."[4]
