Comment:
Arrogant, not helpful, NEVER gave us grades on the required weekly reflections and when asked 'I got 90's on the midterm and the project and participated in every class, why did I get an 80 in class?' Reid's reply: 'It doesn't matter what you got, grading is qualitative, not quantitative, and only people that I think are exceptional get A+'s'

Comment:
was very surprised by the fact that this prof down right asked us students to write a favorable note about our experience in "his" course and sent it through the gradlistserve, before our marks were due I might add...now how is that for ethical????

Comment:
i'll never forget how this prof occasionally punctuated his remarks with a certain four-letter word. hilarious. i don't think i learned too much in his class though. i think he was trying to turn us on to a more advanced/cutting edge theory of personality (interaction between the individual and environment) but it was an intro class...

He explains well, the problem is that there will be something completely different on the test + there are no B's. there are either A's or C's

Very scattered..DON'T MISS A SINGLE CLASS! Exam is on the pretty difficuly side. 100ish M.c. and the most difficult short answer. 9 page paper at the end...pretty easy. I would recommend this class..He is pretty funny and really doesn't cares about us

a bit scattered...but that's a good lecturing style. He is making larger connections that way. Patient, slow and bit boring...but the material is fascinating...he is caring and makes an effort..write him a question and he puts in 100% effort in answer
