Comment:

I can see why some people say that Professor Reichl is monotonous in speech, but I thought he was engaging--funny and thought provoking! His lectures were profound and open minded, and I enjoyed the class discussions we had, as many people felt comfortable enough to comment. He is patient and is clear about his expectations. I would take him again!

Comment:

His POV was very different, as he is a non-localforeign prof. and this made his grading difficult. Grading seemed to be based on you agreeing with his own opinionsviews, rather than objective evaluation of your executionsupport for your arguments in writingessaystests. Perspectives date back to the 'old' anthropology rather than more modern.

This class was by far one of my favorites. He's super down to earth and makes the class interesting. The lack of pretense makes the class more about the journey of learning and makes you care more about the subject.

horrible professor. made anthropology boring. only 5 assignments (3 tests, 2 papers) and as long as you turn in all assignments you are guaranteed a C. write something on each question and you get some points, no points for blank answers.

Even though his lectures are boring, the class is very easy. As long as you do the essays and turn them in on time, you'll do fine! Also he gives study guides for the exams so there are no surprises.

He is a great professor, interesting, talks alot, gets along with the students, what is surprising is that he remembers faces with names. Thats always good, it shows connection. He and his class is interesting.

LING/ANTH 331...Heavy on the ANTH; LING concepts fuzzy. Almost seems apathetic about the topic.

Comment:

He's a little eccentric, but that's what makes his class so interesting. His voice is monotone, but lectures are never boring. He's tough on proper citation, which I ended up appreciating because that's how I learned to do it correctly. You won't like him if you don't want to do any work and expect to get an A. If you do get one, you earned it.

Comment:

he talks like the teacher from south park, but as soon as you get over his voice...hes a nice guy. hes very inthusiastic about topics he is interested in. he tends to drift off into the whole "my experience" stories but it kinnda helps i guess? but he may be very harsh on citations in essays, but if you get the citations rite? your all set.

Despite his drawling voice, the lectures are rather interesting. Just do the reading and answer the questions on the study guide and you'll do fine.

Comment:

Really nice professor who treats everyone equally and doesn't play favorites like a few of the other professors. The ethnography class is fun, flexible, and interesting. We had to do an easy midterm, a research project that consisted of 3 papers that were 8-12 pages each and a 7-10 minute oral presentation on our findings.

unorganized but anal retentive; ambiguous and unfair with grades; busywork, bs assignments; does not stay on topic; lectures have nothing to do with test material; boring readings that are not well explained

I was a anthropololgy major until I took his class. I look back on this class and I realized that I didn't learn a thing except how anal some people can be.
