Professor Reader is a great professor with a lot of knowledge. So far as I know, he is very well respected by students and among his colleagues. I would highly suggest you take him. He is willing to help you out, always. Be warned though, not an easy A.

Comment:
Professor Reader is not the ideal professor, he expects you to teach him the material of the class rather than the other way around. He does not lecture and thinks a class is sitting in a circle and talking. He does not favor minority students and he will treat minorities like they are inferior and not worthy of getting an education. I

Comment:
His tests are taken with index cards so you may take down inane details from the book. questions require quotes from the book so if you don't get precisely what he thinks of on your card you have no chance of getting the question right.

Reader is a great professor. Yes, he gets sidetracked during lectures, but what professor doesn't? Funny guy with great stories. He's always willing to sit with students that need help. Watch your grammar--he deducts points if you don't write at a college appropriate level.

Reader is a great guy. Good professor. Allows notecards on exams. Lectures are extremely boring however, and he often goes off on tangents. Has trouble staying focused. Still, good to students and very fair. Exams are not difficult.

Comment:
This class was excruciatingly boring. I found his lectures to be somewhat scatterbrained and very hard to take notes from on many occasions. Reader is a really nice professor though, and seems to realize how boring the class is (it's a requisite for the Soc major). There are 3 exams, all of which are pretty easy (he allows the use of notecards).

My favorite prof during my four years at Drew. Talk to him outside of class, the man has amazing stories to tell, and he's humble about them, so you have to prod.
