Best prof ever!!!! SO So funny has great stories!!!

hes really funny but gives tons of notes every class, exam covers too much info

nice but hard tests

This class is fun. A lot of notes, but he is cool & keeps it interesting

funny guy. boring class, makes it bearable. tests hard-only 2

Didn't do anything all semster and still managed to get a C+, funny guy

Alot of reading but his classes are interesting, so its worth it.

i would take him again if i could. he loves what he is doing. makes history so interesting. he's probably one of my all time favorite professors! We need more teachers like him!if you're going to take him, be prepared 4 the work. he's all worth it! A+++++

Very good... funny guy too. Has time for questions and will help after class. Go to class and read a little and you can get an easy B. doesnt take attendance but still GO to class, he notices.

His lectures are great. He is a funny guy. No mid term or final just a big paper, but it's not that bad. I recommend taking him.

i hate history but he made it fun. AWESOME TEACHER. take him NOW!!!

Great teacher, knows his stuff and makes it fun. A lot of reading. Funniest teacher I have had. Take his class!

funniest guy ever!

Absolutely hilarious. Goes crazy sometimes and you don't wanna miss it. Take his class just to laugh your ass off!

He is a great techer lecture are easy to follow. All tests are essays and he grades them hard. A lot of outside reading that you have to keep up with. If you dont like to read don't take this class.

a funny guy, a fun class, not boring at all, very enjoyable, there is alot of reading outside the class, just do it, and no problems. great teacher

OK i dont know what people are talking about when they say interesting because that is just a flat out lie. You never have to go to class and if u do good luck staying awake. Tests are easy midterm, final, 2 books. Just teach yourself out of the text book

Oh man, i love this man. i know hes not really that good lookin, but he was soo funny that i had to say he was hott. i loved his class, it wasnt too hard as long as you keep up with the reading outside of class. take him, i LOVED him!

He knows what he is talking about. funniest professor I ever had. Definately take his class!!

very good teacher-he knows his stuff! lots of notes, but show up to class and you'll do fine. 3 or 4 books to read plus chapters in text book, but not nearly as bad as it sounds. awesome at giving examples that are relavant to your life so you understand

Awesome teacher. I took him for native american history, which was a great class to take. I learned so much from him and he made class fun. Only 3 papers and two tests- and he gives you the essay questions ahead of time. I definitely recommend taking him

This guy is tough. He assigns ridiculous amounts of reading and the tests are all essay questions. He grades everything very very hard. You also have a 15 minute presentation. Don't take!

Funniest class ever, always interesting and fun. Takes breaks for comic relief and really knows his material. He knows what he is talking about and make someone who hates history want to learn it.he does have difficult exams but gives the essay ?'s b4

Best history class I've ever taken! There was a lot of info crammed on only few exams- but if you do the reading and show up to class you can handle it. You'll probably want to go to his class anyway. Funny guy, very smart- I definately reccomend him.

He is very intelligent. He makes jokes throughout his lectures. Give very interesting lectures, clear and easy to comprehend. I would take him again for another history class. I recommend him highly.

Very good professor. Lectures turn directly into perfectly organized notes. I recommend this professor. All reading is assigned in the sylibus. Gave class some questions to exams before the exam. Overall, Amazing experience.

HARD TESTS-4 chapt. from big bk., ea.chap. has 7 or 8 essay questions.(approx. 28 )He picks 4,you need to answer all 28 to know what he'll pick. 5 chapt. from small book. He picks 3. Plus 5 questions on keywords from notes. VERY GOOD TEACHER-HARD TESTS,have to memorize 50+ essays.NOT FOR THE WEAK!

Great Professor! Funny guy, class was very interesting. Very nice. Lots of reading and studying, tests are really hard. Tests based on 5 chapters, a book and class notes. Grades based on only three exams. I would take him again but do not take if you can't put in the study time. Its work to get a C.

he is an awesome guy. very funny and keeps u interested in what hes lecturing about. however his exams are extremly hard. u have to kno so much info its redic. and hes a hard grader so u need to know specifics. if u prepare in advance u will have no problem doing well in his class.

he is VERY FUNNY. it is easy to stay awake in his class and easy to attend ona regular basis. it is not easy to get an A. i studied hard and read every word of every chapter assigned and could not get above a B on the tests. He is a very hard grader, but a great teacher and person.

He's really a great teacher. Pretty funny at times. The class is really hard if you don't do what ya gotta do. Read everything, and be very prepared!

Funny guy who tries to make the lectures as interesting as they can possibly be. Tests are long, but he seems to curve at the end of the semester. I got low B's on every test and ended up with an A-, so most people seemed to get a higher grade than they thought.

Great lectures, he keeps class exciting. A lot of information though. Tests aren't easy "A's" but if you study it isn't that bad. Essay tests.

Really funny nice guy. Makes class interesting. Tough grader tho.

I love this man!! He looks like jesus and Col. Sanders mixed! LOL I hate history and he made it interesting for me. You def need to read and pay attention in class but you won't mind with all the jokes he cracks and all the examples he gives! Yeah Akim!!

He is very knowledgeable about the subject, and his lectures are interesting and entertaining. Very funny. There is a lot of reading in the course. He only grades based on 4 things: midterm, final, paper, participation. His tests are difficult. The class is much more advanced than a normal gen ed.

Toughest grader in the world. If you take him, expect to earn your A. Funny, weird and doesn't make you regret showing up for class. Lots of readings, but good ones.

He actually makes lectures entertaining and gave us lots of laughs. His exams, quizzes, and grading are another story though. Ex1: On the midterm, the As and Bs combined totaled less than 20 for a class of about 80. Ex2: You have to write 10 essays for the final and the questions come from a possible 46 that you had to read/prepare for.

I'm not very good at history and don't like it 2 much but he makes the class interesting. The grading, however, is very difficult. I felt very prepared for the tests/quizzes and i still only got a B+ in the class.If u have 2 take this class I do recommend him b/c he is entertaining. If u don't have to take this class... DONT TAKE IT unless u have 2

He doesn't hand out A's BUT his requirements are clear, his lectures cohesive, logical, and damn funny. His tangents are entertaining as hell. No, his classes aren't easy like high school classes (because it COLLEGE people!!), but he doesn't kill you either. I don't know why he's getting so much crap. He (and his tie collection) were great!!

Funny guy and very knowledgeable; however, can at times try too hard to be "hip" and can get alittle annoying...DO NOT mistake his carefree nonchalant attitude for him being an easy gader, tests are challenging and he is a tough grader...Reading is a MUST, and believe me people, theres alot of them...

I would say that he's got a really good personality and makes funny jokes sometimes but when it comes to the actual class his lectures are kind of boring and not really organized. Be sure to ask a lot of questions. However, if you are having trouble in the class, he's always available to help

If you are looking for an easy A, this is not the class for you. He's really entertaining and cynical, and a pretty good lecturer. He knows what he's talking about and he's always willing to help anyone who needs it. There were only 3 grades, all tests, and he graded them pretty hard. If you do the reading and pay attention, you should be good.

HILARIOUS. Very dry, sarcastic sense of humor. He can relate alot of discussions to everyday life and has a lot of fun with his lessons. But be warned his tests are DIFFICULT. Do not skimp out on studying, reading the same chapters twice is a must for these tests. He's very helpful if you have any questions though. Great teacher overall.

A little arrogant, a little gimmicky - otherwise effective.

Very funny professor. Tried his hardest to make his lectures interesting. There is A LOT of reading for this course, so if you can't commit don't take it. Overall, he is a great professor and I enjoyed the course.

An ok teacher, I had him for a lecture so I can see him being better in a small class. There is a lot of reading for him and its pretty important which is annoying because its boring. He did try and keep things interesting but i couldnt help falling asleep a couple times. I had to miss a test and he was accommodating so that was cool.

Class itself is hard. He is very funny though but if you are not into history-you will fall asleep at least 4 times in the semester. Just saying. Read the textbooks, be a good essay writer, and know the facts-youll do fine.

Funny guy. I'd take him again if for no other reason, he keeps things interesting. Makes jokes, drops some f bombs, and keeps the class from falling asleep. He's a bit of a hardass on grading the tests, but just write what he wants and you'll do fine. only 3 tests.

I took Dr. Reinhardt for 3 very different courses - HIST 300, an Hnrs Seminar on Nat. Ameri. and an UL Nat. Amer. course. He is by far one of the best professors I had during the entirety of my four years at Towson. If you are at all interested in History don't miss out on one of his classes. Hes funny, dresses well, and will benefit your exp. here

A lot of information. You will end up reading the textbook cover to cover. Lectures keep you interested the entire time. Test will be changing (he tried a new format that didnt work this time). 1 quiz, 1 oral exam, 2 exams (not cumulative). Be prepared to put in the work or you will not do well.

1 mini quiz, an oral, a mid term and final. He's pretty funny and interesting and his oral is easy. The only problem is the final which had 1 essay question from 10 chapters. 1 of 3 from a book. and 1 of 4 for lecture notes. there's so much information you'll have to remember but it's possible to do well if you do put in effort to prepare. Take it.

Tough grader, but great class. Willing to work with you on tests (we came up with our own final questions today) but expects a lot when he helps a lot.

I'm a history major & took Native American History with Reinhardt. His class is challenging, but lectures get you involved and thinking, and are quite interesting. If you like history, or Native Americans, I'd really suggest his class because he's very passionate about the subject.

This was my favorite class this semester. His tests are challengingbut if you pay attention & study, you'll do well. There are three tests that make up your grade (midterm, final, & 1 verbal test). He makes lectures engaging & is so funny. Love this teacher.

Top notch professor that helps you think and read critically about the subject. He's incredibly intelligent and brings modern humor into his lectures to make it easily relateable to the students.

he taught this class a new way this year, so he figured it out as he went... one midterm and a final, quizzes open note off lectures, no textbook just 7 books you have to read for the 2 tests, read and take notes on the books and youll do fine. if you need help or are struggling, go to him and he'll work with with you until you understand!

This class is difficult, attendance isn't mandatory but he gives surprise lecture quizzes every once in a while and if you are absent you receive a zero. You will learn a lot, way more than you ever wanted to. But it is all very fascinating. He's really funny, drops the f bomb and keeps class interesting. Overall a great professor but a hard grader

Hard class but a great teacher. History is never an easy class but he does a great job teaching it

For someone who doesn't like history, I loved this class. He makes lectures interesting and is really funny. He gives quizzes purely based on the in class lectures and all exams are based on books you read outside of class. Attendance is not required which is an extra bonus, but I don't recommend missing too many classes.

Great professor! He's very passionate about the subject and interesting and makes you want to listen. He also has a really good sense of humor and cracks jokes a lot. You read a lot for this class, I think we had to read 4 books just for the final, but if you have questions, he's very helpful. The quizzes are open note w/ easy criteria. Take him!!

Challenging class but worth it. Exams are based off of books read outside of class and the quizzes are based off of the lectures (which are very entertaining.) I learned so much and although the class was frustrating at some times, he was very helpful at office hours if I had questions on the books or needed help improving my quiz scores.

Great professor but he makes it clear that he's here to teach, not to make friends. He is a funny guy with dry humor and is very straight forward. HIs class is lecture based with quizzes on the lectures. He has several exams throughout the semester based on the books he assigns us to read. Easy class, but you CANNOT pass without reading the books.

Prof. Reinhardt's class was so interesting and fun. He moves very quickly through the lectures and gives maybe 6 quizzes for the lectures. The exams aren't too difficult as long as you have read the books (and there are a lot of them). One of them is an oral exam which was a little stressful. I looked forward to this class every week!

Reinhart is what you think of when you think of a history professor. He is incredibly passionate about US history and wants students to at least have a basic understanding. He gives out pop quizzes every other lecture so make sure you go to class. All tests were based on books you read outside of class, and one oral test. I would take him again

Reinhardt was a great Professor, his Hist146 class is very straight forward. He only has lectures and gives out 4 quizzes (50pts) each, a midterm and final as 100 pts each. Some of the Lectures can get boring but his humor always seems to make the class go by a little faster. Make sure to understand what he is looking for in his grading! & no EC

Easy-going and very knowledgable, no tolerance for any tech use- he still has a flip phone and won't use blackboard at all. It's all lectures and out of class reading, but not anything super complicated. Classes are interesting and the essay exams are pretty straight forward.

This class is easy and interesting. The professor has lectures that are engaging and will likely keep your attention. The professor is also funny and has a personality. Some critiques are: he does not like giving A's on papers, sometimes his technology fails.

No electronics, will kick you out. Doesn't use blackboard. No PowerPoints - will right few important things on the board but you write down things he says. Open note lecture quizzes every class. 4 exams on 4 books, rent the first one from UStore since not a lot of time to buy one. Passionate about history, very funny. I loved him and learned a lot.

Dr. Reinhardt's class was extremely interesting. The lectures were very clear and by the end of the class, there would be a small quiz based on the lecture. We had four exams and each one was based on a very short book. Dr. Reinhardt is always available by phone or email and responds very quickly. An amazing professor.

Excellent professor friendly and funny. Gives amazing well-prepared lectures. There will be a lot of grades which makes it easy to get a good grade. Exams are easy because they are related to the documents we had to read. He gives part of the questions that we had to answer and it made it much easier to look for answers in the documents.

Great lectures, really informative and interesting! He's really attentive and personable during classes. Lots of reading, I wish we could've slowed down sometimes with less sources. Really cool subject, and I'm glad I took the class.

One of my favorite professors. Truly knows a lot about history and makes the class enjoyable. Short assignments due almost every week, but they don't take very long. Additionally, he tries to be very helpful with the big paper requirement for HIST300 and has a lot of writing tips. Cons: Very old-fashioned. Does not use blackboard

Every exam and quiz is open note so it's really easy to pass as long as you take good notes. He's old school so no electronics of any kind during lecture, pen and paper only. Only had to buy one book and the rest was provided on blackboard. All the quizzes are writing a thesis and the exams are writing essays. I enjoyed his lectures, he is funny.

Professor Reinhardt's lectures are engaging and insightful, though the class can be challenging. The exams are based on assigned readings, so staying on top of the material is key. I found the Unstuck study app helpful for organizing my notes and studying effectively.

had a quiz every class based on readings and lectures for the first half of the semester which sucked sometimes, he was very funny which made up for it. do the readings and you'll be ok. pay attention and take notes and be friends with ppl around you so you can silently help each other during quizzes

The first have of the semester there is a quiz (writing thesis's) every class so you can't skip them. The second half is lectures and then 3 exams. The exams are based off of these lectures and you have to write essays on them so again, you can't really miss them unless you get notes from someone. He's funny and class was fun.

Lectures are long but he's pretty engaging. Even though attendance isn't required you have to show up for quizzes and if you don't attend lectures you won't know anything. Read the textbook and take good notes since quizzes are open notes. Professor Reinhardt was very nice about giving me an exam extension when I had a family emergency.
