hard to keep up with because he's the most unorganized prof ever!!! he looses everyones work and then tells you that you did not hand it in. other than that the class is very interesting. if you do all your work and keep up with him, you will be okay.

I took his Western Civ winter course, and it was possibly the easiest class I've ever taken. There were around 12 assignments that were emailed to you with no due dates, no essays and one test-the final. Final was open book and short answers. At the end of the course you had to mail him your assignments. I would absolutely recommend him for winter.

He is a good professor, and he keep the class entertaining. He will give you take home exam, as well you need to read. If you do well in his exam, and participate in class, you can pass his class.

HE knows what he's talking about, but sometimes the students dont! He practically mumbles everything. He is so unorganized; not only with assignments, but with the syllabus itself! He will keep you awake. Really entertaining, sometimes rude and profane. But honestly, I did not learn anything.

I took his online course. If youre good at reading comprehension, youll get an A. no due dates. you dont have to take the final. we were supposed to have over 20 assignments, we had 8. very unorganized. i could have gotten an A in 5th grade. Took this course to get my history requirement knocked out of the way.

I took his class 2 times. One time I passed his class with a B, and another time I passed with a B. He knows what he is doing. He is funny. He give you open book test, and close book test. If you want to get a good grade, I say take his class. He is helpful. Trust Me.

Very unorganized. you don't have to do anything. Take your final add 100 and divide by 2, and that is your final grade. Very easy but be very careful.

Meaders is the man. Simple as that. Very unorganized, though. Assigns work but then won't collect it. Lot of take home tests and open book exams, let our class use or cell phones and laptops during our first test. Should be a crime how easy this course is. Highly suggest taking him.

gives students a laid back environment. didnt get to all the books. lots of movies. "take home part" of the exam was a bit much considering he expected us to remember facts thrown at us during movies. final is half the take home. couldnt tell you what i didnt turn in & neither could he. ive finished the final for a few weeks now& dont have a grade.

From a history major do not take him. He will make it the most stressful semester of your life. tons of time consuming and pointless assignments, and videos that are and hour each. He loses and/or doesnt grade any of your work. He is unclear, unhelpful, and the worst teacher I have ever had hands down. He should not be a professor

Meaders is the easiest teacher you will ever take. yes he miss places your work but as long as you save it on your computer you will be good. attendance isn't mandatory. alot of take home test that are the same as the test in class. i never used the books. and still passed with a b+.

Honestly, the least helpful and most unprofessional "Yale-graduate" professor I have ever had the displeasure of having. He curses, mumbles, chooses favorites, RARELY adequately reviews before quizzes, uses imprecise language on quizzes and the final, and asks questions on topics we didn't cover. His class is where GPA's go to die. Avoid!

Tons of tests and hw that aren't even graded. Gives the same test multiple times. gives people who don't deserve a good grade, a good grade. Loses everything, keep 3 extra copies. Handed in a long test and found out everyone in the class got 100s, he didn't even OPEN my test and read ANY of it. I worked too hard in a class where he doesn't care.-_-

Be ready to watch a lot of movies! I thought I would hate the class but I was actually really interested in it. He is really unorganized so keep a copy of any work you hand into him cause you will have to give it to him again or go into his messy office and help him find it SMH! I wouldn't take him again but this class was easy

Show up to class, watch a movie which you can find on youtube, answer 20-30 questions about the movie(these are your notes). Eventually he may assign 1 or 2 assignments which are annoying. A few tests which he either doesn't grade or gives a random grade. The final he let us have open notes, open books, and we could use our cell phones.

All tests are open book. Classes are about 30 minutes long then he lets you leave. Losses almost everyone's papers but then gives you an A if he cant find it. He is extremely funny, isnt very clear on assignments, watch movies during classes, maybe one or two assignments the whole semester. DEF TAKE HIM!
