Comment:
I have been a graduate for many years, but I still remember Dr. Luther as one of the best professors I have ever had. He is passionate, has unsurpassed command of the subject matter, is exceedingly fair and is uncharacteristically politically neutral in his teaching. I have been very successful because he helped me learn how to think critically.

Comment:
One of the best Political Science professors. He is very clear in his assignments and lectures, and he makes the topic interesting. All his tests were essay format but he gave us a guide in what he was looking for. I would take many more classes with him if I could. His class does require studying so it's not the easiest A, but it can be done.

Comment:
I have taken 6 classes with him and I love Dr. Luther but I would never recommend taking him if you are not a political science or philosophy major. His classes are hard but you will learn a lot. To be successful in his class you have to go to his office and tell him your goal is to get an A and take good notes in lectures.

Not a good professor at all. He knows what he is talking about but can't explain it to others. Lectures are long and dry. Not helpful when it comes to explaining or expounding on topics when confused. Often goes off topic. Take someone else!!!

This professor is very boring and does not stay on topic during lectures. Tests are somewhat difficult you will need to study. I do not recommend him at all.

Very Good prof. He knows his subject thoroughly and is a great lecturer, but requires loads of reading and writing. Extremely friendly and supportive to his students a true professional. Without question, one of the best Profs at CBU.

Luther is the most insightful and greatest professor I've had throughout my college experience. He is very intelligent and knows a wide range of topics from philosophy to political science. I really enjoy his classes, they're my favorite. I hope to have more classes with Dr. Luther in the future.

He was an amazing teacher. He does not baby anyone in the class but treated us like the adults we are. Notes are very important but can be found in book too. his writing is horrible but easy to adjust to. Overall one of the best in the department. I will for sure be taking more of his classes.

I liked this class. He is not an easy teacher, but he is a good teacher. The lectures are interesting and he interacts with the students during them. The tests are very challenging essay's. You must learn retain a lot of info to do well on the tests. If you want to be challenged, take Luther.

I rated Dr. Luther a 5 on everything because he is truly the best professor I have ever known. He is not easy in the sense that you don't have to show up or study and you can still ace the class. However, he is easy in the sense that if you are a diligen

This man is amazing. He is passionate and full of knowledge on a variety of subjects from American Government to Hegelian philosophy. Plus he looks like a beast when he grows his beard out.

I liked his class, he is very nice and he will help you out. His Exams are hard but you just need to study. And on the rumor about him giving out only 1 or 2 100% through out his teaching is not true, i had at least 3 in my class that got 100...

Good luck trying to make sense out his writing and scattered thoughts with his lectures that always lead to tangents and getting out of class 5 minutes late on average.

a great teacher is one whose presence and character earns the respect of their students, causing them to do their best so as to not lose the teacher's respect. i started off caring what HE thought and ended up caring for its own sake. students intersted in a real college class should take one of his

Dr. Luther pushes you towards excellence. He can bring out qualities in yourself that you never knew existed. I was his TA for a semester and learned so much from him. The principles he taught me stick with me to this day.
