Comment:
Taught using case studies and recorded interviews & lectures. Learned lots on different topics, but we did not learn anything in detail. Wish he assigned written assignments to guide us through how to create annuals reports, executive summaries, etc. Great interview subjects and interesting (but LONG) case studies. Wish I could have learned more!

Comment:
The Ethics class was very interesting. The topics were very interesting. Professor Souder is very intelligent and his material is challenging. If you work hard, you will be paid with a good grade in his class. The only complaint is that is seems if you don't agree with his perspective your grade will suffer. Overall, great material, difficult.

Comment:
I love taking classes with him because I learn so much. A bunch of students don't like him because he actually expects you to do work and he is thorough and detail-oriented. I found him very communicative and kind. He has a very dry sense of humor which I loved. Wish there were more classes I could take with him.

He expects students to be responsible adults. As a non-tenure track prof, he certainly puts a lot of work into his courses. It raises the bar for his students.

Comment:
What I really liked about Dr. Souder was the fact that I always knew what was expected of me. He made it very clear what he expected of us, which is something not a lot of professors do. He knows his stuff too.

A nice guy, knows what he's talking about. He expects you to read the material, which isn't alot, and sometimes give quizzes on it. No tests, only papers, which if you put a decent ammount of work into and show improvement throughout the course you will get a good grade.

Comment:
Dr. Souder is far too scrutinizing and offers no guidance whatsoever other than his syllabus. He stares at the class like we are stupid and has no rapport with us. As a professor, he should at least try to consider as intelligent members of the human race, not demeaning us to little non-personalities who are graded in his little unforgiving system.

He may teach hard classes, but if you read your assignments, participate, and go to class, you will get an "A". It may not be the funnest class ever, but Dr. Souder is a great professor

Comment:
Souder assigns readings and expects students to be able to discuss them. He also assigns papers and expects students to earn their grades. Therefore, he's bound to be unpopular with slackers, but if you're in college because you want to learn, then you'll like Souder. A terrific experience.
