Such a sweet old man. Hes funny and knowlegable and accepts questions but he mostly lectures all class with the help of images on a PowerPoint and handouts.

Would take points off for small details but big concepts he usually liked. He either loved you or hated you. Final and midterm extremely hard but it is take home and you can take it as many times as you want.

no textbook. no extra credit. tough tests. interesting power point presentations with additional information pertaining to the lecture. No notes attached to power point except for a handout with basic line drawings of figures from various periods. The information is invaluable yet extremely confusing to follow with out a formal "guide".

There is no textbook so notes are crucial. You think the class is going to be easy with only tests, but they are really hard, even if you don't miss class and study. He warns you how hard his tests are on the first day. and he is right! Avg in class is C+. I suggest getting a tutor or finding friends to help you study.

Comment:
He's such a nice guy, but because he's so smart and experienced he expects a lot from his students. It's a lot of work that's pretty unrelated to the fashion industry. He's very helpful if you go to him for office hours though.

This was one of the best classes that the fashion program has to offer. You know how the fashion faculty sits at the black table and talks, well it was very similar to that. Interesting debates and conversations. One of the few encouraging classes, makes me look forward to fashion. he is the kindest teacher, and best person to lead the conversation

Comment:
I absolutely love Richard Kramer. He is such a kind hearted person. But, this class is a total bore. I went home and took a nap after every class. I suggest getting a tutor right away or finding friends to help you study. There is no textbook for this class so notes are crucial. The tests are hard but they are reasonable if you study.

I have him for History of Costume now and I am a Psych major. VERY interesting class, very charming man :) The tests are hard, but he pretty much spells it all out for you in class. Just take good notes and study the handouts thoroughly with flashcards..so far I have an A

i had him for CAD 1 (fash 245), and it was horrible! i got a terrible grade and he was very confusing and unhelpful....THEN i had him for history of costume and it was a complete turn around! he was so passionate and funny, he was extremely knowledgeable about the subject and made it a lot of fun, i was sad to leave the class.

Comment:
I had Kramer for CAD 1. The class itself was about 2 hours long, and sitting on the computer the whole time is boring. Overall, he's pretty nice. But if you're no into what you're doing or if you're bad at it he wont like you. He really plays favorites. Don't skip a lot, its really easy to get behind in this class.

His class was interesting and during the first week of school I thought he would be one of my favorite teachers - I was wrong. He offered no standard for any assignments. I never missed class, I completed my homework, got extra help when I needed it, I helped the other kids in class and I still ended the semester with a B-. He played favorites.

Awesome teacher, great class. You don't need to be a fashion major to do well in this class. He presents things very clearly and is open for discussion. If you have an interest in costume, definetly take the class.
