Comments:BL 3305 - Dr. Reid is easily a top 3 professor at this entire university. He is the most caring, intentional, and helpful man I have ever met. He learns everyone's name and he will greet you and say hi whenever he runs into you. Blaw is going to be a difficult class no matter who you take since there is so much material and it's so dense, but Reid makes it the most manageable. Most of your grade is in exams so be sure to go to his review sessions (his wife bakes cookies if you show up) and really focus on reading the textbooks and completing the chapter problems. I never once opened the textbook or did the problems outside of class and got a B, but I'm sure if I did I probably would have ended with an A or A- but you can get by without doing it if your goal is just to pass. I cannot recommend Dr. Reid enough, you have to take him.  - Grade In Class:B

Comments:3301 - He's one of the best professors at Baylor. Can get someone like me who knows nothing about law and consider becoming a lawyer because of how much he made it make sense. Kindest human I've ever met. Even after having taken him I still visit him often to talk. This man could be in an Ivy League school but i'm just glad he's here at Baylor  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:BL 3305 - Reid is the sweetest human to ever exist. I went to his office hours on several occasions just to say hello and blab about my life. He is so kind and gives everyone gifts on the last day of class to get us through finals. The workload is a lot just because the material is so dense, but David made it worth it!!! TAKE DAVID REID!!  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:BLAW - THE BEST PROFESSOR AT BAYLOR. My favorite professor at Baylor in my 4 years. Super helpful and very friendly, super smart, and always willing to help. Course isn't too fast and he makes sure you understand everything before moving on. The tests are also super fair and not over the top or trying to trick you.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:3305 - TAKE HIM! He is the best business law professor, maybe the best business professor. I look forward to him 8 AM class every tuesday and thursday morning. That's how you know he is good.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:BL 3305 - The nicest professor you’ll ever meet, point blank. I took this class at 8am and this man would make it a point to greet everyone that walked in with a smile and a good morning, without fail. A normal class is usually a lecture, but it’s hard to even call it that with how lively and upbeat he is. He takes very complex legal issues and elements and does a great job to break them down to help them stick, whether it be through visual examples or all kinds of fun and helpful acronyms. He also is great about using examples from his own life so that we can relate better to the legal principles at hand. Structure wise, there usually isn’t any required homework that you have to submit, but if you hope to succeed, there is work to be done. This class heavily emphasizes working before class to be better prepared for the application questions that happen in class. He posts a module with clear instructions for what to do, which usually involves reading a certain chapter of the online textbook, completing study guide questions for that chapter, and most likely at least wrestling with chapter problems if they were assigned. Between the textbook and his Canvas files, he offers pretty much every resource you could ever need, as each chapter has a page of notes with all the legal specifics you need to know and a study guide with lots of good practice questions. There is usually an online quiz every other week over the chapter problems, but it’s meant to be a grade booster because you talk through the answers in class the day the quiz is due and you can take it multiple times. There are 3 midterms which are worth 20% each and the final is worth 25%. The tests can certainly be tough, just due to how many different small legal elements there are to remember for each chapter, but are very doable. They are multiple choice and usually ask you to pick the best option when applied to a hypothetical situation or set of facts. There are also 2 extra credit opportunities that can get you 2% added to your final grade. One of them is going to a legal website and writing 4 different page summaries of a specific topic and the other is listening to an oral argument of a Supreme Court case of your choosing and summarizing it in 4 pages. Overall, this class can be difficult just due to the volume of unfamiliar terms and memorization required, but I couldn’t recommend Reid enough because of how helpful he is.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:BL 3305 - HE IS AMAZING AND YOU NEED TO TAKE HIM! He makes the course material interesting and engaging. While at times some of the material may be difficult, he helps as much as he can. He calls his office hours, "student hours" and will find time to meet with you. Regarding classwork... He gives you multiple tries on quizzes so you should get 100% every time and for tests as long as you know the terms, definitions, and class examples you will succeed! He genuinely cares for all of his students and you will not regret taking him!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:BL 3305 - TAKE HIS CLASS FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING GOOD. The sweetest professor at Baylor, I do not give reviews for professors but Reid deserves one for how wonderful he is. Genuinely cares about his students and will do anything to help them. Most approachable professor I have ever had and I will even pop into his office hours now just to catch up. He would bring homemade cookies to review sessions and gave us goodie bags towards the end of the semester just because. The class is hard, don't get me wrong, but everyone I knew wanted to do well simply because he was teaching the class. There isn't a lot of homework involved, but everything he assigns (graded or not) is super helpful because law is not easy. Reid is kindest professor I have ever had, and made learning law actually enjoyable.  - Grade In Class:B+

Comments:3305 - This class is hard. But Dr. Reid is such a caring and nice individual that he makes you want to try and succeed. He learned everyones name (even with a large classroom), and gave us homemade cookies and great dad jokes. The tests are the bulk of the grade, make sure to go to his review sessions and study the chapter problems.  - Grade In Class:B

Comments:BL3305 - Dr. Reid is THE BEST professor I've ever had at Baylor. Take him! He's very strong in his faith and really cares about being a good teacher. He has the unique talent of explaining Business Law in a way that is palatable. Best professor.  - Grade In Class:B

Comments:BL 3305 - Great guy and great teacher. Class is structured so that you have every chance to succeed. As long as you know his notes and review the homework problems you'll have no problem in this class.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:BL3305 - Professor Reid wants to help you and is willing to do whatever is necessary to help. He has extended his office hours before, offers exam prep sessions, and explains the content as crystal clear as possible. I recommend taking him if possible. The class itself can be difficult, it is a lot to take in, so having Reid as your professor helps make it manageable.  - Grade In Class:B

Comments:3305 - He is my favorite professor that I have had at Baylor. He just cares about us "learning" and wants to see us walk out everyday going in the right direction. This class is one that you will need to give time to, the tests have a lot of concepts and chapters on them. His teaching style is great, he teaches through application and examples to help you remember the terms and concepts with them. This is a huge benefit for the tests because they are 100% application based, literally 3-4 sentences for every question but if you listen to him in class this will help you. I love Reid though! He is actually amazing! PLEASE TAKE HIM!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:business law - Professor Reid is one of the nicest professors I have ever met. He genuinely cares about his students and their success, as well as how they are doing outside of class. However, Business Law is a very hard class. It is a lot of work and you need to stay on top of it. Professor Reid will give you his own notes over the chapters, and that is what you need to know for his exams. If you attend class, pay attention, and know the material he covers, you will do well in his class. Take professor Reid if you can!  - Grade In Class:B

Date: 2022-05-22

Comments:3305 - Take Reid if you can! He breaks down difficult concepts and makes it easy to understand. He is always available to help so definitely take advantage of his office hours and exam review sessions. There were 3 multiple choice exams (each covering about 10 chapters) and one cumulative final. It is important to print out the class notes and study them to do well on the exams. Exams are not hard if you study and know the concepts well. Homework includes a few quizzes and scenario based questions from the textbook. Overall, this was a great class and the material covered was very interesting. Reid is one of the best professors in the business school so don't be afraid of this class!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:BLAW 3305 - PLEASE TAKE PROFESSOR REID. He is one of my favorite professors I've ever had. I had b-law at 8am, which is so unfortunate, but he made me want to come to class every day. He teaches in a way that will help you remember the content forever and he tries to make it as interesting as possible. The tests are pretty difficult but if you study in advance you should be fine. He provides notes and study guides for each chapter, and the only "homework" is turning in some chapter problems that we go over in class every week.  - Grade In Class:C+

Comments:BL 3305 - Dr.Reid is the most caring professor in the Business School. He simplifies what can be an extremely confusing topic into it's most basic form and teaches you how to apply the concepts from the ground up. I typically don't remember any information from past courses after the semester is over, but I have a feeling that I will for BLAW simply because Dr.Reid showed me how to apply it into real life concepts. If you can TAKE REID, you will not regret it.  - Grade In Class:A

Date: 2021-12-21

Comments:BL 3305 - No one cares about his students more than Reid. The most kind, caring, and helpful professor I have ever taken in my life. He explains what can be a very difficult subject for students to understand in a direct and concise way, making it very manageable to make an A if you simply review his notes on Canvas a few days before every test. I seriously cannot recommend this man enough, I will literally miss him so much! Also he tells the best dad jokes  - Grade In Class:A

Date: 2021-05-01

Comments:Blaw - Professor Reid is by far the best professor in the business school. NO professor cares more about his students than Reid. Each test gets progressively more hard, ending in a cumulative final so be sure to do well on the first test. I strictly studied the in class notes ONLY and made A's on every test but if you need extra practice the study guides can be helpful. He gives you 2 extra credit opportunities which are serious grade savers as they add 2 extra points to your FINAL GRADE. Take Reid, go to class, pay attention, you'll ace the course!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:BUS3305 - Professor Reid is a great teacher. I have never had a professor that cares about his students more than Reid does. I can tell that he wants to be the best professor he can be and he genuinely wants everyone in the class to understand the material and make a good grade. The class material itself can be kind of boring, and there is a lot of information, but he does a great job of explaining it and putting it a way that we can really understand it. The tests are not hard, I never took notes and just studied for 4-5 hours the day before each and made an A on all of them. He occasionally assigns homework, and they are easy grade boosters. DON'T BUY OR READ THE BOOK. He tells you that you need to, but trust me, you don't. Everything on the test comes from the notes he puts on Canvas and I think reading the book would have just complicated things and confused me. There is way too much information to sift through. Just study the notes and the study guides and you will do great in this class.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:BL 3305 - Professor Reid is one of the better teachers I've had at Baylor. He genuinely cares about his students and does everything he can to help you understand the material. His lectures are very interesting and he truly is very interesting to listen to. His tests are not easy, you will have to study a lot but that's just any business law class. I'd take him over the higher rated professors. I've heard much better things about him than anyone else.  - Grade In Class:B

Date: 2019-04-16

Comments:3305 - Take Reid if you can! He is truly the nicest professor that I've had at Baylor and cares so much about his students. I am really not sure why people gave low ratings for workload because there is basically no workload except for studying for exams. Just pay attention in class and review the notes and study guides for the exams and an A is completely doable. He's for sure the best BLAW professor!  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:3305 - He is the best BLaw teacher!!! He's the sweetest professor ever, and he really wants to see you succeed. He's always available, and he even encourages you to call him on his cell phone at any hour of the night if you're having trouble with something while studying for his test. Seriously, the nicest guy ever. Although BLaw covers a lot of material, he makes the tests so straight-forward. He gives chapter outlines & study guides, which is ALL you need to study for the tests. I've made As on both tests so far without even reading anything from the book. Seriously just study the chapter notes & some of his test questions are copied from the study guides.  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:3305 - Mr. Reid is such a kind man who desperately wants you to succeed! While is lectures can sometimes be painfully boring, I think he is probably one of the better BLAW professors to take. Buy the book for the chapter problems but do. not. read. it. I promise you can get an A on his tests if you thoughtfully read the chapter outlines and do the study guides he provides.There's simply too much information in the book and if it's not in the chapter outline it will not be on the test. At least a few test questions come straight from the study guides so definitely memorize those if you can. The final isn't awful and uses a lot of old test questions (so go back a review your old tests before).  - Grade In Class:A

Comments:3305 - Let me be the first to rate Dr. Reid. He’s amazing. He knows how to teach, gives examples all the time, always offers to help, and he’s overall the nicest professor at Baylor. It’s his first year, so he is follow Professor Agee’s syllabus. Blaw is hard but he makes it easy. There are 3 tests and a final. There are also readings everyday, work out problems, and a couple HW assignments. It’s a lot of information that they have to pile into one semester so beware the first test is over 8 chapters, the second over 9, and the last over 10 (final is cumulative). With that being said, I’ve never met a professor who is so willing to help, provide more resources than what we deserve, provide extra credit opportunities, and help you through one of the hardest classes in the business school. I highly recommend taking him!!  - Grade In Class:B+
