I've also found writing as I'm reading helps me with comprehension. That might also help reading speed if you're looking for things to write down. If it's for a test, are there practice tests you can get ahold of, and then look up the answers in your books as a method of studying? Then you're covering some of the material, at least.
But I agree that a lot of profs just cover the material in class, so the reading is superfluous. The only time that hasn't been the case is in smaller classes (<20) where we actually really do discuss the readings.
