Binding sqldatareader to gridview c#

I am creating an application for a asp.net class that I am taking. One of the pages in the application needs to allow a user to search for a specific student via last name or user ID. When the student is found the page should display the students data and his/her class schedule.

I have gotten everything to work except for the class schedule. The approach I have taken (as we learned in class) was to get the query results via the SqlDataReader and bind it to a GridView. This is done in showStudentSchedule().

The query in this function returns the correct results when I test it against the DB I created, but the grid view displaying a students schedule doesn't show up on the page.

Try this out:

 SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection();
 connection.ConnectionString = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
 SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(sqlSelectFindUserByName);

 connection.Open();
 command.Connection = connection;
 SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection);
 GridView1.DataSource = reader;
 GridView1.DataBind();
