I took him for Cosmetic Science and he was the BEST! He joked around with us and taught us the science behind making beauty products and then we actually made them ourselves. He created a really fun and relaxed environment. My only complaint is that the class wasn't long enough!

Todd Squires is a gem of a man. If every professor was like him, college would be so much fun. He genuinely cares so much about his students and this class is so much fun. Super easy, just show up and make the products and just don't cause an accident and you'll pass. 10/10 would take again, would recommend it, Todd is the absolute best

This class was very chill and only met the first five weeks of the quarter. There wasn't too much teaching and a majority of the class time was spent making various cosmetic products. As long as you show up and do the experiments, it's an easy pass.

My goat Todd Squires strikes again. I think he does a good job maintaining professionalism and reminding us of the importance of a good lab report.

Hes a little disorganized, but the material is easy enough it doesn't mater. One of many GOATs in the ChemE department.

Definitely one of the best and most captivating professors in chemical engineering. Professor Squires does a good job covering all the topics while keeping class moral high.
