He is pretty enthusiastic about chemistry--does a good amount of demos. But near the end of the quarter he sped through the material and it got harder to keep up. He cares about his students so that is a plus.

Very boring lectures, hard to comprehend. Only passed the class because of CLAS tutoring. Tests were easy.

Standerson will email you after every quiz and exam and apologize for putting up the wrong grade on gauchospace. But honestly, he was an extremely fair grader and for a class meant to weed out pre-bio majors, he really tries to help out your grade. Do the text book problems!

He's a nice fella. Makes a few mistakes but he's a good professor. He throws in a few jokes here and there. Didn't use the iCLicker too much and that's unfortunate because I like using those. His overall class was semi difficult. That was just me because I suck at chem.

Personally enjoyed his lectures and demonstrations; Has a sweet old sense of humor; A bit hard to stay awake in his 8am class; His sends out daily emails giving hmwk and advice to prepare for lecture (SUPER HELPFUL!); Quizzes, midterms & finals were fair and mostly from textbook hmwk; Has an extra credit question on all exams!

Loves to help. Go to his office hours. If you do better on your final than you did on your midterms, he counts your final for 80% of your grade instead of 40%. Totally saved my grade. Nice, caring, passionate about Chem. Makes mistakes here and there but they're minimal and really? No one's perfect. Take him if you're given the chance!
