a great professor. he obviously likes what he does and he does it extremely well. you can tell he cares about his students. i only wished he taught every class i had. instructors like him are one in a million.

great teacher, i enjoyed attending his class. he was very clear with his explanations, you can tell the he is passionate about his work!

Not an easy class, but he sure does blow up a lot of stuff.

Glenn made chemistry a little more interesting, and more accessible for people who aren't into chemistry (ie most bio majors).

BEST TEACHER EVER

i remember liking millhauser, but now i can't remember why.

I barely passed AP Chem in high school and got a 1 on my exam. I had not idea what I was going into this year, but now I'm at the top of my class! Great lecturer and makes chemistry interesting, even if you're not into it! I hated chem; now it's my favorite class.

He is a cool guy, felt like i learned more in the sections though, seems really nice, but I was bored in most of his classe, except when he did his cool little expirments!

Millhauser legitimately wants you to learn the material and is genuinely concerned with you understanding of the curriculum. He expects you to be on top of the hw and readings, but this is already assumed. Overall, he explains things with great clarity!

He's is great professor. His lectures are always clear and he does not rush at all. His in class demonstrations and the YouTube videos really made Chemistry interesting. The 2 midterms were easy were easy but his final was hard. I highly recommend him.

The online homework is manageable and very helpful. Midterms are not that bad. The final was hard, but only because I didn't study as much as I should have. Thankfully, he curved all the tests.

Glenn is a great teacher I thought. He is pretty enthusiastic and knew what he was talking about. Definably a professor you won't be upset with. I got a D on my first two mid terms, and an A on the final and still manged to get a B in the class.

Knows material very well and does a good job of explaining and communicating it. The online homework seemed like good preparation for the two midterms and final which were all pretty reasonable with proper preparation.

He is a great professor and obviously knows what he is talking about. He is also very funny during lecture especially when learning difficult material which really helps relax the class. He is also very approachable and helpful after class if you have any questions. I ran into him the other day and he was extremely nice and polite.

Do not take for GE, take Astro 6. Hw online weekly, cheaper to buy from website. Hw is harder than midterms/final. Teacher is passionate and serious, but also enjoyable. Problems given to study for midterms/finals are EXACTLY whats on tests! Final's only on last 2 chapters.

Good teacher. Knew his materials and came prepared. Demonstrated some cool chem stuff in class with reactions and stuff. Very friendly/nice. Okayish midterms and finals. Just read and completely understand the material and you'll be fine

Milhauser for Chem1A was amazing. He showed interest in Chemistry and certainly knowledge, and best of all he explained everything with great clarity. Fair professor. Curved the final 5 problems, which was significant since it was only out of 35 problems.

This guy gives us a pratice midterm that has nothing to do with the actual midterm.. Thats a no-no in college!

Clear lecturer who clearly knows his material. However, last midterm was in no way shape or form similar to either the homework or past midterms. Aside from that, he' s a great teacher who is willing to spend extra time explaining difficult concepts

Reading before the lecture helps tons. Nothing he gives you is impossible, you just have to spend time on it. He is really funny and I wish I had gone to his office hours because he really wants his students to pass. Glenn does some really cool demonstrations for the class too. You can use a cheat sheet on the midterms as well.

Professor Millhauser by far is a Great Professor, he really has a passion for what he does. I highly recommend going to his office hours to get help on homework or to get your questions answered he is extremely willing to help.His midterms are fair as long as you STUDY! And they are multiple choice. Take Chem 1A with Millhauser

Passionate about chemistry, has a sense of humor, and respectful towards his students. Lectures are interesting and his exams are pretty straight forward. The practice exams are pretty similar to the real ones.

Great teacher! Clear in class and very helpful during office hours. Allows a cheat during tests, which is very helpful. As long as you know the concepts and do a few extra problems from the textbook, you can get a high A.

Really good professor. He is funny and makes his lectures interesting. He really wants his students to learn the material and do well. First practice midterm was almost identical to the real thing, while the second one was nothing like it. He also lets you have cheat sheets on the midterms and final.

good at explaining material, tests were very fair. i was taking another upper div chem class & lab at the same time as his class & as such couldn't devote as much atn to the class as needed. passed alright but was close to the next highest grade. emailed him about it & at first he was nice but then replied with intent to insult me.

He is a very good teacher and explains very well. Tests were multiple choice and fair, he allowed a formula sheet which was great

Fantastic professor. Fantastic human being on the side, too. He's such an approachable guy - hilarious, helpful, and kind. If you can, do yourself a favor and TAKE THIS CLASS. It'll be the hardest part of your quarter probably maybe I dunno 'bout you geniuses, but. Take this class. You learn so, so much. Isn't that the point of this whole thing?

Read the book and he says to read it, go to lecture, and do your homework on time. You'll do fine. He's a great professor.

If you're really interested in enjoy chemistry, Millhauser is the professor to choose! He is absolutely passionate about his subject, which could be very inspirational to the chemistry enthusiast. If you're just trying to bs your way through chemistry (prereq or ge) choose another professor, his homework can be challenging from time to time!

Great overall professor! Attend class and discussion and you'll be just fine! He is extremely knowledgable and enthusiastic about the subject which is very helpful.

Glenn was a good teacher but his notes were a bit unorganized. His tests were really hard because they were multiple choice 20-25 HARD questions with an hour time limit and no partial credit (Randa's class had this). I tried really hard in this class and still got a C. I got D's on every test, though.. he does curve in the end, which is nice.

I really enjoyed his class, the tests were tough, but they are manageable.

#TRILLHAUSER# ALSO DOES MAGIC

Glenn is a great guy and a really great teacher. He expects a lot from his students so you are going to have to work for your grade. He is very passionate about chem. His demos were the best and he always let class out early. He responds quickly to emails. I worked pretty hard in this class and I took AP Chem in high school and I still got a B.

Great teacher, cares for his students. Take his advice, go to class, read the book, it helps!! Test are okay, can be a bit long, but he makes review questions so you know what is on the test and he's specific on what will be on the exams.

He's a great teacher, makes sure the entire class understands a subject before moving on. Sometimes moves a little fast in class, but open to slowing down. Study for tests and make sure to make a good cheat sheet! Always very helpful and approachable.

A good chemistry professor and enjoys what he lectures. Do not be late and do not leave early from any of his lectures or he will call you out on it. More strict than what I'm used to and if you have your phone out or your sleeping, you will be called out. His exams are hard but chem is hard. Be prepared to read and make sue to attend office hours.

Millhauser was a wonderful teacher that loves chem! He is also very dad-funny, but serious at the same time. His writing may be hard to read sometimes, but his lectures are full of info

One of my favorite professors at UCSC so far. His passion for chemistry is contagious. He likes to focus on the concepts behind chemical calculations, which I enjoyed. He will provide a lot of visual aid, which makes chemistry easier for my mind to wrap around. Additionally, he will relate chemistry to real-life events (i.e. Flint water crisis).

Great professor! He is very clear in his lectures and explains things very well. His office hours are also very useful if you are struggling to understand a concept. He's not the easiest professor, but if you want to get a good grasp on the material, I would recommend him.

Millhauser is really helpful and he wants his students to succeed. While some professors like giving hard tests, Millhauser gives tests that are reasonable. If you study hard, you'll do well. If you don't, you won't.

Glenn is an awesome prof. He's a little strict and he pushes you hard, but he really loves what he teaches and he makes a point of teaching well; he always gave the best explainarion for the material that I could find anywhere. I've also never had a professor be so prompt with returning grades on tests -- he works just as hard as he expects you to.

Professor Millhauser is great at simplifying complex concepts! He gives us plenty of examples relevant to biology, environmental science and current events. Chem 1B is a fun class, but you need to actively read the textbook if you want to understand the material. Tests are similar to the hw and practice, so understand the problems!

Glenn is thoughtful, intelligent and a great lecturer. He is very helpful and fun in office hours. Get to know him. He does not post notes online so go to every lecture. Favorite chem professor at UCSC!

My favorite chem professor so far!! He always had a super positive attitude in class and is great at explaining things. He's not a super easy teacher but he's a great one!

Make sure you go to class, he doesn't post his lectures on webcast and all the major topics are covered on his midterms. He doesn't curve tests, or overall grades at the end of the quarter so you actually need to do well in the class to pass. Super cool guy, is super fair on his tests and studying material.

Glenn's lectures aren't bland at all because of his jokes. He's just a funny guy. This class was pretty easy. The second midterm on orbitals was a bit harder than the final. Study the practice sheets, they were previous midterms, although there were a couple of questions that weren't exactly the same as the practice. GT CLASS. U WILL FALL BEHIND.

He tries to be much more engaging with this class, and he brought in things like models and had demonstrations. As for the exams, I thought they were quite straightforward, and pretty fair. Even though I didn't study for this class at all, I still did decent. Pay attention in class and put the formulas in your cheat sheet, and you will do fine.

good teacher, funny guy. He seems super anal retentive at first but he just respects learning and wld like respect back. Taught what was in 1A a little too so you could take 1B first.... His tests made sense too!

Amazing and detailed lectures. Shows examples during class to give you a better understanding of what he's teaching. Two midterms and one final. WebAssign homework due every Friday night (11:59 PM).

I love Glen he was great teacher. He is very kind and does care if you pass or fail. If you go to your discussions sessions and the review sessions you'll be fine.

He was great! Very understanding and really cares if you pass or fail. Gives great real-life examples in lecture. As long as you go to lecture you will pass.

Took his class during rona season and it was really good. Exams were fair and straightforward, no curveballs. If you understand the homework and lectures, you'll do fine. You can tell he's passionate about chem from his lectures. He made the final optional and shows that he cares about his students.

I took this course online during COVID-19. The lectures were online from 2018 but were really informational and questions he goes over relate directly to exams. Prof and TAs are great at responding in section and outside of class. Would totally recommend, especially for office hours. Final was also made optional and could only improve our grade.

This class is definitely a rough one to take remotely, but Prof Millhauser did an amazing job. Him and his TAs were by far the most helpful of all my courses. Lectures were engaging, and the exams accurately reflected the homework assignments.

I took this class remotely, and it was a very pleasant experience. All of the test questions were reasonable, and WebAssign was very easy to use once you get the hang of it. Millhauser was very responsive to any attempt of communication, whether that be through e-mail, office hours, or canvas. I found the lectures to be unnecessary.

Great lectures that are clear and direct. Reinforces complex ideas in an easy manner. The homework is fine, just long, and typing in the answers on Webassign is a pain in the ass. I don't like chem, and I still don't. Had to take one course due to my major. If you have to do one chem course, I suggest this class.
