What a nice guy. He's like papa smurf and santa. *note: he always wears sandals and socks, even in the winter.

Awesome teacher! Hands out objectives he is going to cover and worksheets. Study the work sheets and should do fine on the test. Take Anderson for Chem 204

When I look back on it I am very glad that I took Dr. Anderson. He isn't the easiest Chemistry teacher, but he does teach well. If you like examples, this is the teacher for you!

Seriously comical guy without meaning to be. Such a Santa! Do his worksheets and the tests will be ok. In class you will work a lot of examples. He gives good explainations.

Very funny teacher, but sometimes was hard to understand-i would recommend him though

Great guy. Gives you your notes, and worksheets. Tells you everything you need to know. Easy if you study.

He is a great guy. He tries to help everyone understand but Gen Chem 2 is just hard sometimes. He does a great job teaching and he loves to help you if you ask him. You'll have to study and do a lot of examples on your own but an A isn't out of reach.

cutest guy ever! his tests are easy, and his outfits are a riot! (sandals with socks, shorts in winter, etc) lectures are easy, just make sure to take good notes! an easy A if you're good in science/math

Really nice guy, I loved his personality. Just make sure you keep up with studying and doing work outside of class and you'll be fine. I didn't and did really bad in the class but that's my own fault.

Definatley the hardest class my freshman year, but Anderson was a great teacher. A lot of examples, not many notes. Keep up in the class and it wont be to bad. Tests are pretty standard (3+Final) and 6 homework assignments. Homework is easy and prepares you for the tests.

Care alot. Helpful and easy to talk to. Works hard for students. Sometimes unclear, but usually go at explaing hard concepts. Several 50pt quizes, never checks homework.

Really funny! I love chemistry, but it was an easy class. Take him for lab if you can. My friend that didn't have him for lab had twice the work that I did.

he was very helpful and explained things in a way that everyone could relate to. do go to class tho since he teaches the materials from the book, but doesn't use the book.

The best gen chem professor around. Great setup, doesn't kill you with homework and tests aren't bad. I showed up to class knew what was going on and got A's on all the tests. If you're taking Chem take this guy. His lab is infinitely easier than Doyle, forget Doyle take ANderson.

Gives you notes/studyguides and tells you everything you need to know. Tests are not bad, probably the easiest chem teacher. Sometimes confusing, but most of the time very clear with explaining things. Also an EASY prof. for lab!

I had very poor exposure to Chemistry in high school, and at the beginning this class was very challenging, but Anderson is always more than willing to help. His office ours are convenient, and he teaches the subject very well. He always has funny comments in his lectures, and even though I got a B+, I would take him again in a heartbeat!

Easiest gen chem prof. Very good at explaining concepts and is surprisingly thorough when he wants to be. His teaching style worked for me. I totally winged the final and got an A. Do the bookwork if you need help with a concept, but it is not essential. To practice for his tests, go to Dr. Freitag and Dr. Mattson's pages and dl their oldtests

He's a great/easy teacher. Always explains things well. He'll go over most things more than once to make sure you've got it. I'd definately recommend him for the first chemistry class of college. I hadn't taken any chemistry since soph year in high school and I got an A. He'd also funny and super hot, I love his pants with the yellow butt stain.

Take it from someone who has had Dr. Anderson AND Dr. Mattson---ANDERSON is the best. He is very clear and prepares you much better for the exams. best gen chem prof. on campus. and hes sooo cute!

People complaining about Anderson would flunk any other chem prof's class. Anderson is helpful and willing to sit down with you and explain anything you don't understand, and explain it again if he has to until you understand it. People always come up with lame excuses to badmouth him, but the fact is that poor chemistry students do poorly.

I'm taking it over the summer and I think it's only because of him, that the class isn't as horrible as it could be. I'm a bit mixed about his attitude with students, but I think that he's a nice guy, overall. Today was our last day of lab and he was taking pictures of us. cute huh? =P haha

He was so nice. Sometimes he'd stop mid-sentence and forget what he was saying, but aside from that he's very clear about what you need to know. He gives you plenty of things to practice on so you feel prepared going into a test. Do homework from the book! (He uses some as test questions!) Take him; he's such an adorable old man!

He explains each type of problem you will encounter and gives lots of practice problems. He does an especially good job of preparing you for lab.

Best Gen Chem Prof. It's literally impossible not to do well if you do the work and come to class. Explains every problem on test.

Very helpful and extremely friendly. He gives handout notes and worksheets, and explains everything that you will need to know for the test. Excellent chemistry professor.

Great prof! Goes over everything you need to know carefully for every test. Practice test are especially helpful. Take him if you can.

Very helpful and friendly. Not always the most clear but is always willing to explain further.

He's a great professor! I really enjoyed having him this semester. Take his class because he's extremely helpful and always willing to help you if you ask him. :)

Do the homework and you'll be fine. Tests are not that difficult and neither is lab. I liked him.

Easy class and also hes a funny man. Sometimes a little boring. Doesnt grade homework.

Dr. Anderson is a great Chemistry professor.

Extremely easy, great guy. Tests are one page front and back, with about three weekly online homework assignments.

May be considered unconventional by Creighton standards but is effective nonetheless. Always keeps things interesting by providing insight not in the book and encourages class discussion

Great teacher! Willing to work with you outside of class. For a person that hates history, I loved going to this class. Tests are kind of difficult but assignments are pretty easy. One big paper and a few short essays throughout the semester. Overall great teacher, I highly recommend him!

Very different teaching style. Never lectured about what was in the textbook. But lectures were always interesting. Tests are hard-identify terms and short essays. Don't fall behind on the readings. I overslept and missed the midterm, and he was understanding enough to let me write a paper to make up for it, so of course I would recommend him

The best chemistry prof ever

He is a good teacher, people only complain b/c they do not go up to him and ask him for help. He knows what he is talking about and a great professor.

He's a pretty good teacher, but you get no homework so you have to be motivated outside of class to study on your own. I never studied and ended up with a B, but an A is very attainable if you put in work. If you are going to study a lot on your own, then take him. If you're someone who needs a reason to study, like homework, then don't take him.

Doc A is a really cute and sweet old guy! He left us candy canes on our desk for the final! He really knows Chemistry but is hard to understand at times. Sends out "last year's test" to study from, but actual test is much harder. Willing to give extra help and answer questions in class. Drops your lowest quiz, worst grade possible on final is 50%.

good teacher

Awesome teacher. Gives you exactly what you need to study for exam. You can talk to him about concerns and he will work with you. Dont waste time reading chapters rather look up the stuff from the study guide in the book. Tells you exactly what you need to study and relates history to our everyday lives. Not concerned with dates, places, and t

Doc A is great! He has a great sense of humor, a unique way of explaining things, and is very encouraging! He is willing to help with questions and stop to clarify any part of the lessons. There aren't any assignments to turn in, but if you do them on your own and ask any questions you should be set! And tests are only one page, front and back!

He likes to "stick it to the man" and teach his own way, he really likes to teach in his own words.

Pretty easy class with the basics from CHM 203. He's always willing to answer questions in class or during office hours--take advantage of that. Tests aren't hard, gives partial credit which helps a LOT. Curves the final so it's easier to do well. A funny old man who loves chemistry! I loved Doc A (I had him for both semesters of Gen Chem).

Dr. A is a good professor. His tests are only one page, front and back. He really wants you to understand the material and is more than willing to help u. He can be a little confusing at times. Study the previous years tests, the problems are very similar year to year.

Lectures are usually clear and easy to follow. Tests are not too bad, and the final is a standardized test so it's a little easier. He's also pretty funny and helpful.

Dr. Anderson's tests are generally just one page long and really straight-forward. A lot of problems are from the book. That's all the class grade is: tests. 4 tests, 1 Final. He's a lot better than people let on and he's really nice!

Dr.Anderson is such a cute little old man! so sweet, always willing to help you- however, he is a horrible teacher. Hard to understand, inconsistent and just not very good at explaining. It seems like he's about to fall off his perch soon :( he's just too old to be teaching anymore

For someone who doesn't like history, Anderson makes it very interesting. His grading for papers is easy although I thought the tests were somewhat difficult.

Test are EXTREMELY straightforward. No trick problems. If you know how to do his packets, which are pretty easy, you will do great on the tests. Four tests and the final. If you stay on top of the work (which isn't too bad), this class is not hard!!

Good class. I would highly recommend him for non-Western world. Makes it very interesting. Also, some days he let us go very early! Gives you what you need to know for the test. Multiple choice can be confusing though. Overall, quality class.

Go to class and take notes and the class is cake. He knows most people at Creighton aren't history majors, but still makes lecture interesting. Study Guide for tests. One take home test. Great professor with real world experience (plus, he's fun to look at too).

He is very nice and organized. I recommend doing the homework even though you don't have to turn it in. He is very willing to help you if you are struggling and he makes up his own tests and final. He also is in charge of his own chem lab which is really nice.

Dr. Anderson was the most difficult teacher I had. His tests were almost impossible if you didn't do the readings which were almost uncompleted. Nice guy but don't take if you are premed.

Dr. Anderson is adorable, like a small gnome. I understood the material really well, but some of my friends had difficulty. He does go quickly and doesn't do many demonstrations. He is very willing to answer questions,

He is the cutest little old man! He's very sweet and always willing to answer questions. The class is fairly easy but pay attention to quiz dates. Not doing well on one quiz may determine whether your final grade is a B+ or A, like in my case. However, it's not a hard class.

Favorite professor at Creighton. Do the packets he gives out. Everything on the tests is in the packets and on the notes. Gotta love Doc A!

Anderson is great honestly my favorite teacher hands down, tests are hard and there are a lot of quizzes but the kids who took AP chem did great almost 100% in the class for most of them. I did not and he still helped me, he tells you to go in for office hours and do!! He is great I love him and wish I could have him for my other classes

I love Dr. Anderson. Sometimes class can get boring but if you pay attention to his jokes it'll be better. He sends worksheets out after every class. You don't have to do them, but they are very helpful. If you have questions on the homework he will go over them in class. He also sends out practice exams unlike other professors.

Dr. Anderson is like everyone's grandpa. He sometimes even refers to students as his grandchildren. I love him as a person but he is not the best at explaining things. I have to go to the tutor at least once a week to keep up with the class. He does warn you about his pop quizzes and his tests are pretty easy.

Doc A is a very knowledgeable professor and his class is very manageable. His practice tests he offers are 95% similar to the test and he goes it the class before the test, which is VERY helpful. I took AP Chem, which helped a lot, but what I have realized is that the grade you receive represents the effort you put into learning the material.
