Great sense of humor. Go to class or read the text, one or the other, both if you're aiming at a 4.0. Hardest part was the lab credits.

Comment:

amazing! this guy is probably one of the best professors i'l had in my college career... Its a shame that no one else will be able to learn from him because of his retirement.Not only did he teach me chemistry, but he also taught me that when driving on telegraph, to stay with the herd rather than speed off and make frequent stops. thanks compton!

Easily the best gen-ed chemistry professor in the entire department! This may sound impossible, but not only is his class the easiest, you learn the most in it too! He uses a lot of demos and is very approachable.

The best prof I have ever had. Makes sure the whole class understands the concept before moving on. If you do the assigned homework (which is very little) and come to class, you will do well in his class. 90% is a 4.0

Compton is by far one of the best. He teaches so you can understand the concepts of chemistry insted of memorizing some meaningless data and not knowing what to do with it.

This class is worth your money. It would be stupid to consider taking a different professor. This professor is as good as they get.
