Comment:
Dr. Clayton is the worst professor to get for chemistry. He does not teach well and can not speak clearly. If you want an easy grade, then he is a guy for you. If you want to learn, I suggest getting another teacher.

Comment:
he doesnt relate anything he talks about to chemistry..he talks about the sticker on the back of his car or his daughter..he never stays on topic & he never takes role hes too busy talking..he is funny tho..i wouldnt recommend that you take him if you are at all interested in the science field but if you want an easy grade then go ahead & take him

Comment:
I had him for chem 101 which inspired me to take him for 102. He doesn't stay on topic but is an easy A. I never studied but he saw that I was in class everyday and stayed awake which was hard to do and he gave me a B. Take him for lab, you can sneak out and leave early because he barely stays in there himself just do the reports.

Dr. Clayton can NOT stay on topic, if you are going to study any kind of science do not take him.

Dr Clayton is a GREAT comedian, but a sorry teacher who lacks focus. he does help you with whatever you need help with. I love his class because it gives me time to do work for other classes that I may have that day.

HE LACKS FOCUS AND DETERMINATION, also he lacks coherent speaking skills. He is the only professor I know who jumps around like a chicken during a lecture. How did he become the chair of the chemistry department?

Comment:
If you want to laugh your head off, take Dr. Clayton. If you want to learn, DON'T take Dr. Clayton. He is the funniest, quirkiest prof I have ever had. He gets so worked up and talks about things like gall bladder stones and how he lost a shoe during a riot at a football game. If you;re nice and show some interest, he's very helpful.

It's the easiest class ever cuz he gives the answers to everything (especially in lab). He gets side tracked w/ these crazy stories, so don't ask him anything unless you desperately need to!

I took naps in his class and when I finally woke up he would still be on the same subject. Take him during the summer.

the man knows his stuff but just doesn't know how to teach it. all you have to do is show up and look interested in what his saying. has his favorites. easy class but you won't learn anything.

His class is a class that is easy to make an A but you don't really learn anything. If you are planning to take a higher level chemistry class after 102, either take someone else, or get some major tutoring.

Neat guy. A little strange at times, but it is an easy class. Taking notes is next to impossible. As long as you don't get on his bad side everything will be okay.

Dr.Clayton is a very old and senile man who has sweaty arm pits and sucks on pennies, but his class is not that hard if you can get over him spazing out randomly. I'm afraid that he is going to give himself a heart attack one day. BUT he does help if you go to his office. An easy A!!!

He was all over the board, talking about random things that had nothing to do with lecture. Trys to put down some students and praise others just because they're more his type. Easy class if you want to put up with a old man.

He's an easy A. Just laugh at his corny jokes and try to keep up with his crack baby like attitude.

OK, so it seems like he's "all over the place", but just write down everything he says, then interpret your notes later. The folks who make that effort make an A. The rest just complain about how hard he is and struggle. Which one do you want to be.
