Comment:

Professor Ragsdale was really easy and really funny. He helps you in lab so you don't feel like youre fishing in empty water. Too bad hes leaving. If he is going to another college and not retiring then you need to take him. Hope his replacement lives up to his reputation, because that's who I have next.

Ragsdale's pre-labs are somewhat long. However, he is very lenient on reports and is willing to help you if you go to him.

Comment:

He's a funny guy, makes having a 3 hour chemistry lab a little better. His lab reports are harder than other teachers, but doable. If you put a little effort into them then you'll be fine. He is there for help if you need it but makes you feel stupid sometimes like you should have known that. I would take him again though for his personality.

He is helpful but he's a slight butthole. His Pre-Lab is completely drawn out , and is a waste of time!!

Best professor that anyone can ask for. If you need help, ask! He doesn't mind helping you and will make sure that you understand. His labs are easy. You will get out early, if you finish early. You work at your own pace.

Comment:

T. Ragsdale was one of the best chemistry profesors I've ever had. I understood everything that he taught me and became more interested in chemistry after taking his class. He is really committed to teaching his students and thats why I continue to go to him for help in my advanced chemistry classes instead of my own profesors.

Comment:

He is an interesting professor/man. The pre-lab is unnecessarily long and incredibly boring. He is never really organized. The labs usually last 3 hours because he spends so much time in pre-lab. All the work required before coming to lab was aggravating. I loved his odd sense of humor. The lab reports were sometimes long and difficult, but I never

Hello can you say boaring, I had him for 102L and he made me want to change my major. He talks forever and he's very disorganized. Yes he is very helpful but he'll never see me in another one if his labs if my life depeded on it. STAY AWAY, TAKE HANKINSON!!!!

Comment:

The prelab is very long and boring, and he doesn't give you a whole week on the lab reports (like some lab teachers do). But if you don't know how to do something on the lab report, take it to his office and he will show you exactly what to do. He's in his office a lot and doesn't mind helping you

Very nice teacher! Pre lab is LONG but very helpful. He's not easy; but if you work for your grade, he's very lenient. He gives you what you deserve, not what he thinks you should get.

I love Ragsdale. He was the highlight of my week. He is very understanding. He is one of the most unorganized professors that I have had, but he always pulls things together. He helps you with the course material not only for lab, but for lecture as well. He is a great guy!
