Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Chase is a great professor. He cares about his students and his lectures are super casual. He gives clear criteria for what is on the exams, and then there is an appraisal project you complete with a group throughout the semester. Overall an easier class, most of it was review from RE 410.Rate My Professors ↗

Definitely recommend taking Chase over other professors for RE 415. Super nice guy and is extremely clear about what will be tested for exams. Appraisal project is a lot of work regardless of who the professor is but Chase was always very helpful if you just go to office hours.Rate My Professors ↗
