Clark is wonderful I miss him. He made chem 104 easy to understand and extremely fair. By far the best 104 professor at Madison. I got an A while my friends with other professors got Bs because he made material clear and fair. Really cares about our understanding tooRate My Professors ↗
This class is difficult, and a lot of work. However, Clark Landis is a good professor, with clear lectures and lots of outside availability. He obviously cares about the students, and although the grading is poorly constructed, he is fairly forgiving and lenient.Rate My Professors ↗
Hes such a great professor who really cares about his students success. He uses TopHat a lot but he goes into the seats and talks it out with students and helps them understand the content. His tests were super easy (almost identical to the practice exams). 100% loved himRate My Professors ↗
Clark Landis is best professor you can have for Chem 104. I thought his lectures were extremely clear and his tests were fair. The practice exams were helpful when preparing for the exams. I believe the averages on exams were the highest among all of the professor. Highly recommend him for Gen Chem.Rate My Professors ↗
Landis is one of the most caring and knowledgeable professors for chem 104. His lectures are not focused on tophat questions, but more on making sure you learn the basics for the harder problems outside of class. I also felt that his exams were very fair and he never put questions that were almost trick questions.Rate My Professors ↗
Professor Landis is a great professor. He is knowledgeable, engaging and patient. Workload is acceptable and useful. Not a tough grader at all and he will give feedback to students if he is grading the exam.Rate My Professors ↗
