Areas I Teach
Course Information
At 51³Ō¹Ļ, all faculty teach a variety of different courses. Typically, we do not use graduate teaching assistants, which means that your classes will be taught by professors and that you will have plenty of opportunities to get to know the faculty in your discipline.
Below I have listed some of the courses that I teach. We are always developing and trying out new classes, so the list may change now and then.
CHEM 110 | Chemistry & Your Environment
CHEM 220 | General Chemistry I
CHEM 230 | General Chemistry II
Education
PhD in Inorganic Chemistry, University of Washington, Seattle, Wash., in 2000
Bachelor of Science in Chemistry, Gonzaga University, Spokane, Wash., in 1995
