Molly Costanza-Robinson

The lectures were boring and confusing and I did not like Professor Constanza-Robinson's teaching style as I felt as though she overcomplicatedd simple concepts. The exams were easy but they were sometimes graded harshly and based on semantics. I really enjoyed the lab with Professor Przyperhart, though, and she was very knowledgeable and engaging. The lab reports were interesting and expectations for them were clearly explained.

Overall this class moved at a pretty slow pace, but was helpful in covering a broad overview of everything, which I understand can be hard to cover in just one semester. The lectures could feel long in some parts, especially earlier on in the semester where it just feels repetitive. The lab portion was really where the most value was, and actually being able to go outside most weeks really helped me visualize lecture content. Not much outside work in lecture or lab, which meant most of the synthesis was in lab and on exams.

I really liked this course! It completely changed how I interact with and see the world around me. Professor Costanza was an amazing lecturer; she was very effective and had contagious energy. Professor Lapin was an amazing lab professor! Our labs were so fun and allowed us to apply many of our lecture concepts to the real world. Three exams for lecture, and two papers for lab.
