Comment:
Amazing professor; too bad he's retiring after 46 years of teaching. LOVED his class. Wish I had known about him earlier. He's very respectable & professional. I will miss him dearly because you don't find teachers like him everywhere. He's one of a kind! If you read this Dr. B, I want you to know that I greatly appreciate you. Thank you!

Comment:
His understanding of chemistry is aw-inspiring. An A is in the realm of possibility, although I fell just shy of an A. Even if you don't get an A, I promise you will learn more about chemistry than you ever thought you could. He will literally change the way you see the world around you. This class will push you, and it's very worth it.

Professor Bowman is a fantastic teacher! His classes fill up quickly so be sure to sign up for his classes the moment enrollment becomes available. He is extremely knowledgeable and has been teaching for many years so he has his job down pat. If you're interested in actually learning the course material you won't regret taking his class!

Dr. Bowman is a great chemistry professor! I have taken him for both Chem 111 and 112. He teaches in a clear, effective, and organized manner. He is also willing to help whenever there are questions. Although chemistry is not an easy subject, if you truly work hard and study you will to make it out with an A or B (i did). I highly recommend him.

Bowman is the only person I would ever be willing to take Chemistry under. I once could not get in his second semester class and waited a full year to take it. It was well worth it.

I absolutely loved him! I took him for Gen and Organic and he was always understanding and willing to help. Despite taking the courses together (gen and ochem at the same time), the lowest grade I received was an 89. I failed high school chem, so I know I passed because of him! I wish he taught Biochem too! Best and most caring professor ever!

Great instructor. Very clear and explicit. Willing to help if you need it. I will be taking him again for 112. Might not be the easiest, but if you put in the effort you can surely get an A. Highly recommended.

He clearly states his high expectations of your character and work. Grading method is clear. Anything that is turned is graded and returned the next day. A paper is handed out the day before a test saying exactly what is on the test, what needs to be memorized, and what is given (such as constants). Topics are clearly introduced before lectured on.

Bowman is a nice guy and he knows his stuff he is very professional in class and lab which isn't necessarily a bad thing but a warning the material he presents on his tests tends to be alot more difficult than the material he presents in class so study purly from the textbook
