Like most faculty at small colleges like Grinnell, SamR teaches a wide variety of courses in the undergraduate CS curriculum and beyond, although his favorite courses to teach are those in the introductory sequence, when he has an opportunity to expose students to the wonders of algorithmic problem solving, and the upper-level programming languages course, where he can challenge students to think in new ways. SamR has also been known to teach a seminar for incoming students on Intellectual Property, the College's introductory stats course, and even a course in the Evolution of Technology.
