Clark plays favorites so pucker up. If you know as much as she does she feels intimidated and will try to grade you down. She does not try to show the close-minded what sociological studies prove on certain sensitive subjects, so students remain ignorant. I made an A in class based on prior knowledge and personal experience, not from instruction.

I do not recommend this teacher. She will talk about everything and anything but the topic of the class. You must read the textbook and learn the subject independantly to have a chance, but she often tells us to study the wrong chapter. It seems like there's no way to know what you'll be tested on until you get the test. The class is very unclear.
