Prof. Barker is also the director of JSCC. She is not easy and not hard but expects a lot. After you get used to it, you see how it helps you and makes a lot of sense. We have fun and learn which is good. She will spend time getting to know you and will go out of her way to help you. Its not the most interesting class but Prof. Barker does her best
