Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
An amazing lecturer, you can really tell she cares about the topics she is teaching. Lectures can get pretty long, but other than that it was chill. Exams arent too hard, neither are the essays. If you get a chance to take a class by her, i would highly recommend to do so.

Professor Clark-Pujara is to this day the greatest professor I've ever had. She is brilliant and passionate and truly cares about her students and the subject she's teaching. So much of this information is new but so integral to Us history. She offers easy and educational extra credit and assignments/lectures are clear. Take this class if you can.
