Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Darald is a passionate professor and it shows in his lectures. He recognizes that the material can be heavy at times, and he did a good job of lightening the mood when needed. Class is easy if you put in the time.

AWESOME teacher. I'm not sure why people think it's hard to get an A on his papers, unless you're horrible at writing. He makes everything clear cut for you and is always willing to work with you, too.

Quality 3/5Difficulty 4/5
He is a full of himself and thinks he is better than others. He is not helpful and is not willing to work with students. Basically, he is stuck up and arrogant.

I feel if you are interested in family violence, go volunteer at a local shelter and you're learn a lot more about domestic abuse and its dynamics. The readings are terrible and the papers are difficult to get an A on. I also feel like Dr. Hanusa perpetuates certain stereotypes and cultural biases.
