This course was actually interesting if you enjoy anthropology. I know some people have problems with Mark being overly expressive with his views but i think that shows his passion for his field and thats all i can ever ask for in a prof. Not the easiest course in the world but i for sure learned a lot. There was 1 mid term, paper, and presentation. Mark is an overall easy marker but also a great teacher!
