  • This is a VERY philosophical course and not like any other sociology courses I've taken. If you're not into that sort of style I do not recommend. There are some interesting concepts but again very philosophical and abstract. Dr. Bonner is very willing to help out but it's hard to ask questions when you don't know what you don't know.
