This class was absolutely terrible! The professor was, by far, the worst I have ever had! She is very demanding, rude, and irrational. DO NOTTTT take her! I made an A in the course but have no idea how that happened. I definitely deserved an A for putting up with her for 8 weeks though. She doesn't explain the material well and if you have a question about ANYTHING she will not answer it. Instead of simply answering your question in a yes/no manner, she will fuss at you for asking the question in the first place and blame you for not reading the material and thinking critically about the problem. Our entire class, (11 of the 20 who stuck out the class) banded together just to try and make the course tolerable. The final was the biggest slap in the face ever! We had to do the longest and hardest assignment of the course in two hours (we normally had 3 or 4 days to do an assignment). During the duration of the course, Dr. Pinnick constantly reiterated the point of taking time to write your position papers. She stated that multiple days and hours need to be given to the paper. Heck, it took me an entire day to just figure out what the heck she was saying. She loves to intimidate you with her vocabulary, so you will probably have no clue what she is talking about. Oh, and did I mention the course had nothing to do with medical ethics! We never mentioned Abortion, pharm. companies, end of life decisions, stem cell, insurance agencies and health care, etc. In fact, the biomedical ethics course was taught with the same syllabus and readings as Dr. Pinnick's traditional ethics course. So basically, it was a general ethics course, not a biomedical ethics course. Stay away from this professor at all costs! Like I said, I don't know how on earth I made an A, but truly deserved it for putting up with the professor!
