I am disappointed that students take it upon themselves to attack other students based on their opinion of the professor. The point of this site is to give an opinion of the teacher, not slam someone else because they don't hold the same opinion. With that said, I would like to say a few things concerning this professor. My first problem with Dr. Pinnick is that she justifies selling you her own "book" (poor quality photocopies) by pointing out that it is cheaper than most logic texts. You are required to pay cash and these "books" have no resale value because she claims that every "book" has been revised from the previous semester. I don't even think this is legal. While Dr. Pinnick's knowledge of logic is extensive, I found it difficult to concentrate on the real lesson because she seems to find pleasure in humiliating students for everything from having gum (not allowed), to not reciting a definition verbatim (and I mean word for word exactly). I wish I could have seen the helpful person that some students describe, but I only saw someone who was interested in making students apprehensive, if not fearful of making a mistake. I do not shy away from challeging classes, but I am always disappointed when I can't make a connection with the professor. I think this professor makes a concious effort to get her students to hate her. I would just stress that there are many other gen. ed. courses that are enjoyable-this one will probably not be one of them.
