The thing that is most distressing is that it is a clas on critical thinking that starts out with uncritical discussion of points of dissention. Seems like a sleeper class to me. Buy the crib notes, show up and sit in the back and act like you're taking notes while doing the crossword or reading something interesting. Ace the tests by emulating the professor's rhetoric style and gather ye the credits at the end of the semester.
Or at least that's the way I got through Statistics and Pathology in Med School.
