Comment:

Lark is one of my favorite professors that I have had. He is likely the smartest person I have taken a class from and he is good at explaining things. Assignments were designed to make sure that you knew and understood the material rather than make you fail. Also go to office hours! Enjoyable to talk to and has lots of cool stories.

He's a fine professor. Nothing special. His lectures are hella boring and I got annoyed that so many were for "cultural edification" that we weren't graded on when I had actual questions about the real material. But, he's not terrible. He has his policies and he sticks to them. He says attendance is mandatory, but do what you want.

No reason to go to class half the time, class is very dry and boring anyway. Other half is quizzes and turning in homework. Two tests & a final, 1 project.

He is meticulously thorough in everything he does. Some classes get longwinded and there is no such thing as a short stop by office hours. He is very bright and very fair on tests and grading. Great professor.
