The psychology department is just horrible. Please reconsider and save yourself if going to a new university! I have personally been teaching courses for a while now and that is the best thing I have done here. My research is fun and I think it really adds to the field since nobody has done it before. But again, the department here is horrible. Office politics are sick. The department of psychology is divided and fight like children. The dean of the department is very intelligent but is unable to control his staff and the students needs are not being met. I feel horrible for our undergraduates who are going through this place like a factory. Good luck to everyone if you go here, you will need it to survive the extra level of department crap.
