I attended Manhattan University (then Manhattan College) as an undergraduate approximately two…read moreyears ago, after being enrolled at the institution four years prior. During my time there, I was required to take a religious studies course taught by a professor who demonstrated a clear ideological bias. When I respectfully disagreed with her philosophical views, she responded by mocking me and ostracizing me in front of the class, using her authority as a professor to do so. After this behavior escalated, I disengaged from class participation. After I did this, the professor abruptly left the lecture. After she came back, she asked me to stay after class. During that conversation, I stated that I believed the situation warranted getting the dean involved. The dean told me that I should apologize to the professor regardless of whether I was right or wrong, which I did. The professor was not held to the same standard. A week later, I was given the opportunity to be transferred out of the course mid-semester. I found this unprofessional and disruptive, but I agreed to do so because the environment no longer felt safe or conducive to learning. The replacement course required me to complete all missed coursework independently, placing the burden of the situation entirely on me. This experience reflected a broader pattern I observed at the institution, a lack of concern for students well being and a tendency to treat students as obstacles to administrative efficiency rather than individuals. Based on my cumulative experiences, I would strongly caution prospective students to consider other options.
