Pros

Great community. Professors are willing to let you grow into your teaching ability by providing guidance, but letting you take lead after you become more comfortable. Diverse student population is very fun to work with.

Cons

The stipend is below average for the area and schools of similar size, but the university has taken steps in the last few years to begin remedying it.

The physics department is really small. Everyone knows each other and it is really fun to work, since your professors are very easy going, and you have most of the control in your research.the research topics are a lot.

Cons

There are very few/ none cons of working at Clark. The salary is adequate.
