The professor is a smart man who teaches the subject extremely well. However, I do wish that Maniquis could learn to be more sensitive about race, ethnicity, and disabilities. He often makes unnecessary, thoughtless, an insensitive comments on these sensitive issues. Thus, he shows his lack of understanding of the complexities that such matters entail; consequently, he often ends up insulting, belittling, and hurting others. Perhaps he should learn to bite his tongue or realize that teeth were made not only to bite but to placate the thoughtless tongue from uttering harsh and useless comments. If Maniquis were more sensitive and thoughtful, I would consider him to be not only a stellar professor but a remarkable man.
