As a psychology undergrad, it's hard to be surprised at the lack of rigor when you realized a large part of the faculty does not understand what science is and therefore does not feel the need to believe in it. I'm still astonished that the entire subfield of psychodynamics is allowed to persist based on "case studies" ie phenomenology ie not science.
As a scientist should, I reserve the right to change my mind should the data or my understanding of it. I freely admit that I currently know little, but I'm still taken aback by the shortsightedness of some of my professors with regards to their... Epistemological relativism.
