Thanks to him I changed my major and choose a better one with a more competent department not run by farmers who don't understand anything about professionalism and higher education and I have no regrets.

He gets two thumbs down from me. Learn to treat your students better, both inside the classroom and in the shop that you shouldn't even be running. Way to set a bad example as an educator, engineer, and leader
