angrychicken {l Wrote}:Psychobiology of Mental Disorders with Joe Tecci was awesome. One night a week, and halfway through each class, he would stop teaching, turn out the lights, and made everyone meditate for 15 or 20 minutes. He claimed that he would need total silence while meditating or else he would get crippling migranes. Of course, someone would either fart or snore about halfway through, prompting people (i.e., me) to laugh. It was usually just a nice nap in the middle of class. It seemed like the rest of the course was him trying to convince us that he could tell when people were lying by the number of times they blinked.

That's the one. Best part of any Big Dale class was him talking about his no-good kid. "The kid does this all the time. He's no good."
We had him for an Internet law comm class, and the subject matter consisted of hate groups and pr0n.

soulhunter {l Wrote}:From just an impressive professor/big mind perspective, Prof. Peter Clote i thought was up there. I had him for Genetic Algorithms as part of the Comp Sci track, but i think they gave him his own section for Computational Biology in the Biology department. For anyone who took it there is no way they will say that Algorithms was there favorite class, but the man himself was scary smart

Clote was really smart but an awful teacher. He was definitely a researcher first.
Himes' Intro to Christianity class changed me.

Glynn is still there and teaches a joke of a FAST III (Advanced Accounting) course at night. Corsini and Tehranian are too, but I don't know what they teach. The rest don't sound familiar.

Thanks. Wow. Glynn was pretty old when I was there. Corsini and Tehranian were up and comers. There was a hot blonde in my finance class. Tehranian was handing out the graded departmental mid-terms and she did real well so he asked her for a kiss since she did so well. She blushed and scurried back to her seat. In today's PC environment he would be fired or suspended.

Agreed. One of the few classes I didn't dread attending.

Tehranian is head of the department. Apparently he raises a lot of money and is quite the character.

He's a great guy and great teacher. I'm glad he's done well. Did his doctoral work at BAMA! as I recall.

Atef Ghobrial, Arabic- yeah, I took arabic, and Prof. Ghobrial was the man. He really cared about his students, cliche to say I know, but in his case its completely true.
Alan Rogers, History- He was a great prof, but not just for his teaching abilities. I took his class sophomore year and always wore the same red hat (one of those Mount Gay Rum sailing hats) to class. I didn't ever really see him again until senior year, walking through the Dustbowl. I was wearing a new hat and as we passed he said that he liked my new hat, that the other one had gotten a little too ratty. That impressed me.
WhiskeyEagle {l Wrote}:Seth Jacobs is amazing- the history of the Vietnam War class he taught was life changing. His LBJ and Nixon imitations were epic, fairly presented both sides to all topics and on the last day of class he received, no joke, a 5 minute standing ovation.
Tim Crawford is the man.
O'Neill taught a great Polly Sci class on Northern Ireland too- also the Burns head librarian.

Wasn't a big fan of O'Neill's Politics of Northern Ireland class--Probably because I knew more about the subject than him and I didn't like his political stance. However, he did have some great guests.
