LSU people, pretty self-explanatory

Favorite: Kerry Sauley, Marketing. Cool guy and very enthusiastic about his job

Least: Bob Newman, Economics. Driest personality I've ever come across. Also treated ECON 2000 like a PhD level class

Another vote for Kerry. Loved coming to test day and seeing him in Eye black loved his pregame pep talks for the test.

Worst were both Econ. Stahl was the worst but Roussell a close second.

I've lived next to Bob Newman my whole life, and yes he is one of the dullest people to talk, but he walks around his yard with a cigar in his mouth and sports a huge fishing boat and nice truck so in the end he's winning

Tommy Karam, Speech 2060, Fall Semester 1988. Ended up at some point being the Academic Advisor something or other for the football team.

Gellrich is a guy you either love or hate. If you blow off the class, he will make you miserable. If you take your education seriously, he will challenge you and you will walk away with a ton of knowledge.

I've had a lot of great professors at LSU, but Mark Verret is far and away the worst.

Tie between Malcolm Richardson (English, Chaucer) and Rick Blackwood (English, Screenwriting) for favorite.

Ben fricking Martin for least favorite. I wouldn't spit on that man if he were on fire.

Sauley was the GOAT. I took his management class and he made it awesome.

Favorite was Barbara something (babs) that taught audit. The fact that I can't remember her last name is killing me. Related to or married to another accounting department prof. Maybe started with an A.

Worst by far, and I can't even come close to remembering this frickstick's name, was an AIS professor. I got him his last semester before moving to Virginia. Total douchebag.

Best: Sheldon Lotten (Spanish). People in the class either loved him or hated him. The people that hated him were the ones that rarely went to class and got behind. I seriously considered minoring in Spanish after taking his first class.

Worst: I didn't have any terrible teachers during my time at LSU, so this is hard. I guess I would say Peter Kelle (ISDS). The structure of the class was what I didn't like about it (1/2 online, 1/2 classroom) rather than his actual teaching. Doesn't matter, made an A.

Cecil Eubanks.

My least favorite was Professor Kirby-Smith. She hated men, was a terrible writer teaching a class on how to write, and attempted to fail me because I asked for an extension to revise a paper, and she gave an approval which she forgot about. I said I was filing a complaint and had witness statements, and she attempted to use her position and name to bully me into taking half credit. In the end, the dumb bitch filed the complaint on herself out of either spite or a misplaced superiority complex.

The entire class torched her evaluations that semester and I saved/submitted all the emails where she harassed me.

You won't find her at LSU anymore.

JHop is my favorite so far.

Least: Harhad, Math. That a-hole wouldn't round up my 89.8 to an A. Been 2 yrs and I'm still ticked
