This is a joke right? Decent enough guy and I definitely learned a lot from him other than Arabic. But as far as a professor he did nothing but talk about himself or tell you how you should view the world.
William Rowe was the best professor I had.

Cooper --any history class
I had him for Antebellum History (or something like that). He was fantastic.
I hear he retired a few years ago.

I'm going to say two from the mid-1970's
Dr. Clarke, for Latin 2090...he had a knack for making the myths applicable to modern life
and as several others have mentioned Mark Carleton, I had the honor of being on a friendly basis with him...
one Carleton story I'll pass along, he did his PhD at Stanford and was able to get Alexander Kerinsky to talk at one of his classes...will never forget what Kerinsky told the class: "first, I would have made peace then I would have killed Lenin"

Craig Freeman, Media Law. Unfortunately, he left LSU for Oklahoma State, but that guy was awesome and made law fun (not easy to do).

Mark Carleton, History of Louisiana. Fascinating lecturer. Anything he didn't know about Louisiana wasn't worth knowing.
Stanley Hilton, WWII History. He also may have had a CIA affilliation. He missed the first week of class because he was off in Central America doing something he wouldn't discuss.
ETA: Hilton discussed in great detail the war within a war between the FBI and Military Intelligence. Hoover managed to carve out the western hemisphere as the FBI's exclusive territory, so you had FBI agents running all over South America chasing Nazi spies.

Really interesting guy. He was definitely a favorite of mine.
Karl Roider and Paolo Chirumbolo were pretty cool, too.

I learned way more from him than anyone else at LSU.
About Arabic and life. His method of breaking down the language clicked for me.
I can see why some would say the opposite, but if you tried, you learned!
Took as many courses as I could from him.

The question was "favorite" ... Perhaps William Rowe should have taught you how to understand a question?

She didn't really care about teaching accounting, as she was a Phd student..but I didn't care either.

Yeaaaaaaaa. He used to troll for dick around the 'Fruit Loop' aka Arsenal Park at the State Capitol in the 90s early 00's.
He ended up getting in major trouble for his 'behavioral issues'.
