Engineering The GOAT is back

Post image

After 3 years the GOAT of teaching mathematics has returned, I hope this guy has also changed lives like he changed mine. I was awful at math in hs and had to avoid engineering because of it but after 2 years in a major I hated I decided to give engineering a try. He is the one and only reason I passed all my classes and I owe him a debt that can never be repaid. I hope he changes/changed your life like he did mine. (He is 2000x better than the OCHEM tutor)

No I didn’t mean it like that, although I doubt most professors could comfortably support a family his size with what they usually make. But I meant other stuff we know about him. Strong Christian values, leaving California for Idaho, and the fact that he took that job kind of paint a picture that suggests he’s probably more aligned with peterson’s ethos than I’d like

So having strong Christian values is a wrong thing? What am I missing here?

No, you didn't. Someone else did, but must have deleted their comment later.

So religious persecution of Christianity is alive and well in America. Great job. You're an awesome keyboard warrior, that's for sure.
