I had Flickstein my Sophomore year at Hofstra. HES NOT AS BAD AS THEY MAKE HIM SOUND! Guy has a great sense of humor and is very upfront. I'll admit hes not 100% totally fair at times, but i remember him as a good guy and professor

Comment:

I had him in '97. 1st, you are not allowed to have an opinion in his class. 2nd, the final had NOTHING to do with the classwork or homework. When I called him to discuss this, he said if I brought it further, who would administration believe? Pompu

Comment:

Can be extremely rude and intimidating (practically yells at you when you are trying to get help). Either you will love or hate him. Gives handouts that are very corny and hard to read because he has kept them for 25 YEARS. He is very narrow-minded, rude

Comment:

If you truly want to improve your diction and vocal qualities, he's the man for you. He can be brutally honest, but understand that he IS trying to help and as he says, it's what we're paying him for.

Comment:

He can be intimidating at first, but he is a really good professor. He tells it like it is. He really doesn't give too much work. You have oral quizes and that is basically it. Just prepare and you will do very well.

Comment:

He will not sugarcoat things. If you're bad, he'll tell you. Not for the easily offended.
