Comment:
Worst teacher I have ever had. Our first test was after the drop date, I got all of the answers correct (my mom teaches physics) but because I didn't do things HIS WAY I made an 11. Seriously. He's as arrogant as it gets. I used to like physics. He also has a problem with students who do problems the way they have learned in eng tech. Terrible.

I loved Dr. Folse...he was one of the best profs that I had at USM. He was extremely nice when I went to him for help. I think that people do not like him because he is difficult and students are lazy as hell.

Comment:
His subject is difficult enough without him making it harder with his hurried, inadequate, vague explanations. He tends to make you feel dumb if you go to him for help. I don't think he is really prejudiced against females, but he does seem to think that they don't really belong in Physics.

This dude is an ****. That's all there is to it. It's his way or no way. I actually watched him argue with a student in class because the student couldn't understand why he grade the quized one way one week, and a different way the next week. i hated this guy. TAKE SOMEONE ELSE.

This was a very interesting class but the teacher was very arrogant. Telling students from day one that their not smart enough to be in his class and that they are going to fail is not my idea of good teaching.

Comment:
A hard class, but a very good teacher. If you go to every class meeting, *do the homework*, and study, you will do well. The homework is very important, you should do the problems as you finish each section and then go back and do them all again before the test. If you have trouble go talk to him!

Comment:
He's tough, but teaches as well as any professor out there. I admit his personal ways can be tough on those lacking in self confidence, but academically, he's on the money. By the way, the female discrimination thing is crap. I'm female and made an A. He always helped b/c I was always prepared.

Comment:
This man is very condescending. He enjoys having people fail his class and even brags about the number of students he has had retake the class. You had better work problems his way or the whole thing is wrong. He is rude and arrogant.

this is a tenure gone terribly wrong. he has no empathy and has no idea how to understand a students needs. he will make you feel horrible for asking for help or if you do not understand. its not about easy vs. hard, its about you enjoying your education or not.

This instructor had a serious attitude problem. He did not understand the needs of his students and automatically assumed that those who were confused by his inadequate instruction were ignorant and lazy.

Comment:
He knows the material well but he discriminates against females vs males. He believes women have no place in the scientific community or that is how he makes you feel when you go for help. I dropped class because he made me feel out of place. But his exams and quizzes were fair.

Very condescending man who has no business teaching. He is a good lecturer but he makes you feel out of place and stupid if you go to him for help. If he likes you, great...if not....well then tough for you.. I finally dropped the class.

Good points: Tests are rather fair. His lectures are very interesting and informative. Bad points: His expectations on homework are very unclear. His class can generate alot of stress. He can be degrading when you ask for help.
