Just about all of this person’s research and publications are about ‘responsiveness’, inclusivity, etc. in teaching.

PhD in physics, but not much hard physics at all...

(At least this one is ‘associate’ and not ‘adjunct’, as these stories usually go.)

Back when it was revealed that some college. ( U of North Carolina?) had created phantom classes for athletes, it turned out that they were PE classes. I thought ”Jeez...as long as you’re making stuff up, how about some physics or chemistry?”

So how in the hell can these morons that will be graduating from college in physics, engendering, metallurgy, and design EVER develop, market, and sell cars that will get a manufacturer’s fleet average of 50 MPG. Also stay together and last 300k miles.
