My freshman Physics profs could care less about teaching freshman physics majors. He also was a lousy communicator. We all used the Feynman Lectures to get through that year.

Part of the genius of people like Feynman ( and T Sowell) is taking complex ideas and expressing them so that others can understand them.

The Kahn academy model - get a brilliant lecture on video, then have someone who can answer questions on any sticking points.

I remember watching Feynman interviews on PBS. Excellent stuff.
