He's not famous for academic purposes but thought I'd share.Sounds like a world class douche. I get it, he's trying to make a point. But he's not teaching anyone anything. He's using teaching as a platform for his ridiculous beliefs.Some of my best professors didn't believe in tests either, and I agreed.Other than that, not sure how he isn't teaching anyone anything?
