that is the one branch of mathematics that I skipped when I skipped when I earned my BS in math. It was offered my last semester during my senior year, but I had that professor for two other classes and didn't want to put myself through the hell of taking another class from him. I already taken courses in four of the five areas of math and had 36 hours so I didn't take any math courses that semester and concentrated on keeping my overall GPA above a 3.0 since I was at a 3.04 going into the semester. The strategy worked and other than getting some planter's warts cut out of my foot and getting food poisoning during spring break I had more fun that semester than throughout the rest of college.

When I had him for calculus II we only had two grades--a midterm and a final. He didn't get around to grading the midterm until about a week before the final so it was too late to drop the class. He is nearing retirement, but he still is rated as the worst professor in the department by the students each year.
