Have you ever had a vicious or mean professor? My professor was just nasty. He was racist towards Hispanics and blacks, said some slurs, he said that the Voting Rights Act should have been abolished, that minorites shouldn't vote, used to make some mean jokes and stuff.
He used to call us grifters and fools. He made fun of one of the students for wearing slippers in class, calling them a lazy bum. He was very, very harsh.
One. She was the new head of the Theology & Religious Studies department at my college. I took an introductory "Christian" theology course to get my religion requirement out of the way. She initially liked me, but our differences soon became apparent. She was theologically very liberal and I was/am a conservative Catholic. I only can imagine how her jaw dropped when I stated the Church's teachings on contraception as a sign of contradiction in the world. She actually sent me out to the hall like a first-grader (on an unrelated note) and then explicitly forced me into a very awkward position in order to change my grade. She was the only professor whom I felt uncomfortable walking in the hall or being alone in an elevator with.
Every other professor, even an old professor with ties to the radical left, loved me, even though they were aware of my beliefs. Unlike her, they had the ability to tolerate differences.
I only had one in a college PE class, which was required at the time but no longer is. She was a very manly woman who took herself way too seriously.
I had some really mean ones in high school, but not really in college. College professors tend to be a more intellectual bunch whereas high school teachers, at the time, were there because they found the easiest degree with 3 months a year off was one in Education.
I once took a creative writing class and the professor was a real jerk. Creative writing is something that comes from an individuals imagination so how can someone critisize that but he did to the point of having arguments with students and making some of them even cry. The professor took the class way too seriously no one should be chastised in the middle of the class and their ideas trashed. There was no need for it.

I had a white professor who was racist towards whites. He was a big time apologist. I'm all for telling history like it is, but racism is racism. I also had a few snooty and pretentious ones, but never any who were mean.
Worse one was being fired by the university so he decided to make the course so hard, no one could pass. He gave a pop major test, didn't teach the subject matter of microprocessors, announced another major test for Thursday on Tuesday. On Thursday, he came in and lectured for 40 minutes on West Texas Rivers. With only ten scheduled minutes left in the class, he looked at his watch, said there were about 45 minutes left but that was until the classroom was used next, and gave the exam.
People who should have made A's were making C's and D's and the rest of us struggling types, including yours truly, flunked.
Dropping courses at that university was not easy to begin with and I was very young and inexperienced back then. I believed to keep going regardless of the obstacles.
The worst part? All he really did was hurt the students. As far as the university was concerned, we had to pay again to take the course.
