I would complain to Academic Affairs or something
Good luck if you do; he's been doing that for years.
EDIT: Note, this is one of the reasons I sat on the end of a row every time I went to lecture.
EDIT2: Also, this would be a perfect opportunity to execute that one commercial (can't remember who its for):
(After all papers are passed up, one student walks up to stack of paper's at prof's desk) Student: "Do you have any idea who I am?" Professor: "No. (Insert snide remark about not caring here)" Student: "Good." (Student lifts up stack of papers at a random point in the middle, stuffs his paper in, drops stack, leaves)
OH HEY GUYS REMEMBER THAT THING ABOUT VISITING WITH A PROFESSOR AND EXPLAINING THE CIRCUMSTANCES AND THAT YOU'RE NOT AT FAULT FOR SOME OTHER IDIOT'S MISTAKE AND MAYBE THEY'LL UNDERSTAND AND REALIZE THAT YOU ACTUALLY GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THE CLASS WOW.
IT'S SO SIMPLE I'M YELLING, WHAT'S GOING ON GUYZ?!

The word "bi-partisan" usually means some larger-than-usual deception is being carried out.
If you go up, talk to him in person, and show that you actually give a shit, he's actually a pretty nice guy. No shit he has to put on a fucking asshole face when he teaches, there are hundreds of kids in his class and he has to keep them all under control with one of the most difficult classes of your first couple years.

Bienik's a dick, but if you pay attention and work at the class... you'll actually learn something and have a grudging respect for the guy. Physics 23 is one of the big make or break classes of Rolla. So it needs to be tough and the prof needs to be a dick. If you can't handle that shut up and get out, otherwise glhf with any upper level classes w/ dick professors.

yes and no, he isn't only a dick in the classroom, he is outside as well. He almost ran over me when he was speeding around campus, and yelled at me for being in his way...while I was in a crosswalk.
After talking to him about an issue in his class, yes he was respectful.

yes I understand the class is big and full of "kids"
But I am ADULT student..... have been bullied in basic training and on the job in the past when I was young and naive abt such things.
Bullying has no place in teaching plain and simple. The greatest teacher of all time was Jesus and he never pushed his weight around.
There are LOTS of Universities and schools out there. They are a BUSINESS .... never forget that! They work for YOU!
The idea that "tenuring" allows one to be an ass and never get fired is exactly why the USA is in the shape its in and flawed.
good luck to you, you are going to need it. Oh and please keep jesus off the forums, I talked with him the other night at our tuesday night poker game (before the strip club) and he doesn't like being talked about on the internet.
