Among the top 25 schools with the worst professors, six of them hail from Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Nearly a third come from all parts of the Midwest.
The pair of schools with the lousiest teachers are service academies – U.S. Merchant Marine Academy and U.S. Coast Guard Academy. Here’s what curious about this — two other service academies - United States Military Academy and the Air Force Academy - earned spots on the list of colleges with the best professors.
The list with the poor teachers is just about evenly divided among private universities (13) and public universities (12). At least seven of the schools focus on engineering, which is a brutally hard major.
