Worst Professor at Martin Luther College - WELS - Larry Otto Olson

 At one point, long ago, Olson tried to deny
earning a precious D.Min. at Fuller Seminary.
Like Bivens and Valleskey, he found his Helen of Troy,
but he cannot teach, according to his own students.
Evangelism is a Church Growth publication.

TOUGH GRADER
Makes a class on religion into a miserable ordeal. Assignments are confusing and he is harsh if you do them incorrectly. Olson assumes the worst whenever a student makes a mistake and seems to be hateful of all students. He brings down my opinion of an otherwise fine college. Cannot teach

I have never taken a class with Olson, but I have heard terrible things. He focuses on the Law and belittling students. While I recognize the importance of the Law, Olson uses it to chastise students and never builds them up with the Gospel. He is the very opposite of Christ like. He is nothing more than a bully on a power trip.

If you can avoid this professor, do so at all costs. He's rude, inconsiderate, boring, and doesn't know how to teach. Takes your money if you don't bring your book. Expects us to write papers at a level such that of an English scholar, which few of us actually are. This is not a grammar course, Olson, its religion.
