Hard to understand what is going on in class and marks strictly for no reason.
Dr. Salustri may be polarizing regarding how he sets up the course (MEC 325), and it may worry students unwilling to fail, but let me say this: he's one of the few rare profs who genuinely cares about preparing us students for engineering. Take advantage of his lectures, and as long as you're willing to learn, you'll benefit from the assignments.
Salustri is a polarizing professor - some love him, others despise him. The class is challenging, with inconsistent grading from TAs. Use study tools like Unstuckstudy to maximize your chances. Attendance is mandatory, but the textbook isn't really used.
Very difficult professor and although I didn't fully understood his teaching at the time, his approach is very brilliant.
Worst professor I had during my first year. My lowest mark as a guy who fully self studied my first year of eng. Avoid at all costs; loves to make your life difficult. Will stare at you really creepy during your exam and look away right as u notice (I'm a male too lol). He likes to watch you struggle and makes otherwise easy courses harder.
Horrible professor But would low-key would let him babysit my kids
MEC325 was supposed to be taught by two professors until Professor Newman left us to decompose with Salustri. I am honestly disappointed with the Engineering department for requiring MEC325 but only having Salustri teach it, as he's truly the epitome of what a distasteful, uncaring and insensitive professor is. Pray you have a good TA, or avoid.
Salustri would consistently bring politics into the discussion, specifically his anti-right-wing ideologies... I don't personally care about politics, but I'm in Engineering, not Politics for a reason. Stick to engineering material, and maybe your hair will stick to your head!
I can't believe professors such as Salustri are still employed at TMU. He is by far the most unprofessional "professor" I've ever had. One time he even put a picture of the pope kissing a guy on the big screen, and referred to him as "frankie".
