Take this as training for dealing with a boss that annoys you, or motivation to start your own company so that you can be that annoying boss.
At this point I would rather not have the class and do what they had done the past few years and done the class as an independent study. Half the class has no idea what a primitive is because he taught that all variables are objects, even ints and chars and the such. I think no class would be better than a class that is almost guaranteeing that you learn the wrong thing. I get your point about being grateful to have a class, but sometimes no class is better than a horrible one.
