[I post this for its contrarian value. To my great surprise, Cole gives him a good one. Granted, it rests on the professor being very generous with his incompletes, and not making clear that they will automatically become fails at a certain point in the near future. And he judges him by the goals he laid out campaigning rather than by best-practice desiderata. But it's still an interesting view.]
