Dr. Matthew M. Hinkle

Dr. Probst is one of the most multi-faceted and engaging teachers I have ever met. His breadth and depth of knowledge seems unending and is only paralleled by his willingness and patience to share everything he knows to his students and peers. It was an honor to study with him briefly at Colorado Tech.; I learned valuable insight in how to become a truly dedicated and caring teacher by being with Alex.

Jonathan Finer

Professor Probst is extremely understanding and willing to help any and all students that come to him for help. I have learned a great deal under his teachings.
