I was a teaching assistant at UC Santa Barbara for 3 years, I can tell you, students might slug through the calculations , but none -- or a precious few -- really get the big picture. Mostly, it is that calculus pedagogy is a disaster. And

this is very sad. I live blocks from Lehman college but that was a few decades before my time (if he taught in 1979). Unrelated, there is also Melvyn Nathan who does additive combinatorics.
