Was he a professor of something other thanDADA? Cos' I think in Canon, Dumbledore had mentioned that they never managed to have a defence professor for more than a year after Voldy's curse.

I wonder what all tests must they have done on that curse. Did they try to alternate professors between two subjects? Did they try semester assignment? After all it has been atleast 12 years or so for that curse, right?

Even in MOR, a string of bad events or bad professors has happened, so I assume not much has changed there.

Yes. Rowling said in an interview that he taught Muggle Studies.
