What Would You Do : Verbally abusive staff member

[2L8]

what relationship does he have with you at the college?  Is he your advisor or teacher or in some capacity over you? If yes, then see if you can get that changed. It's clearly very upsetting to you and it will probably interfere with your success if you have to interact with him many times in the future.  
If he's just a worker, my advice is to ignore it.  The responses you're getting from the other staff and dept of ed makes me think you might be overreacting a little - and now that he's under your skin, it's probably very easy to do.  I get it though, it's probably horrible, but try to ignore it.
You're going into a profession that will have a lot of very harsh words being thrown around - critical and sometimes embarrassing.  I would look at how you can better adjust to the world instead of trying to get the world to adjust to you (which is pretty much not happening).  I know that's hard to hear, but this will happen to you again in future jobs.
