Default Who is gonna pay for the R&D?

Most college professors I know and work with didn't spend 10 to 12
years of schooling before residency to obtain positions as professors.
You could make an argument for PhD level, but the only reason you get
a PhD is for research - not instruction.



According to the accrediting bodies, you always have to be "one ahead"
of your students. Anybody expecting to teach to students at a Masters
level must have a Doctorate. Most Universities want (FT) individuals
qualified to teach to the Graduate Level. They can always find part
timers... usually new graduates to teach the lower classes....

Everybody I teach with had at least a bachelors and 20 years in the
field before they were hired. Most were retired military.

All of us have signed our name in log books that can be used as legal
documents against us in a court of law. Even a physician doesn't sign a
paper that attests to a 100% error free job every time. In fact, they
have you sign reams of paper attesting to the fact that they are
blameless... whatever....

Plus, a physician makes a mistake? One fatality. One of us or our
students? Tens... hundreds... with the potential for thousands of
fatalities.

I'm tired of hearing whiny physicians that have never had a *real* job,
any more than a PhD in Philosophy has, blubber about being sued....
they painted a target on their OWN back....

Again, consider when this "medical costs are out of hand" first came to
light....
