I get a lunch break, but you guys get to post here all day.
Rich? Retired? Not me.


I work from home, my wife is my boss, and after 20 years, we still get
along, couldn't be better. Admittedly much of our business is now
automated, but we spent many a year and hour getting here;)



I teach at a university in the middle of the state.


What do you teach?

arts.

Uh oh, one of the brainwashers!

As you know, ignorance is being worn as a badge of honor by a good
many Americans, including certain beverage-based political
organizations.

Glad to hear there's still some who are committed to edumacating our
yungins.

Through no fault of mine, we have a very high percentage of our students
going on to receive doctorates in the arts and sciences.
Smart is encouraged; stupid is not. :)

That's a good thing for our country. I hope it continues to be in
vogue at your institution and a good many others.

God forbid, however, they become part of the lame stream media!
They'll instanty become left-wing advocates of socialism rather than
trained professionals. It's unavoidable, you know.

It is trolling to mention teaching and academic achievement?

Once in a while, we are the subject of "pressure" from outside
organizations that want us to reign in academic and student freedoms. So
far, student and faculty activism have been able to beat back the
admirers of Ned Lud. We've had some really interesting protests in the
last decade and a half since I've been here, including one in which the
students forced the administration to pay janitors a living wage and
form a union.

Look out, you've already raised some hairs. Just mentioning higher ed
makes folks nervous around here...

There really is a strong undercurrent of anti-intellectualism in this
country, more so than at any other time I can remember. It's too bad
because a dumbed down America will go down the tubes.
