Professors: the Good, Bad and the Ugly

The Bad Professors

The bad ones seem to be disinterested. After years of repeating the same shtick, they see their students, lectures and curriculum as a downward spiral that becomes increasingly blurry as the years go by. While they leave a mark on students, it is not because they had a hand in their development. Bad professors view students as a necessary evil. They have control but for the wrong reasons. One reason is that discussions are rare and the lecture is a monotonous soliloquy. Some professors teach for the balance that it provides them. Some like the power, others are risk averse and enjoy the security of tenure, while many like the stature.
