well, in theory, profs SHOULD be teachers(that's why *I'm* going to 
school...to learn), but in reality, they are probably more
like servants.  there's all kinds of political shit, like fundraisers and 
kissing the dept. chair's ass (not to mention president ass), etc etc.  
and then there's the pressure to get published, so the university can 
boast that they have so & so teaching there....so a lot of times you end 
up w/ grad students teaching lower level courses, and mucking about...or 
you get professors who can'tgive all their time to teaching cause they 
have to do 'x' many functions or write 'x' many papers or....the list goes 
on and on....so *I* feel like i'm not getting the education i'm paying 
for...and even tho i'm going to a relatively cheap school ($4000/yr 
tuition) i think i should get more of the profs time and energy...

is this clear to anyone other than myself?
