Nicely Said............

Quote of the Day
“The professor caste is the most privileged caste in America today. Once they have tenure, they have lifetime jobs with four months paid vacation every year and sabbaticals. In return, they may teach only six or seven hours a week, or two classes a semester. They can be completely incompetent, but you can't fire them. Salaries can be 80 percent of the cost of running an institution … If they had to teach 12 hours instead of six, it would dramatically reduce the tuition charges, because you would need half as many people.”
- David Horowitz
