Totally agree with that article you posted the link to, especially the
Honors College comments, The students get first pick at the professors
and have much smaller more personal classes.


It's hard to believe that 70% of the undergraduate classes at most
universities are now taught by outsourced, "paid-by-the-course", adjunct
professors!

A sad state of affairs ... this corporate model of teaching was unheard
of in my day.

Might as well get some of that "discount knowledge from the local
community college", if it's the same folks doing the teaching!

Hell, at this rate it won't be long before Haji's teaching physics at
Harvard ... from a call center in New Delhi.
