I disagree.

/Again/?! ;)

Would I be me otherwise? Maybe I should rename myself to Disagreeable
Dragon. ;)

Wouldn't work. You disagree in too agreeable a fasion.

Oh my, I can't even get _that_ right! <:)

Besides, St George's disagrees with me a lot more often than you do! ;D

Well he ain't here right now, so there! :p~~~~

Well, that's the kind that should get out of the subject and do
something worthwhile IMnsHO. I had one of those in geology (don't ask).
If you are a professor, you are _hired_ to be consumed by the
furtherment of your subject.

Yes, that's probably so, even if it isn't directly stated in the job
description.

Right, it'd doesn't say in my job description that I can't be an atheist
either... ;)

On a point of trivia, only the head of each department at my university
and the holders of specific chairs were considered professors. All
other academic staff were lecturer, assistant lecturer and the like.

This is usually the case here too. If there are to professors in a
department, they at least have a subdepartment each in my experience.

It's somewhat academic (if you'll pardon the pun) anyway -- I've since
decided that whether one is a good or bad teacher doesn't in any way
depend on how well one knows one's field.

I agree. But it does depend on whether one finds the field interesting.

That's going to be a pretty big feature, naturally. Although as Erimess
has pointed out, 'tisn't universal, even then.

Let's just disagree in an agreeable fashion then, shall we?

'Bon!
