Bob, I'm not interested in what is common knowledge. I was only interested in your 100% blanket demeaning of every instructor not teaching at some top college. What you essentially said was that no professor at Salisbury University was qualified to teach at a place like Harvard on the simple but totally biased proposition that if they were qualified they would be teaching at Harvard and not SU.
Think about your initial statement. Let's assume there are 5,000 teaching positions at the top schools. Taken at face value, your initial comment would mean there were only 5,000 people in the entire country qualified to teach at those schools. Want the best bang for your buck? Go to University of Virginia.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: It's all part of the same thing Joe. If a school has Nobel Prize winners teaching courses the school gets a better ranking. Understand the point I'm trying to make, the CV's of the professors at Harvard or MIT are more impressive than the CV's of the professors at Salisbury. I'm also willing to bet that the SAT's and high school GPA's of the students admitted to MIT are higher than the students admitted to Salisbury. My youngest son went to Notre Dame, 65% of the incoming freshman class were their school Valedictorians, 75% were class officers, most of them president. They get over 18,000 applicants a year, Harvard got over 37,000 this year and took I think a little over 5%. Like it or not graduates are judged a lot by the pedigree of their school, a GPA of 4.0 from Salisbury is impressive but would pale by comparison with a 4.0 from Harvard. |
