[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When it comes to tenure track positions, even the middle of the road schools are getting top young academic talent today. I wouldn't be concerned about the academic qualifications of assistant, associate, or full professors at most universities today. Certainly not at the undergrad level. For grad school it's different. It gets more granular at that level. And that's where real subject expertise and mentorship matters more. But I would not be concerned about the academic qualifications of professors for undergrad at any school in the top 150 or so. [/quote] +1, these days the top talent from Harvard, UChicago, Princeton phds are going to so many different kinds of colleges at different tiers that you really don’t hasn’t to think about faculty quality that intensely. Of course, this is a reflection of the sorry state of academic hiring, but that’s a beast of its own[/quote]
