[quote=Anonymous]The problem is the bar is relatively low to become a teacher. One can graduate from Podunk University and major in "Education" which is considered one of the easiest majors around. On top of that, college GPA really doesn't matter. Theoretically, you could have plenty of teachers who graduated with a degree in Education from a place like Bowie State College with a gpa of 2.8. I know there are teachers with masters degrees but typically the degree will be from GMU or JMU in Education or Education Administration which are not viewed as too demanding compared to law, medicine engineering etc. People will not take the teaching "profession" seriously until the qualification/compensation is raised. The perception is that what is hard about the job is dealing with kids all day not that the job itself is demanding or requires high level of thinking. [/quote]
