[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems more likely to me that the quality of teaching would improve rather than decline. Higher population equals higher competition for slots in PhD programs, which should lead to stronger graduates/future professors. This should be true in pretty much all professions.[/quote] Many schools are not hiring based on teaching skills, but on research/publication/potential grant sourcing capabilities. A lot of the work of teaching undergrads has been given to adjunct professors, who are often very good, though underpaid and overworked. The system is really broken. [/quote]
