[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Actually, classes at places like Swarthmore or Wesleyan are arguably more rigorous than classes at Harvard.[/quote] I went to a similar SLAC to these two and never had a class not taught by a professor. I have three very good friends who went to Harvard and almost all their classes the first two years were taught by TAs.[/quote] But so what? There are plenty of TAs who are better teachers than many professors. TAs haven't finished their doctorates, but the doctorate only shows how well you can research, not how well you can teach. I went to a SLAC and had excellent professors, but their teaching ability didn't come from their degrees. It was because they had the interest in and ability to be good at it. [/quote]
