Some can see in college that teaching is not the profession it used to be and they go elsewhere.[/quote] Attitudes like this always p@#$-me-the-hell-off. I'm over 50 and a lot of my colleagues are over 50. I'll put our enthusiasm for teaching and caring for the student up against any 20-something. We also know what the hell we're doing.
