[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is having this experience at Smith. Small classes from the first year with professors who get to know all the students. Even her lab first year was staffed by a professor, there are no grad student TAs. I imagine many other LACs are similar. [/quote] Do low quality phds end up as professors in these schools? Surely, ambitious and brilliant professors won’t like to be bogged down by drudgery of taking undergraduate classes and responding to similar questions year in year out.[/quote] You know that a lot of people actually like teaching college kids, don't you? It's their favorite part of the job. Professor jobs without the pressure to do research and get grant funding are heaven for many but are unicorn jobs. [/quote]
