[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Eh, we are exchanging anecdotes, I don't see now yours is any more valid than mine. I fancy myself to be of at least average intelligence. I find people interesting if they have strong well supported opinions. [/quote] most people in academia have strong well supported opinions. the problem is they are all the same. there is an increible amount of conformity and a good dose of snobbery. I am taking about social science and humanities; sciences could maybe be a little better.[/quote] This may explain it, my friend is a math professor. He could have gone into investment banking like his wife, which I suppose is one reason he set his sights on NY, but stayed to teach. He became tenured very quickly. We have very different views on politics, but I love listening to him opine precisely because he has come to a different conclusion than me. [/quote]
