Frontal Lobe Removal

Submitted by Kevin M (United States), Apr 18, 2006 at 13:27

Tenure? A lifetime of posturing mercilessly over the uncongealed minds of our nation's youth at the public expense? Freedom to shamelessly indulge every prejudice I can muster under the Teflon umbrella of scholatic supremacy? Dictating, in the words of Thomas Sowell, "the vision of the anointed" to tuition-paying students in search of a point of view because they don't have one of their own?

Where do I sign up for this?!

What did you say? I have to have a frontal lobe removed? Is that what it takes to be a professor in academia today?

Hmmmmmmm...

Maybe not. I just may need my lobes in case these idiots get voted into public office.
