| ^^^Good point. Some of those schools are pretty hairy. It really is a case (IMO, of course) of reaching some of the kids somehow. If this guy is well-liked by his students, well, it's important to really grasp the significance of that. You can have degrees up and down, but if those kids don't like you enough to turn up to class and open their ears... all the book-learnin' in the world isn't going to make a difference.
So he lied. I probably wouldn't hire him to teach. So what? There are some schools out in the boonies that are dying for teachers. They don't give a shit if they're old and decrepit, German, 18 years old, degree or no degree. They need somebody. |
