Good point, Judy, and Shannon . . . that's the trouble that I attribute to a
generation change. The rcent full time hier-es are teachers; and what's
happened at the new Cal. State Univ. Monterey Bay with teachers who are NOT
professors happens everywhere. It's the law. They can't request enough
money without accredited staff, which mandates full proffessors, assistant
profs. and teachers, as well as instructors. Different qualifications,
different teaching, different pay scale.
