Dude once they are desperate it'll be the PTO warriors that become "professors". permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world [S] 3 points 3 years ago (1 child) Professor isn't a title many on the right can achieve. A Education PhD, published research, and the clout in the education community play a role. The education community rarely produces any right wingers outside of the business related schools. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] foggy@lemmy.world 5 points 3 years ago (1 child) You do not need a PhD to teach college students. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world [S] 3 points 3 years ago (1 child) That is a college instructor, not a professor. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] foggy@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago (1 child) You do not need a teaching degree to be a professor. Most universities are private institutions, and can employ whomever they see fit in whichever positions they seem appropriate. They have a vested interest in employing accredited individuals. What I am saying is Florida will run out of such individuals at which time, it will become very easy for anyone to become a college professor. Also, I have been a college professor, and I only have an undergrad. Not in teaching. It was my actual title. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world [S] -3 points 3 years ago (1 child) Instructor and professor are not the same thing.

I just explained to you that that is not the case. Your simply disagreeing doesn't do anything for your argument. I have provided sources, and am a former professor who does not meet your criteria. The burden of proof is on you.

Anyone who calls themselves a professor and doesn't have a doctorate in their field is a hypocrite and a charlatan. I view them the same as a civilian pretending to be a military member or veteran.
