        He's going to be the guy that thinks he's the cool prof, but everyone loves him because he teaches the easy section of the course.

      I was taught “American Political Parties” by the active chair of the Republican Party in my state. Dude just talked about Rockefeller being the greatest thing to happen. Guess which state.

    Imagine going to college and your professor stands on the desk at every lecture

    Teaching is a noble profession because it takes a fair bit of training, it's hard work, and it's poorly paid. Why would you give the same respect to a rich unremarkable failson who is lecturing? Lecturing is probably easier than the job of an elementary or high school teacher tbh.

      I feel like most public school teachers at least are somewhat honorable with their intentions. And yeah the job is hard as fuck. College professors on the other hand... hm

        I mean it's hardly as if being a college professor is easy. Generally speaking, college professors are at the top of their field. Even professors at not elite universities are among the best in the world in their field. That level of expertise DOES matter for teaching advanced (and especially graduate) courses. At least in my experience, professors to put in a lot of effort to make truly difficult topics accessible to their students. (Although without a doubt there are programs where the instructors are bad and don't know what they are doing. This is generally the fault of the university administration pushing for a program to have underpaid lecturers without academic experience as a moneymaking venture.)

        Now on the other hand, lecturing what is essentially a non-academic elective like Beto is doing, that is a joke.

    As much of a dork Beto is, he'd for sure be down for having class outside and he'd totally skate a penny board. I think he may even be kinda cool.

      If anything he's just finding his role. Very uncool as a presidential candidate, pretty cool as a lib professor.

    At least it is at a standard state college. I have more respect he's doing Texas State than an Ivy league or UT. However, I absolutely would take a class with him just to see what it's like.

      Yeah, like seriously, good for him if he wants to give back in that way, and he’s teaching state politics, so would probably be interesting. But fuck that guy when it comes to being a politician lmao. Ivy League seems like the usual place ghouls go to infest young minds with their neoliberal drivel

      Can’t speak for Texas state, but Ivy League schools and DC area schools and University of a Chicago have NEVER EVER had any bad professors
