Dude Member Joined: Oct 2011 Posts: 2,856	Originally Posted by DAD22 Out of touch administration is certainly not unique to the profession of teaching. In fact, I'd say it borders on being ubiquitous, yet no other industry comes to mind in which the ability of an administrator to fire a subordinate proves to be so problematic. You seem concerned that the wrong teachers would lose their jobs, while I'm concerned that hopefully many of the right teachers (finally) would. So what makes teaching (without research) so different? What leads you to believe the supervisors would get it right? The article at the top of this thread clearly indicates they don't.
