<p>Exactly! Greatesteyn, once again we find something that we agree on! I also agree that one of the main problems of impacted majors is not so much that Berkeley is lacking resources, but simply that they don’t want to spend those resources to teach undergrads. </p>
<p>I mean seriously - profs who just don’t want to teach? Uh, pardon me, but isn’t that your job? It’s like saying that I want to be a cop, but I don’t want to catch criminals. The job description of all professors is that they are supposed to undertake teaching responsibilities. If they refuse to do that, then I think that is one of the few grounds for revocation of tenure. </p>
<p>If you don’t want to teach at all, then don’t be a prof, simple as that. Go join one of those think tanks or research labs where you can spend all of your time researching and publishing. By becoming a prof, you agreed to take some teaching responsibilities. That’s the deal that was made.</p>
