Ivory tower mentality most of the professors have.

Unfortunately that comes along with any good university.

I have met a few exceptional ones, however, who are very much grounded while being experts in their field – without the elitism and separation from the practical, real needs of the people around them and the people of this state. The blind idealism with no attachment to reality or the constraints of a system within which we operate drives me absolutely crazy.

Just me.
