<p>this doesn’t happen. it’s very annoying to have to point this out in every other thread. TAs don’t lecture. For some classes, they lead discussion sections, but these are 4th year PhD students who will become professors next year. Public Universities aren’t any different from private universities with regard to this aspect. And actually this as a focal point of many discussions about public Universities confuses me, if you care so much about teaching, then why do you care if it’s a 4th year PhD?</p>
