Gack! Passed out on the bed again for two hours! There goes the 'plenty of time for my physics report'. ::scramble::
But yeah, I am a "wandering academic soul". So much so I don't plan being too far away from one of these institurions and study part-time for a good part of my life even well after graduating. Eventually I want to retire a bit early from Agriculture so I can become a professor. What better than to acquire the world's knowledge than to pass it down to the second generation?
I'd use that position to exercise my philosophy that you make the nation and the world a better place by beginning with the people. One example of this is that government officials are elected among the people; if the population is full of greedy ignoramuses, then that's probably what you're gonne elect into office. Like the metaphor George Carlin used on the subject: "Garbage in; garbage out." But, I don't know if I'm crossing an ethical boundary by invading another magisterium or teaching something else from what I've been paid to teach by giving my students some snippets on philosophical
Plus, I've always like the idea of teaching... back in High School I planned on teaching History. But I've always been one for the sciences, though. One of my dreams is actually to be one of those professors thought to be insane by most and the coolest by some. I've had these professors and they always end up being, by far, my favorites.
I'm taking general chemistry, and the teachers and instructors tell me that it's basically the toughest course they have, or at least it's right up there with the big ones. Next semester I have to take a specially-made one that combines an introduction to Organic Chemistry and the fundamentals of Biochemistry. It's a two-semester course made especially for Ag majors.
Edit:
But, I don't know if I'm crossing an ethical boundary by invading another magisterium or teaching something else from what I've been paid to teach by giving my students some snippets on philosophical thought. I'd probably start as a high school science teacher when I do retire and hope I might slip in a few extra questions to get the gears in their heads a'turning. Give them a few questions about their lives to mull over and, I don't know... either leave them to discuss it by its own merits, or make it a minor bonus question on a test.
I have twenty or thirty years to mull this one over, so... meh.
