unionwatch.org/dump-the-masters-bump/ Having a Masters in English, it occurred to me early on that the High School Freshman and Juniors assigned to my classes were light years away from what they would encounter in English 101, and that all the expertise tied to my 400 level classes might have well been taught in Swahili given their ability to comprehend any of it. Of course, there is that rare student that could benefit. . . but fat chance given my assignment to dumb him down to the rest of the class. Most lower division college classes are taught by graduate students, working towards a Masters, whose levels far exceed those of their students. The notion that those students, 3-4 years younger, would somehow benefit from having a Masters degreed instructor in high school is pure union fiction to climb up the wage pyramid.
