Let’s Smash the College Admissions Process

Fascinating how your knee jerk bigotry (once again) takes personal supposition and conjecture as fact ... I refer to your last sentence.

If you and your like minded compadres applied like scrutiny to the current cabal of clowns in the GOP congress, things might be a little better in this country. Carry on.

Knee jerk bigotry? That bitch is incompetent.
 
The difference I see is Lightfoot could be considered to be a failure in office and during her previous positions. As an assistant US attorney she got a formal reprimand / warning from the 7th Circuit Court, pretty much ending that career.

Odd, Lightfoot did not even lose her job, much less her career over the disagreement over extradition. She got a criminal extradited to Norway, had a judge give her a warning over the case(most aggressive prosecutors will get a warning sooner or later), and then got a promotion. She only left that job three years later when she got a better job. Her legal career continued until she decided to switch to politics.
 
The fact is Lightfoot is fully educationally credentialed to teach a university course, while trump is not.

Nonsense, Walter.

Trump attended the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, graduating in May 1968 with a B.S. in economics.

Beetle-juice was a total failure as the mayor of Chicago,

trump does not have the credentials to teach a university course, which is a graduate degree. he has a bachelors degree, and that is all. Lightfoot has a Juris Doctor, so does have the credentials.

These are just facts.

No, they are not.


There are quite a few people who wish to teach at a college or university, and they may not have time in their lives for a full doctorate. Teachers at most college hold doctorates, but there are many instances in which teachers with a master's degree may work at that level.



Can I teach college with just a bachelor's?

Every state requires that you have at least a bachelor's degree, and you will need to pass a background check. After that, you'll most likely have to take your state's teaching exams. In some states, you will be required to earn your master's degree soon after you start teaching

Yes, a graduate degree. You can get an exception to teach with less than a graduate degree, but it is difficult and rare. It would mean that you are not fully credentialed, but an exception has been made for you.

Back to the facts: Lightfoot is fully educationally credentialed to teach a university course, and trump is not.

Wrong.

I am correct. You can get an exception, but that is an exception to the fact you do not have the right credentials.

There is no link, and your claim makes little sense. There might be some situations where you would need to take a "state's teaching exam" to teach at a university, but it certainly would not be a requirement in most situations. Literally your post is just bizarre.

Did you go to college?

Nol, you are wrong,l Walter...as usual.

Every state requires that you have at least a bachelor's degree...
 
and you will need to pass a background check

Why on earth would I need to pass a state background check to teach at a private university? Earl is so disconnected from reality, I really cannot understand what he is saying. Can he provide some sort of link so we can try to unravel what he is saying?

Finally tracked down Earl's link. It is to an article on how to be a public school teacher, not a university professor. He has been wasting our time all along.

Not quite sure where he got the question, because that is not in the article.

https://www.wgu.edu/heyteach/articl...quires that you,soon after you start teaching.

States do not set the requirements to teach at private universities. There is not a state background check, or a state teacher's exam to teach at private universities... Least not in the USA.

Yes, I know that you have reading comprehension problems, Walter.

"Teaching in a college generally requires at least a master's degree in a specialty, although in some cases, colleges accept teachers with bachelor's degrees, particularly if the teaching candidate can demonstrate expertise and considerable experience in the field in which she wants to teach. Students in graduate programs who are working toward a graduate degree can teach at the college level under the supervision of a faculty mentor. Most of the classes that master's or doctorate candidates can teach are introductory courses."

Walter:

I provided a link proving that you are wrong, Walter.

Poor Walter.
 
I had a ATC friend who taught at the old Southern Polytechnic State University, who only had a double "E" (BSEE).
 
Yes, I know that you have reading comprehension problems, Walter.

No, we worked out where your disconnect from reality was. You were confusing teaching at a private university with teaching a public K through 12 school. There are no state teaching exams, or state background checks for teaching at a private university. If you had included a link, we would have realized your mistake earlier.

Earl, have you ever been to college? I am still trying to figure out how you confused teaching at an elementary school with being a college professor. They are two very different things.

"Teaching in a college generally requires at least a master's degree in a specialty, although in some cases, colleges accept teachers with bachelor's degrees"

Earl is now repeating back to me what I said. The credentials you need to teach at a college is a graduate degree, but you can get an exemption to allow you to teach without the correct credentials. So Lightfoot has the correct credentials, and trump would need an exemption to teach without the credentials.

Again, there is no state teaching exam, or state background check in America.
