    Reluctant Landl9rd petition to get cronus ampora off my couch 2k16

    He attended a perfectly reputable institution. However, his lack of work ethic (or, really, any work at all) caused his grades to dip below the accepted cutoff for continued attendance. Cronus has elected to take this frustration at his failure out on the entire concept of university altogether.

    I'm not paying for an incomplete answer.

    A professor is a uh, teacher but like one with qualifications? You get your degree from college, and most professors have those, so it's a way of uh, verifying that you know your shit.
    Oh. That explains so much.
    You know community college is a thing right? You could uh, go back and start there instead.

    Deal, then.
    (Kite smiles)
    So, organic reproduction works via combination of genetic material of usually two parental units. This combination results in offspring that is genetically similar to that of the parental units. Due to details of the process, offspring of the same parental units are similar, but not identical.
    "Incest" refers to sexual relationships and combinations of people who are genetically close. How close a relationship needs to be to be considered incestuous varies, but direct line of descent counts in all cases. Branches two generations removed are a common cut-off.
    Sufficient for understanding?

    I dunno. They might be teaching without knowing anything 'cause they want other people to not know things too, or they think it's an easy job, or they don't agree with what's being taught so they wanna teach their own stuff without uh, being honest about it. Or maybe they're doing it 'cause they heard professors make good money, or they're doing it because they like little kids and wanna teach them without having to think about all the, um, "boring" things like math and language and, y'know, learning.

    And stuff like... law I guess, or business stuff. Medical stuff too. Uh, you can prove those, but having to prove it to four hundred people individually every four months would be a uh, huge time waster. It's easier to prove it to someone that's considered trustworthy, and then have them give you a sheet of paper that says you really can do it. Which is what a degree is, it's a sheet of paper, but it's also, uh, proof that you can do the things you say you can in a certain field of study.

    Sure, keep telling yourself that. If it works out for you, whatever.

    Alright, intentional misinformation can have purpose, and mentoring is generally safer than other roles...
    ?????
    That scheme won't work for long unless there are many disconnected places to teach, known liars quickly become untrustworthy and who would pay for false information?
    Yes but anyone raising a sparkling has to mentor anyway?? Specialization might require outgroup mentorship but at that point one should be looking for trusted sources anyways??

    Who mentors four hundred at once????? [She appears honestly shocked at this.]

    And papers can be forged anyway that's a stupid method of verification.
