In my experience, the majority of my professors were people who were dedicated and caring about their work. Previously, I thought that maybe I had gotten lucky with my instructors in the classes I attended, or maybe I was a more open-minded person than those who criticized our educators. Now I see that teachers are the scapegoats for other complications beyond their control. Even though some are no longer of a higher caliber, the reason for this decline could be discouraging, due to their limited resources and widespread lack of respect year after year. The government may not be willing to reverse past changes, but today the system intended to prepare today's children to become tomorrow's adults is being annexed by global giants businesses that strive to achieve ever greater profits to meet their needs.
