.... many people think that they know what would make a person a great high school teacher though they have never taught and never hired someone to teach. They would probably be ticked off if I were to suggest how their universities should hire professors.Would they be as ticked off if you suggested that university professors be hired on the basis of a statistic like the quotient of number of papers published in refereed journals and number of cites in refereed journals with a suitable multiplier for the count accumulated in journals of the first water - Science, Nature, NEJM and the like, and a hugely bigger multiplier for Nobel awards in any field?
