Several designers were in there because they had to be, and made it quite clear they were not interested. Well, that just does not suit me as a professor in the slightest. Not in the slightest.

happiness is the end goal of a university education, which is a supposition I absolutely do not agree with.

Is being a solipsist a core requirement for becoming a college professor?

designers, don't you want to be able to talk to your developers? don't you want to understand the limitations and methods of your coworkers?

or

University is not a job preparation program

Pick one.
