Will Tyler White (Green)
As a student at Michigan State University he learned firsthand how Teaching Assistants with poor English skills made it difficult to understand complex subjects like statistical analysis. He also learned that TA's had little or no job security and were underpaid for the amount of work they did compared to that of professors. The other important lesson he says he had learned is that some degrees are more valuable than others, but little information is available to quantify that and guide the selection of which major to pursue. As an entrepreneur for forty years, his real world business experience is an asset many academics lack. |
