Never heard of being able to choose

Yup. Some have research-only professors, and some expect all professors to teach classes. It really depends on the university.

Ah, I misunderstood. Yeah, that’s common, but not a choice, they are different types of positions, with different fundings usually. You can’t switch between them

Right. I meant "choice" as in professors can work it out with the dean. If the professor doesn't like the answer from the dean, they can shop around for another university.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
