Chris: Tell us, Professor Grant, What are your primary duties as a professor?

Professor Grant: Well, I do a lot of research and writing. It’s rough being an associate professor. It’s publish or perish.

Chris: So you spent a lot of time in your office?

Professor Grant: Yes, but I also have to prepare class motes, give lectures, hold office hours. Teaching is an important part of being a professor.

Chris: With all those responsibilities, you must make a lot of money.

Professor Grant: I wish. Actually, I spend a lot of tome applying foe grants to fund my research. Then I can offer assistantships and scholarships to the worthy graduate.

Chris: I see why they call you “the boss”. But being a professor sounds pretty competitive.

Professor Grant: Actually, I think you were in one of my classes…

Chris: Um….I think you’re mistaken, Professor Grant!

Professor Grant: No, I remember very clearly now! You owe me an essay!

Chris: Sorry, I have too much work to do for the Student Union Newsletter, and I have to work two jobs to pay for school.

Professor Grant: So you get an F in this course.
