I should think I'm going to be a perpetual student.
They, students have a degree of freedom that nobody else has.
I was a Ph. D. student at a very reputable university, I was a Harvard research associate at one of the world's premier leadership institutions.
I was a bike rider, a photographer and a history student, probably in that order. (On his early years)
To encourage more top-caliber students to choose teaching, teachers should be paid a lot more, with starting salaries more in the range of $60,000 and potential earnings of as much as $150,000.
For many students, school is an obligation, not a joy and a privilege. This means you need to ‘sell’ the learning to them.
Every student who enters upon a scientific pursuit, especially if at a somewhat advanced period of life, will find not only that he has much to learn, but much also to unlearn.
Founded when Abraham Lincoln believed education could lead the nation out of its darkest days, Ohio State now provides a powerful platform of interdisciplinary academic programs, world-class scholars, outstanding students, and extensive research capabilities.
University students are rarely able to cope with universals and death is the most embarrassing universal.
We are human beings, not 'students' and 'teacher,' coming together and questioning, looking together, not having made up our minds about what we're looking at, but starting afresh.
. . . to learn and not to do is really not to learn. To know and not to do is really not to know.

If you are giving a graduate course you don't try to impress the students with oratory, you try to challenge them, get them to question you.

It's like the high school production of something you saw at Steppenwolf, with the most gifted students in drama class playing the John Malkovich and Joan Allen roles.
I'm always trying to ask myself both "Who am I as an individual?" and "What are the cultural forces that have made me the person that I am?" How can I understand myself as a cultural creature as well as an individual? I'm really obsessed with that question, and always asking my students to consider it.
People are always asking, "Is this person in front of me the same on the inside as he or she appears to be on the outside? Is there congruence between what's within that person and the words and actions I'm viewing and hearing externally?" Children ask that about their parents; students ask it about their teachers; parishioners ask it about their pastors and priests; employees ask it about their bosses; and in a democracy, citizens ask it about their political leaders.
I was a film student. I became an actor, but I thought I'd be pursuing filmmaking originally.
