Brilliance by Discipline
Instapundit linked this study to explore different ideas among students about male vs. female professors. I want to point out, instead, the good things it says about philosophy professors! They are the most brilliant, above average on funny, and below average on both meanness and rudeness.

WE are left to our own prejudices whether this represents student bias or real tendencies.
Well, it only can measure student reactions; though there might be more than mere bias behind those reactions. The professors themselves aren’t the only factor provoking the reactions, too. It may also have something to do with the degree to which being introduced to philosophy inspires, compared with narrower disciplines.
