I take exception to some of these:

Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.

I went to a small college (24 civils, 14 mech and a handfule of electroweenies) and all of our professors were accomplished engineers before becoming professors. All were prior military (All the civil profs were in-country Viet Nam Era combat engineers).We had no non-english speaking TA's. One of my prof's was the on the team that came up with the cooling tower idea for the Alaska pipeline.

13. An 80.1% can be an A+.

A 37 can be the high grade in Thermodynamics class.

I made nothing less than an 80 on any thermo or heat transfer class. Thermo is fun!
