What makes a professor at a university? Go to college for some BS major, can't get a job in the real world. Blame your lack of education, get masters degree, can't get a real job. Figure get your Phd and be a perpetual student to buy you more time. End up teaching impressionable 18year olds on how America sucks. I have seen it many times. Not all professors, I know 2 personally (both very left wing) who had real world jobs, but many are what I first described.
