Agree with this. Also depends on the level. The higher up in academia you go, I believe the more liberal they become. And really, the higher up in academia you go, the less essential you become. Looking back at my college career, almost all of my professors are people who never had real world experience.
The higher up you go, the less interaction you have with the people you are supposed to be serving (the kids). It's no wonder most top-down programs are shit for the kids, and this is coming from a teacher.
Well there are a lot of them but a high percentage? No, and certainly not running the teacher unions and developing the curriculums.
