who love teaching (why else would they teach)

Professors love doing academic research. Teaching is a requirement for them, not a passion they pursue (at least not for most of them).

Yeah, that makes it even worse.

To be clear, I'm not advocating for not paying living wages to professors, I'm just describing the two systems I know and the results.

I don't know how to get teachers who are up to date with industry and love teaching. You get that when teaching doesn't pay, but it'd be nice if there was a better way.
