Pieces of derivatives stuck together in the same equation? The best examples are second order physics equations like Laplace's equation about elliptics. Good lord! http://www.sst.ph.ic.ac.uk/angus/Lec...ys/node24.html While I see they have actual physical applications, it almost looks like pure math for the sake of pure math! lol Now that I'm actaully more interested in trying to understand this stuff, I'll have to do more googling........ -- Om.

I don't recommend Medical Technology as a degree. For a BS, the starting pay sux. Teaching doesn't pay too badly for the amount a person has to work. I get 40K for 190 days. In El Paso, that's not too shabby. The starting pay is not too much lower. That's the advantage to living in Texas... ;-) El Paso? You have my condolences! Last time I drove thru there, the air was horrible with all the new factories going in over the Rio Grande where the pollution is not regulated. :-( Thanks to NAFTA! It WOULD be nice to have 3 months off in the summer! But, that kind of pay nowadays is just not attracting very many people IMHO... It's too bad as teachers are one of our more valuable resources. They are NOT paid enough! Sorry, OT but a personal soapbox! -- Om. "My mother never saw the irony in calling me a son-of-a-bitch." -Jack Nicholson |

All by itself that explains why teachers aren't highly paid. Supply and demand. There are plenty of people who will do it for less money, therefore schools get away with paying teachers under $100K. I do NOT think teacher quality has fallen over the years. More and more have better and better college educations. I think the source of the problem is what the curiculum has become. I was amazed at what was and wasn't in the curiculum when my daughters went through school compared to when I went through school. After 18 years, I only bring in $1,400 per paycheck after taxes every 2 weeks. I don't recommend Medical Technology as a degree. Schools also churn out far more of them than their are jobs. That drives the price down. My younger daughter went through that program after high school. What a difference if she'd started towards LVN instead. |
