For it is the duty of the good man to teach others the good that you could not work because of the malignity of the times or of fortune, so that when many are capable of it, someone of them more loved by heaven will be able to work it.

Edufactory and surplus value
'Are we bad for wanting to make a profit? ... Call it surplus if you're squeamish' http://www.edu-factory.org/
As if illness porn weren't enough. Perhaps a short vignette about a lecturer who can only achieve orgasm through having the vituperations of students s/he has made miserable recited to him/her, with all mis-spellings carefully enunciated?
apologies - the line is from UK University Vice-Chancellor (ie the guys - its usually guys - who run things) and the "edufactory" is a new coinage for the extraction of value from universities
Got it, thanks. I'm familiar with the edu-factory project, I just wasn't sure where the quote came from - if it was from the edu-factory people or someone else. cheers,

Um, you know I meant the V-C's powerpoints on the UCU site, don't you...
I don't want to know about your pomo transgressions, next thing it will be QAA reports...
Or student feedback forms! Mmmm...

So I'm a bit thick - I don't get the title of this post or the line you put up under the image. Can you explain what you mean, please?
cheers,
