> Teaching is the reason why professors are there Repeating this line over and over does not make it so. (Tenure-track CS) professors at Harvard are not there to (primarily) teach (undergraduate) courses. This is just a fact. > If you can't/don't want to teach you should be a professional researcher and admit that Professional researchers do not typically advise doctoral students. So professors at research universities are doing a lot of teaching that someone at an industry lab probably would not be doing. Classroom teaching is not the only form of teaching, and professional researchers do not grow on trees. > Via tuition, etc... fraudulent to the students paying tutition Tenure-track professors at places like Harvard fund themselves through grants, not undergraduate tuition dollars.
