I'm pretty sure this is why we as TAs join the union as a rule. Getting sued is a pretty scary thing. My buddy here said that is why he is part of the union.

- gcheong 18y agoReally? How often do teachers and TA's get sued? More than anyone else? Does that cover any lawsuit or just certain kinds?
- steveplace 18y agoTeachers: a lot more than you think. My wife has had threats to go to the schoolboard for retarded stuff (crazy cheerleading parents). And we know a couple that needed short-term legal counsel. For TA's, I could imagine problems with patents, pharma, and medical. I guess you could rig up the equivalent of malpractice insurance for certain fields to get around the union problem, but the current solution is the best available.
