    No. People are evil and think up different kinds of scams alla time by themselves.

    Not really, we do lecture against anything which would get you indicted and sent to Club Fed.  Now a lot of those guys do find ways to try and get around the rules.  I have heard different Stats and the catch rate.  I have also heard different Stats on the release rate. 

    When I have occasionally taught a course I do have a lecture on "Catch and Release".  It is my best attended class, consequently I will presume there a lot of aspiring Felons.  Now most faculty are too dumb and naive to do more than sleep with a student.

    Yes, we were taught that those were not legal practices.

    Generally the Grad Student, Adjunct or Prof teaches the class.  It is usually in the required teaching elements for the term.

    My PHD work was in Consumer Behavior, so Marketing, Consumer Behavior and International Business.  Two Minnesota Universities - evening MBA program years ago. That was as an adjunct making a pittance.  Guest lecturer occasionally University Wien & Webster. 

    I have not taught a full Term in a few years.  I do work with the Conference Board occasionally when they need a guest lecturer.  My career has gotten to be a bit busy.

    Stu I do believe however Joes would have paid better.  Having a beverage while giving a lecture or grading tests & papers would have been sublime.  Do note the Corps, aka Dept of the Navy paid for my education
