    The article about ivory towers I found a bit offensive and plain wrong on some fronts. Of course there are bad examples of academics around. However most professors I know work like crazy on their research, teaching and service responsibilities, despite being paid much lower than their counterparts in industry, for love of their subject. Yes, professors often have more flexibility in their hours, but often are working almost every waking minute on projects or academic business.
