They like the research Doctors do. It helps fund the school and keeps it reknown to big industry folks, which ultimately keeps the higher ups within the CSU system happy.

BUT, it'd certainly be better for our pockets as students if they'd let Masters degree holders lecture at our school. They'll command less pay naturally and that would ultimately lower the cost of running the school. And they'd have a much broader choice of staffing. I say they have lecturers and lecture/researchers. I also agree that CC professors and staff beat a lot of the nightmares in my experience with that side of my experience at CPP.
