Succeeding in academia is a two way street. The students learn from the teacher, but the teacher also learns so much from the interactions and developments of their students. From my own teaching experiences - at the secondary level, teaching at IU, and most recently as visiting lecturer of law in Vietnam - I appreciate the interaction between students and their teachers.
Our course enjoyed an evening with one of our professors. A small world it really is, he knows my law professor in the States personally from their meetings in Europe. We enjoyed discussions, both on the academic level, but also on a social level, that helped all of us understand each other and get to know everyone a bit better.
In November, one of my MBA professors will be traveling to Holland, and we plan to meet in Rotterdam. These are all proof of how small this world really is!
