I'm seeking the true identity of Professor Staff - he (or she) is the one that gets to teach all of the classes that the other professors teach. Look at a class catalog - most of the schools that I've attended have had this person on their staff and they teach most of the classes. How does this person do it? Time/Warp fields? - David

Much more efficient than even the Japanese. In fact, they are so highly thought of that they are given private dining rooms (Staff cafeteriaas) and so plentiful they must be listed in their own directories. (Staff directory, often alongside the Faculty family.) They even have their own private closets and storage and supply rooms (Staff only). Anthony Prattico pratta@rpi.edu

I think that you're getting them confused with the European branch of the family which spells it 'staph.' Robert
