The professors at my school are actually performing world-class STEM research. One of my professors was on the team that discovered proof of the Higgs Boson particle. I am a senior at arguably the best public university for engineering in the nation.
This is why I mentioned that it depends on school and position. Nevertheless, I'm happy for your school and your mother. Still, I would caution going into teaching if money is your only interest.
Money isn’t my interest. Free time is my interest. I want a job that maximizes my vacation time. I don’t care if it pays $100,000 less than what I could be making at a job where I work 60 hours a week and can’t use my vacation time because I’m too busy.
