最近發生的一些事情，讓我想到以前在當研究生的時候看到的一篇好笑的文章，去google了一下，果然找到了。
題目是：Why God Never Received Tenure at any University （為何神在任何大學都無法拿到終身教授聘書？）
1. He had only one major publication.（他只有一篇主論文）
2. It was in Hebrew.（這主論文還是用希伯來文寫的）（註：世界一流的期刊，都是英文的）
3. It had no references.（這個主論文，沒有參考文獻）
4. It wasn't published in a refereed journal.（這主論文，也不是在有審查制度的期刊裡發表）
5. Some even doubt he wrote it himself.（有些人甚至認為不是他寫的）
6. It may be true that he created the world, but what has he done since then?（或許他真的創造了世界，但從那個時候到現在，他還有新的研究發表嗎？）
7. His cooperative efforts have been quite limited.（他沒有跟多少人合作）
8. The scientific community has had a hard time replicating his results.（其他研究者無法重複他的實驗）
9. He never applied to the Ethics Board for permission to use human subjects.（他也沒有跟「人體試驗委員會」申請人體試驗許可）
10. When one experiment went awry he tried to cover it up by drowning the subjects.（實驗搞砸的時候，他乾脆把實驗結果淹死）
11. When subjects didn't behave as predicted, he deleted them from the sample .（對於不合於預期的實驗結果，通常他都直接刪除）
12. He rarely came to class, just told students to read the Book.（他很少到課堂授課，都只叫學生回家讀書）
13. Some say he had his son teach the class.（有時甚至叫兒子代課）
14. He expelled his first two students for learning.（他把頭兩個學生給開除了）
15. Although there were only ten requirements, most students failed his tests.（雖然他的考試只有十題，但是大部分學生都考不過）
16. His office hours were infrequent and usually held on a mountaintop.（他的office hours太少，而且常常都在山頂這種太偏僻的地方）
這篇文章存在很久了（從我當研究生到現在...），會想到只是想要借用這篇文章來指出一些高教體制不合理的地方，如果有信徒覺得不開心，在此道歉，別太當真啊...
