"When I look into the future, I don't see signals that the balance [between teaching and research] will be maintained. And I think research will win out. This institution thinks that because in the past it has cared about teaching, it can take it for granted. And I don't think you can do that."
"Dartmouth talks a great list. Its promotional materials inevitably convey the image that small classes and close student-faculty interaction are top priorities.
