Generally, I concede that all faculty members, instead of spending everyday teaching and instructing students in schools, should spend some time to get more hands-on experience related to the courses. However, there might be a danger if a good balance between working and teaching cannot be striked, which may result in disatisfation of the courses from the students.

The fundamental sharing of ideas with the speaker lies in the very basic purpose of what students should get from their college experience. As many agree, college is a place where new ideas are created and be experimented to be put into practice. Thus, the teachers and instructors should first inform students of the most advanced technologies and theories of the field they are exploring in, so that those young minds could figure out if what comes to their mind is old or new and start to research on it if the discovery steps ahead of time. The best way for the teachers to know the cutting-edge knowledge is to go out to work with people who really have practical experiences. School textbooks dwarfs in front of these social experiences, because comparing to its vast sea of quickly feedbacks of the encountered problems, it is slow in updating speed and restricted concerning the limits of strict thesis style. Therefore, working out is a way for the faculty to update their own knowledge data base which can help the students decide whether the topic they are interested in are worth exploring in.

Another benefit can be attained as the teachers go out to work and at the same time bring in more challenging projects for the students to work on. Since more contacts are reached between the faculty and the companies they are working with, more opportunities such as internship and jobs could be provided for the students. Classroom lectures can be extended to real working experience. Therefore, the students would put the theory into practice and better understand the very basic principles the theory touchs on. It is even more valuable if they find the real experience contradicts with the old conventions, since they can improve the outdated ideas of the field.

More goals can be reached by letting the faculty members working outside only if the emphasis are not be shifted from school teaching to earning breads. It is undeniable that working takes time which, if not controlled, will distract professors' concentration on supervising the students. In China, there are many reported cases that famous professors failed to show up in lectures when they were invited or requested by the companies to deal with business matters. These professors regard earning money rather than serving the students as the priority. In these cases, the aim of working out has been changed. It is no longer a way to catch up with the most advanced knowledge which can serve the students' needs, but rather a way to satisfy the need of an individual.

In conclusion, working outside the academic world is a reliable way for the faculty to get first hand experiences in the field they are discovering in. It help students have a more clear picture of what is going on of the industry. But the concentration, the genuine purpose should only be for the students' benefits. If not, the quality of teaching will undoubtly be effected, thus the idea of teachers going out to get experiences, will turn out to be unwise and distracted from its aim.
