Argument 140

In this argument the author recommends a raise in salary and a promotion to professor Thomas for the reason that he fears she will leave the university .He also shows us the reasons why professor Thomas deserves these: such as , her classes are big and the high research grants she brings to the university. However, as the result of his illogic statement , the conclusion of his argument is unconvincing.

First, he says that professor Thomas’ classes are among the largest at the university , but that doesn’t mean that she is popular to the students. Maybe the classes she teaches are compulsive to the students, or they are easily for students to pass in the final exam. The author fails to show any testament of the students attending her classes to prove his statement .

Second , the author says that the research grants she brings to the university has the university has exceeded her salary in last two years. But he fails to show us how she spends the money on her research. And , if the money spent is rightly used. In addition, what kind of results her research work has produced. These are all important aspects to show the research ability of professor Thomas. Unfortunately the author fails to mention. So we can’t help questioning the author’s conclusion.
Third , even professor Thomas is good  at her classes and research work , at the same time, she deserves the raise in salary. Does it mean that she is also good at the author of department chairperson? We all know that it’s improper for a scientist to do a administrate job , which will largely reduce the time he or she spends on the research. To our disappointment, the author doesn’t provide us sufficient examples to verify the administrate ability of professor Thomas.

In addition, the author doesn’t show us any of professor Tomas’ attitude toward the raise in salary and the promotion. We don’t know that if she will surely leave the university without a raise and the promotion.

In sum, we sincerely respect the hard working professors and hope their work should be valued. But without some convincing evidences and a coherent argument ,there is nothing we can do.
