There have been many over the years. Originally players had to be formally invited by existing players. Later there was the Pro Ticket series then the game went open, then there were qualifying schools and play-offs and a Challenge Tour and an Open Tour and the PIOS and...well, here we are with Q School.
The format is very simple: anyone can enter if they pay £1,000. There are three tournaments. The semi-finalists in each will qualify for the world ranking circuit in 2011/12. 124 players have entered.
As John Parrott said on the BBC last week, there are a lot of players who feel they may be good enough to be professionals. Now is the time to find out.
The entries include new, young players, some old stagers and several players from outside the UK.
It starts on Wednesday with the likes of David Gray, a former Scottish Open champion, Lee Walker, who once reached the Crucible quarter-finals, and Thanawat Tirapongpaiboon, the Thai teenager who made a 147 on the main tour last season in action.
Luca Brecel is also listed, although it's been reported he has received a World Snooker wildcard (he would have been on the circuit last season after winning the European amateur title but was too young).
Mike Hallett and Tony Knowles, two of snooker's leading lights in the 1980s/early 90s, will play each other in the first round.
Reanne Evans, the women's world champion, who failed to win a main tour match last season, faces Sachin Plaha.
It's an eclectic line-up. Mohammed Raoof, an Indian doctor, will play Craig Barber.
Thai legend James Wattana faces young Sean O'Sullivan.
Jason Tart, a nephew of Stephen Hendry, tackles James Loft.
It's hard to predict exactly who will come through all of this but I'd be surprised if eight or nine of the qualifiers weren't players who had already been on the main tour, and some of these probably on it last season.
Kurt Maflin, who impressed in qualifying for the China Open, would be a likely candidate.
This system is tough for players, say, unwell but sport is tough full stop. If you look at the top players of today, everyone of them has come through a qualifying system of some sort – with both merits and negative aspects – and they have all reached the top through their talent and application.
The Q School is certainly a cheaper option than the PIOS and even if players are unsuccessful they can still enter the 12 PTCs.
This is a little like school exams, with all the nerves that they involve, so I wish all players the best of luck.
34 comments:
Personally the q-school should stay and they should allow players who may have not entered q-chool or couldnt make the semis to have a chance to qualify for ranking events by paying per event. That way Q-school will be cheaper, which i think will be fair. Also players can try to qualify for their local tournaments. Good for international players.
- 5:19 pm
have heard there may be as many as 4 wildcard spots available and that they have been offered to:
Pengfei (or maybe Li Hang)
an Indian player
if there are any walkovers in round 1 od q school this may give some clues to these rumours.
- 5:20 pm

Be delighted if Wattana got one, although not sure about the validity of such a decision.
The Thai star actually hit the highest break of the World Championship this year, if you include the pre-qualifying phase.
- 6:26 pm
I think I'd do away with tour qualifiers and Q-school and back-end the PTC onto the Main Tour. Reduce the main tour to 32, and make tournaments last 64 with 32 qualifiers drawn from the top 32 on the PTC. That way players who "lose" their main tour spot wouldn't have to wait a season to get back on, and in theory anyone could enter the PTC, have a good run and play in tournaments. No doubt an anon will come along and call me dimmer than blackout or something, but it would make the tour more open for everyone without having to hold masses of qualifiers for each event.
- 6:40 pm
Yay, Tony Knowles!!!! The eighties personified.
- 9:10 pm
Kind of a strange way to put it: That the SEMIFINALISTS go through.
The semifinals and finals of each Q-tournament won't actually be played, so in fact, what we have is twelve different Q-tournaments with the WINNERS going through!
- 6:54 am
I wouldn't dismiss Betty's suggestion, but the nett result would effectively be the game going open again.
I would like to see something similar, but instead would like to see a PTC style event played prior to each tournament, with the last 32 qualifiers playing players ranked 65-96 in the first round proper.
Winners would play those ranked 33-64 with the victors playing the top 32.
These qualifying competitions would be self financing with entry fees and could be played during invitation tournaments, thereby using very little calendar time.
The PTC's could still be played, but regular ranking winners would recieve 10,000 points, the UK and World Open(upgraded to best of 17 and held overseas) would provide 14000 for the winner, and the W orld Champ recieving 18000.
These increased tariffs would allow successful players the luxury of not having to enter the PTC's.
With far more players now involved, there would be even more fluidity of the system, and make it even easier for the cream to rise to the top.
- 9:04 am
in fact that is not a bad call at all

Lucky Lucky.

Apparently, James Wattana will be on the main tour, as Sean O'Sullivan got a bye in the first round, twittering Wattana got a wildcard.
- 9:04 am
I remember Lucky from the British unis snooker championship a few years ago (think he went to Sheffield?). He was easily playing a few levels above anyone else there - be interesting to see how he does in this. Good luck to him.

Damn, now there won't be any snooker until september...
Oh wait, Barry Hearn is in charge! Get ready to chalk those cues fellas, we are about ready to go!

Nice to see Mitchell Mann make progress.
The most interesting result was the exit of Li Hang. Given the poor standard yesterday, would have fancied Hang to make an impact on cue school, especially after his confidence boosting run at the recent China Open.

he didnt want to hang around

The smart money will be on Tian Pengfei securing a card.
Just looked at the World Snooker site and no mention of these wildcard decisions but guess the absence of Brecel, Wattana and Vatnani effectively confirms the selection.

Hi Dave ,Will the losing players in Q-school get free admission to the ptc events? It seems to be suggested at the end of this article. Probably they should
- 12:00 pm
- Dave H said...
No they won't.
Any comments submitted between Wednesday and last night were automatically deleted by Blogger which had a major problem for this time.

I think it would be very decent of World Snooker to allow them free entry into the PTC. It must be pretty sickening to cough up £1000 and not qualify.
- 1:05 pm
- Dave H said...
It's not a charity, it's a business.
It's also supposed to be about excellence. If you're not good enough, bad luck.
- 1:08 pm
I thought it may be good for giving free ptc entries, as it will increase the number of players playing the ptcs (which in turn increases the validity of the tournaments) and gives the players more experience. Many players in the q-school havnt even played an single ptc. If they get more experience they feel more confident and then they may enter next year. Meaning more money for WS.
- 1:52 pm
I see what you are saying Dave, you can't complain about losing you grand since you get the same chance as everyone else, but there are probably many players who are good enough though who won't make the cut, that is just the reality of professional sport; another day and the result might be reversed. I think there is a place for meeting the "just misses" halfway: someone who reaches the quarter-finals and just misses the cut probably deserves a break. It's World Snooker's prerogative of course, but personally I think it's a good idea if they do it because you can look at that £1000 as more of a career investment in the line of college tutition fees than say a failed gamble.
- 2:07 pm
- Dave H said...
But surely it would be crazy if someone not good enough to be a professional had free entry to the PTCs while the world champion had to pay to play.
It's a level playing field: the opportunities are there but, as in any sport, it's survival of the fittest.
- 4:35 pm
It all depends on how you look at it: another way is that winners get on to the tour, and the losing quarter-finalists win back their Q school entry fee as a runners-up prize (which World Snooker kindly re-invests as their PTC entry fees!). It's not like the world champion pays £1200 and the near misses have paid nothing — they've already handed over a thousand quid! There can only be 12 losing quarter-finalists at most, and if your quarter-final match goes to the wire it's a bit harsh that you don't get any more than the chap who went out in round 1! There is nothing inherently unfair about an "all or nothing" approach so I don't criticise the WSA for it, but I think there is room for a "middle" prize i.e. 12 players pay their entry onto the tour, and the next 12 pay their entry onto the PTC.
- 5:04 pm
why on earth would you give free entry to the PTCs for losing players (or any players for that matter) - more entries would mean more running costs for world snooker in terms of time taken, officials required, hotels, venue costings etc
No one forced anyone to chuck away a grand and enter Q school.
As David says it is a business not a charity.
In Barry's own words "Winners take the cheques, losers make their own arrangements."
- 11:57 pm
betty, stop talking absolute rubbish
you pay to qualify.
if you fail, you fail
if you give qf some free entries that wouldnt be fairer. some players could have a much harder "half" of the draw and not get near the QF at all, but theyre still better than some who get to the QFs.
the criteria is set out before the start. you pay you play. you win, you get the prize. you dont, tough!
- 12:38 pm
This is a sport steeped in British tradition, not an American motivational course, Anon, so quit embarrassing yourself — at least Dave and Janie based their views on valid points!
Regarding Janie's point, most businesses invest in recruitment not the other way around. I think it's ok to cover the costs of staging these things with an entry fee, but I'd be very surprised if it costs £124,000 to stage; I bet not even a pro tournament minus prize money costs that much! If World Snooker is profiteering from recruitment then that isn't a proper business model, so I honestly don't see why the excess cash can't be returned as prizes or entry fees in lieu. If that is such a rubbish idea, I presume you back ending prize money in the qualifying rounds? If you don't qualify you've had your chance, but you weren't good enough, so tough luck! It's an absolute joke if the 100k or so generated from amateurs is paid out on World Snooker shares, or used to top up Ronnie's appearance fee, or Steve Davis' boardroom salary.
- 4:30 pm
its not a british sport
the sooner you realise that the better
we pander to uk based players enough
tradition means nothing to me, except the WC
youre well known for spouting rubbish on here, along with Jamie B, but even he makes more sense that you these days.
you made one good point on here and everyone posting after it seemed surprised
take a look in the mirror before you think others should be embarassed
- 8:45 pm
- jamie brannon said...
I agree with Dave but at first thought £1000 was a little steep for just one match (realise now it's three) given a lot of players may not be that affluent, which slightly contravenes that it is a level playing field in that sense anyway.
However, in general, guess anyone with enough talent to be a professional would find the money somehow.
Plus to have toal fairness is sadly impossible but we should always strive to create as much as possible. I think this initative does this. I would imagine the long-winded PIOS circuit cost players more money with the hotel and travelling costs spread over eight events.
Li Hang was a shock result! Beaten as Dave said by Ronnie O'Sullivan's protege.

UK must keep Trident nuclear deterrent - David Cameron
The UK would be "foolish" to abandon Trident in the face of the potential threat of nuclear attack from North Korea and Iran, David Cameron has said.
Writing in the Daily Telegraph, he said the country still needed the "ultimate weapon of defence".
The prime minister said the nuclear danger had "increased" since the end of the Cold War.
The Lib Dems want the UK to explore a cheaper alternative to the Tories' £20bn plan to replace Trident.
Mr Cameron is committed to maintaining a round-the-clock submarine-based nuclear missile system of the kind Britain has had since the late 1960s.
But the Lib Dems have insisted the coalition carry out a review of cheaper submarine or land-based options, including abandoning round-the-clock patrols.
'Nuclear blackmail'
Labour, which was committed to a like-for-like replacement for Trident when it was in power, has now said it will examine the outcome of that review.
The prime minister also stressed his commitment to Trident, which is based on the Clyde, during a visit to the west of Scotland.
"The world we live in is very uncertain, very dangerous: there are nuclear states and one cannot be sure of how they will develop," he told workers at a defence contractor in Glasgow.
"We cannot be sure on issues of nuclear proliferation, and to me having that nuclear deterrent is quite simply the best insurance policy that you can have, that you will never be subject to nuclear blackmail."
Mr Cameron had earlier visited HMS Victorious, one of the Royal Navy's four Vanguard-class submarines which keep Trident nuclear missiles continuously at sea, which is returning from its 100th patrol.
"I wanted to come on board and congratulate everyone who's been involved in those hundred tours and to say a big thank you to all those people so work so hard to keep us safe," he said.
The Scottish National Party has said it would not allow nuclear weapons to be based in Scotland, should next year's referendum support independence, a move that would potentially add billions to the cost of replacing Trident.
In the Daily Telegraph article, which was published ahead of his trip, Mr Cameron said the "highly unpredictable and aggressive" regime in North Korea was developing ballistic missiles that could become a threat to Britain.
He said: "We need our nuclear deterrent as much today as we did when a previous British government embarked on it over six decades ago.
"Of course, the world has changed dramatically. The Soviet Union no longer exists. But the nuclear threat has not gone away.
"In terms of uncertainty and potential risk it has, if anything, increased."
Mr Cameron said: "North Korea recently conducted its third nuclear test and could already have enough fissile material to produce more than a dozen nuclear weapons.
"Last year North Korea unveiled a long-range ballistic missile which it claims can reach the whole of the United States. If this became a reality it would also affect the whole of Europe, including the UK."
The prime minister questioned whether anyone would "seriously argue that it would be wise for Britain, faced with this evolving threat today, to surrender our deterrent".
"My judgement is that it would be foolish to leave Britain defenceless against a continuing, and growing, nuclear threat," he said.
Defence work
Shadow defence minister Kevan Jones said it was "absolutely right and necessary" for the UK to retain an independent nuclear deterrent but the cost needed to be taken into account.
"World events demonstrate that in an unpredictable era our country needs the ultimate security guarantee," he said.
"The precise nature of the deterrent must be judged on meeting military capability requirements and cost."
Mr Cameron has also spoken about the role of Scottish companies in supplying the UK's armed forces.
He described the work as more "secure" when it was as part of the United Kingdom, he said "defence jobs matter".
The SNP has claimed it would be a mistake for the UK government to place the Trident nuclear programme at the heart of its case for the union.
Defence spokesman Angus Robertson said: "The (Scottish) parliament and 80% of the people of Scotland want to get rid of Trident, and the obscene waste of up to £100bn it represents at a time of austerity and savage welfare cuts from Westminster."
Trident's Faslane base currently employs 6,700 military and civilian workers with that figure due to rise to 8,200 by 2022.
Meanwhile, the US has announced it is moving an advanced missile defence system to the Pacific island of Guam - where it has a significant military presence - amid heightened tensions on the Korean peninsula.
It came as North Korea said the use of nuclear weapons by its military had been ratified.
North Korea has threatened attacks on the US and South Korea in recent weeks.

A Hendersonville man — initially charged with first-degree murder in the 2011 unprovoked slaying of a migrant worker — pleaded guilty Monday to voluntary manslaughter and was sentenced to 10-13 years in prison.
A Hendersonville man — initially charged with first-degree murder in the 2011 unprovoked slaying of a migrant worker — pleaded guilty Monday to voluntary manslaughter and discharging a firearm into an occupied dwelling.
Jonathan Chad Walker, 36, was sentenced to 10-13 years and six months in prison. He will get credit for the year and nearly seven months he has spent in jail awaiting trial.
Sighs of relief filled the packed courtroom as the judge recommended Walker for enrollment in the Department of Corrections' Advanced Supervised Release program. The order means he may be out of prison in about seven years.
The goal of the program is to reduce the likelihood that qualified inmates will reoffend by having them participate in risk reduction exercises. Walker had no history of violence or criminal activity before Oct. 4, 2011, when attorneys say he shot a stranger in the head in an "alcoholic blackout."
Prosecutors said that witnesses at the Southernaire Motel said Walker had been drinking heavily and walking around the motel with a gun. Walker admitted to investigators he had also taken hydrocodone and clonazepam — both medications that had been prescribed to him by his doctors. He was not sure of the amount he took.
His attorney, Rodney Hasty, said that those medications "do not interact well with alcohol."
Assistant District Attorney Doug Pearson said that Walker knocked on the door of room number 1 around 8 p.m. The room was occupied by at least five migrant workers who had retired for the night after a long day of picking apples, according to Pearson. Thirty-six-year-old Thomas Tinajero answered the door, and Walker asked him for a light.
As Tinajero started to hand it to him, "the defendant raised a weapon and shot him in the doorway," Pearson said. Witnesses said Walker then dropped his 9-mm handgun in the parking lot as he walked to his car and drove away, he added. Neighbors found Walker in their yard nearby, standing outside of his vehicle with his hands on his head. They called 911.
Tinajero later died from his injuries at Mission Hospital.
Walker wept in court Monday as he apologized for the crime he still has trouble completely remembering. He remembers the doorway. He remembers a man standing in the doorway and then a loud bang.
He told Judge Alan Thornburg that he plans to spend the rest of his life answering a call to remind others of the devastation that can come from drinking and drugs.
His family cried as Hasty asked those in the audience, who came to support his client, to stand. The pews shook as a crowd of nearly 200 — most from Walker's Trinity Baptist Church in Asheville — stood. Each one was tagged with a green ribbon in honor of Walker. Each one gave a commitment before the judge that they would stand in support of him — a host of volunteers to keep him on the right track.
Pearson said that Walker told investigators as much as he could remember. "During the course of the investigation he cooperated completely with law enforcement officers and gave a full statement with what he could recall," Pearson said.
"This is one of the most baffling cases that I've ever seen," Hasty said. "This is not something that you could ever imagine him doing."
When trying to "piece together" a motive behind the senseless, unprovoked killing, Hasty said, the legal team looked at Walker's mental and physical state at the time.
Hasty said that his client was "extremely intoxicated" that night and tested at a blood-alcohol level of .18 (more than twice the legal limit of intoxication) nearly four hours after the shooting.
"He was in an alcoholic blackout at the time" of the incident), Hasty said. "He doesn't even remember actually pointing the gun, firing the gun. He doesn't remember much before or after that. I mean, it's just sort of a haze, and he just remembers little bits and pieces of it."
The statement of a witness, David Bennett, helps clear up some of the fog, he said.
Alarmed by Walker's open display of his gun, Bennett told police that he asked Walker to take the clip out and put it in his pocket. He asked Walker to give him the bullet from its chamber. Walker gave him the bullet, but kept the clip in. Bennett repeated his plea.
"Mr. Bennett stated that he didn't think that it was clear yet so he asked him to actually take the clip out and clear the chamber again. And Chad did that. He took the clip out and cleared the chamber of the bullet, and so the gun was empty," Hasty said.
Bennett returned to his room, and minutes later, he told police, he heard a knock on his door. "When he opened it, he saw the same man with the gun standing in a military stance, pointing the gun directly at his head," Hasty said, adding that after Walker saw Bennett's reaction, he "started giggling and laughing and walked away."
Minutes later, he knocked on Tinajero's door, but his gun was no longer empty.
Hasty said that the family hired Dr. Tony Shira, a respected psychologist, to conduct a "full psych evaluation" on Walker. The evaluation revealed that "Mr. Walker's psychological makeup would be consistent with somebody that would have a tendency to dissociate under times of stress. Mr. Walker was clearly under significant stress for a number of months before this incident."
He said that Walker was recovering from an injury, was having "marital trouble" and was frustrated after graduating at the top of his class from the fire academy that he still could not gain employment after a year and a half on the job hunt. He said that Walker "turned to substances" to cope.
Shira, he said, agreed that the episode on Oct. 4, 2011, was "consistent with an alcoholic blackout."
"There was no reason for him to actually pull the trigger and deliberately shoot and kill this man," Hasty said. "He was going for the reaction, not the result."
Out of the packed courtroom, Hasty chose four people to speak in support of his client.
"Most defendants have one parole officer. Every green ribbon out here will be a parole officer (for Walker)," said Pastor Ralph Sexton Jr. of Trinity Baptist.
Another community member, Davis Clemmons, told the court that he has known Walker 19 years and has visited him in jail 72 times. He has "so much potential in his life," Clemmons said, adding that Walker is "well respected in the unit."
Walker's wife and mother begged the court for mercy, testifying between sobs to his kind-hearted nature and his lifelong desire to serve his community.
"I know from the bottom of my heart he will be forever changed," his mother, Karen Walker, said.
A chorus of sniffles filled the room as Walker stood to address the court.
"Nothing can excuse the fact that my actions led to Tinajero's death," he said, trembling with tears. "Today, I come before you, your honor, asking for mercy, for the chance to take this tragedy and turn it into something good."
Walker plans to refocus his life on helping others around him.
"I've felt this is my calling. I want to show people God's love for them and let them know that through his help, they too can overcome these issues before it has a chance to become a tragedy like this one," he said.

And, seriously, imagine what it would be like to wake up one morning and BE the staffer who knows that later that day, s/he would have to don a clammy, padded nylon ersatz elephant skin and then sit in a chair while Callista drones through Sweet Land of Liberty for the umpteenth time.
But this... this is how the Gingrich campaign is spending its time these days, by sending Callista to elementary schools and tiny college Republican club meetings in Rhode Island. It's almost like our beloved Moon Goddess, once at Newt's side at every stop, has become the "Where's Waldo?" of the 2012 campaign. Fun!
By the way, did you know that they have a great flickr feed? Yeah, me neither. It's brimming with fab Callistapix!
Her hairdo is just a little longer, a little looser, less spherical; she needs to tighten that coiffure up!
Oh, right, and Newt got bitten by a penguin, which proves that the best jokes are the obscure ones that don't have to have punchlines.

A seemingly uncooperative bank machine turns out to be an angelic ATM.
- Posted on Jun 27, 2012
The bank I frequent has a drive-through ATM, which is convenient because it saves me from having to get out and wait in a long teller line inside.
For years, I've followed the same routine: I pull up to the machine, make my deposits or withdrawals, then drive over and park in a spot about 50 feet away, underneath a big old stately shade tree, while I tuck my money in my wallet and put away my receipts. Quick and easy.
One windy summer morning I had a lot of errands to run and was low on cash. So I drove over to my bank, waited patiently behind another car, then pulled up to the ATM. I put the car in park and slipped my card into the slot as usual. But the machine immediately spat it back out. "Cannot read card," the screen read.
That's strange, I thought. Maybe I'd put the card in the wrong way. I tried again. Again the card shot back out. "Cannot read card."
I flipped the card over and inspected the magnetic strip. It sure looked fine. I couldn't find any deep scratches or defects.
I rubbed it gently against my shirt in case there was any dirt, and tried one more time. Spat out again. "Cannot read card."
Now I was getting annoyed at the delay in my morning. I really didn't want to go inside the bank for a withdrawal. Judging by all the cars parked in the lot, I would have to wait a while.
"What's going on here, Lord?" I muttered.
Crack! What was that? I turned toward the sound. The leaves of the stately old shade tree by the parking lot shook violently.
Snap! I watched as the trunk split right down the middle and the right part of the tree calved off to the side, crashing to the ground. Right in my favorite parking spot. I could see the exposed inner trunk, clearly rotted through.
I stared in shock, until a car that had pulled up behind me gave me a polite little beep.
On autopilot, I tried my ATM card again. The screen popped up, asking me what I'd like to do.
Deposit? Withdraw? Too bad there wasn't a button to give thanks.

Kim Talon of JAN — Crush of the Day
The sexy and talented Kim Talon first caught our attention as one half of the Los Angeles-based dance punk duo Eagle and Talon. She's now branched out and is releasing a solo album under the name JAN.
As you may very well know, we're very fond of girls who rock, and Talon is no exception. Her music and style is loud and unique. There's really no single way to describe her sound and independent spirit. Talon, who is no stranger to posing for provocative photos, is a true original, and that's a big part of why we're crushing on her today.
Her JAN album is set for a November 13 release, but you can download the first track, 'How To Beast,' from Diffuser.fm. The site calls the song a "pleasant Yeah Yeah Yeahs-meets-Portishead concoction" and we pretty much agree with their assessment.

BALTIMORE, April 30 (UPI) -- Some argue malpractice lawsuits are a big driver of U.S. healthcare costs, but researchers suggest these assertions are wrong.
Dr. Marty Makary, an associate professor of surgery and health policy at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and colleagues found in their review that U.S. malpractice payouts of more than $1 million added up to roughly $1.4 billion a year -- making up far less than 1 percent of national medical expenditures in the United States. The cost of U.S. healthcare was $2.6 trillion in 2010.
"The notion that frivolous claims are routinely resulting in $100 million payouts is not true," Makary, the study leader, said in a statement. "The real problem is that far too many tests and procedures are being performed in the name of defensive medicine, as physicians fear they could be sued if they don't order them. That costs upwards of $60 billion a year. It is not the payouts that are bankrupting the system -- it's the fear of them."
Catastrophic claims, or payouts more than $1 million, were more likely to occur when a patient who is killed or injured is under the age of 1; develops quadriplegia, brain damage or the need for lifelong care as a result of the malpractice; or when the claim results from a problem related to anesthesia, the review found. More than 77,000 claims were paid, and catastrophic claims made up 7.9 percent.
Makary and colleagues reviewed nationwide medical malpractice claims using the National Practitioner Data Bank, an electronic repository of all malpractice settlements or judgments since 1986. They looked at 2004-10 data.
Makary said the data suggested the focus of legal reform efforts should be on doctor protections aimed at reducing defensive medicine rather than the creation of malpractice caps.
The findings were published online in the Journal for Healthcare Quality.

Scholarship Inspires Great Teaching (and Vice Versa)by Steve Charles • August 24, 2008 Share:
High praise of Wabash professors by their students has long boosted the College's high rankings in national surveys, including Forbes Magazine's recent naming of Wabash as the 12th best college in the nation.
If the record number and enthusiasm of professors presenting their work at Friday's Ides of August is any indicator, students are in for more of the same as they return to Wabash this week. Click here and here for photo albums.
Twenty professors from practically every discipline at the College taught their first classes of the new semester with their faculty colleagues as students. Subjects ranged from ion traps and harmonic oscillators to the emergence of wage discrimination in U.S. manufacturing to causality in psychological research to violence, genocide, and what it means to read the Bible responsibly.
And while the focus of Ides is on faculty research, several presentations underlined the symbiotic relationship between scholarly research and teaching at this liberal arts college.
Take Professor of Theater Michael Abbott's discussion of his web site blog and international discussion forum on narrative video games: Abbott, a past winner of the College's highest award for teaching, began investigating such groups after the first year he taught the freshman tutorial, The Art and History of Electronic Gaming. The tutorials are designed to engage freshman in topics they care about while teaching them the skills to research, think through, and articulate their findings.
"In that class, I encountered the most impassioned and thoughtful discussions, the best examples of creative and critical thinking, and the finest papers I've read in all my years teaching," Abbott told his fellow professors. He interviewed educators such as Professor James Gee, author of the 2003 book What Video Games Have to Teach us About Learning and Literacy, who told Abbott that "21st century learning must be about understanding complex systems" and introduced him to the phrase "passion communities."
Abbott's blogsite The Brainy Gamer has become such a community, with more than 460,000 hits since he started it in August 2007. Abbott said the way members of that community respectfully and knowledgeably discuss even the most controversial issues could be a model not only for how Wabash students interact in virtual communities, but in face-to-face learning communities, as well.
Abbott's was the first of 20 presentations at the day-long event, which was established 24 years ago by Professor of Biology Tom Cole '58 to update or introduce faculty to their colleagues' scholarly work.

You're right, this is the point I wanted to emphasize.Roel wrote:I think I get why this is: an outsider can get a better general overview of a situation than a participant.
Say a boss is forced to fire his worker because of outside circumstances. The worker might be convinced that it's all the fault of the boss, while an outsider might see that the boss was subject to certain circumstances and it was outside of his possibilities to keep the worker.
However, when talking about what working feels like, how it is experienced, only the worker will really know.
BTW, what happens when two workers have different points of view? Two workers work side-by-side on the same production line. They do the same job. Exactly same duties, responsibilities. They start and end at the same time every day, and take vacations when the factory stops for two weeks in the summer. They earn the same wage, and have the same superwisor. Have the same co-workers, and eat every day lunch in the same cafeteria.
How do you explain their differing opinions? If their opinions differ. So let's assume their opinions about aspects of their jobs differ.
I don't mean how this is possible for them to have different opinions. You can create a case mentally really easily of that. I meant from the "weight behind the opinion" point of view.
And if their boss, or any outsider: you or me, or anyone, aligns with the opinion of Worker A, but not with the opinion of Worker B, then will this Outsider A's opinion bear more or less weight than the opinion of Outsider B's opinion, who sides with the opinion of Worker B?
This is the can of worms and the slippery-slope angle of the "assigning of weights to opinions" argument. I may be an outsider, and have less weight, than Worker A or Worker B individually, but I happen to side with Worker A who actually said the truth, and Worker B's opinion is invalid, or does not reflect the truth. In your argument, you give Worker B a higher weight rating than to me, Outsider A, and yet you admit (after hearing the supporting arguments) that I was right and Worker B was wrong.
Despite Worker B having a higher weight-rating for dependability of his opinion than I!
This is why I don't support the weight-ranking of opinions. I think opinions should be measured and judged for their testable truths, rather than relying on who utters what opinion.
And in fact, this is the reason and background for having an "appeal to authority" fallacy.

Citizens Insurance is a major insurer of automobiles, motorcycles, and trucks in the State of Michigan. In addition, Citizens Insurance provides home, boat, and valuables insurance. It also offers identity and fraud protection. Citizens' is a part of The Hanover Insurance Group.
Citizens Insurance is obligated to pay No-Fault Insurance benefits to any insured who suffers injuries related to a motor vehicle accident. Benefits include full payment of medical expenses, wage loss, household services, attendant care services, medical mileage, transportation expenses, home modifications, and other great benefits. These benefits can be significant in cases involving serious injury accidents.
Anyone injured in an auto accident who receives No-Fault Insurance Benefits is very aware that the insurance company adjuster has been trained to deny claims and to underpay claims. While the adjuster may be very helpful at first, it becomes evident that every claim is over scrutinized and many claims are simply not paid. Quite often the insurance company unlawfully fails to pay all benefits or terminates the payment of benefits. Other times, the insurer simply underpays the benefits that are owed. Eventually, the claimant will be sent to an insurance medical doctor who will recommend a reduction or termination of benefits.
When this happens, the injured person has the right to file a lawsuit against the insurance company for payment of these No-Fault Insurance expenses. If it is determined that the benefits were not timely paid or improperly denied, the accident victim can also receive payment of interest and attorney's fees.
Our Michigan No-Fault Insurance lawyers have an excellent track record of success in cases involving the denial of claims, termination of benefits, or benefits cutoff by Citizens Insurance. There are strict time deadlines for filing lawsuits against Citizens Insurance for a denial or termination of No-Fault Insurance Benefits. If you miss a deadline, many of your claims will be lost forever. For a FREE CONSULTATION with one of our experienced Michigan No-Fault Insurance Lawyers, call us at (800) 606-1717.
