For all those who teach non-mainstream courses, I have a couple of
questions. Do you teach these courses in addition to your regular load? If
you do, is there any pay or other incentive for doing this or is it just
assumed to be your professonal responsibility or your own desire?
Thanks in
I am reading about these courses with envy. How many of you (and how often)
do you get to teach something a little different? How do you get the time?
We have proposed a number of different courses here, but, with the number
