Teachers are not allowed to give students failing grades because:
1.) It will hurt the child's self esteem
2.) Parents will sue the school
3.) It will negatively impact the Federal funds the school receives
4.) Even though the child cuts class and doesn't complete any of their homework assignments or shows the slightest proficiency in the subject - it isn't the child's fault, it's the teacher's.

Because it is an important job beyond the many pitfalls.

Reason # 1..SUMMERS OFF WITH PAY, case closed.
Reason # 2.. On very rare occasion one of the students you actually can reach will look back and remember you with vast amounts of respect for your time and effort.
Reason # 3..It's a government job and right now any jobs a good one.

Seconded. All of the above are the reason that 99% of my classmates at university are F#++ING MORONS.

Because they'll pay you for it, and they won't pay you for driving 6 penny nails through your genitals while singing La Cucaracha.
(I hope).
I could find a bunch of people who'd pay to see that. Problem is, you'd have to get them drunk enough first.
