Hiring Celebrities as Visiting Professors

Nowadays, it is not rare that celebrities from all works of life are employed as guest professors in universities. And we can always see reports about this in newspapers, magazines and other news media.

Some people see it as a win-win situation. On the one hand, celebrities can share their successful stories with students, which can broaden students’ horizon and inspire them to work harder. On the other hand, being visiting professors of universities, the celebrities can make themselves known to more people. However, other people disapprove² this practice. They argue that universities’ attention of inviting³ celebrities to be professors is to enhance the schools’ fame instead of improving the quality of education, and some celebrities are not qualified⁴ to be professors.

In my view, just as a coin has two sides, the inviting of celebrities as guest professors has both good and bad effects. Thus I think colleges should evaluate the possible results thoroughly⁵, and their choices should be based on the improvement of teaching standards and students’ development.
