Of course, balancing is very important. You should at end keep in the topic boundaries. What I meant here is that professors try to rehearse and practice a lot so that they are able to answer even surprising questions. If they really understand what they teach, they will be able to find “correct “answers to whatever they were asked. Of course, some other questions still need more search, but professors will be able to answer the majority of questions through improvisation.

Thanks so much for your response Homero! I really appreciate your experiences. They are very helpful. Thanks so much for that. I like how you mentioned caring for students is key, and that it is important for respect, and all the great things. Thank you!
Also, about not teaching at a research institution– I really respect that, and believe in that. There is a far greater investment in students rather than research. I believe in the importance of both research and students. However, students come first! Thank you!
