The Wild Fleece

Professors may become freelancers dispensing the old sheepskin to students:

"Self-employed professor" could soon be an actual job title, thanks to two companies that are helping a small group of college professors market their own online courses, set prices for them and share the tuition revenue.

I assume this is intended to be way different than a diploma mill.

Really, this post was just about the tortured word play for the title.

Tip to Mad Minerva. For the story, I hasten to add. The pun is all on me.
