Dean Jones

We did see the new Indiana Jones movie last weekend, and while it was mostly “tedious havoc” (identify that quotation), it did support my point in the “Professor Jones” post that the series is really all about academia. The best line in the new movie: After Prof. Jones does some amazing deeds against the bad guys, the smart-aleck teenager, astonied and amazed, says, “Y-Y-You’re a TEACHER?” But the best part to me is that Indiana Jones, through much struggle, rises in his career to the point of going into ADMINISTRATION! I always knew he was a potential dean, even provost, due to his facility with a bullwhip. Now he is in a position to really do heroic deeds!
