In my world, for better or for worse, we are judged by our students.
At UNT, we have a Voice Departmental Recital every week. We are a
large enough program that we have 45-minute to hour programs with
JUST voice students.

Believe me, every time a student gets up to sing, the teacher is
judged. And, in severe cases, poor performances by students can mean
dismissal, failure to receive promotion and/or tenure, or loss of
merit salary increases. And I bet it's better here at UNT than at
many other institutions!

It may or may not be right, but this is reality.
