As someone who transitioned from working in startups and technology to a university, it is hard to describe how different the environment is.

It looks very weird and is hard to understand from the outside, and unfortunately all technology vendors are on the outside.

Basically every technology has an impedance mismatch when brought into the university environment. And when you combine them together it keeps getting worse.

That's why you see things in this thread like CS professors who operate their class using pen and paper and maybe a spreadsheet.
