A mediocre academic whose one career accomplishment is that he/she knows how to write successful research grants but has no idea how to focus that research for any pratical results.
Dr. Patterson is a rotten teacher but he has tenure because he's such a grant whore. He brings in 25 million a year for his research into the boxers vs breifs question.
