This manuscript addresses the question of who makes the better university professor.--Is it the person with experience in the field as a K-12 administrator or the one directly out of college with only in-depth knowledge of educational administration theory? The study was performed at a southern university using graduate educational leadership and research students as participants. The survey instrument was developed utilizing a sample survey method. A coding technique was used to create categories for responses and the responses were then quantified by recording their relative frequency within each category. (Contains 1 figure and 4 tables.)
