Marketing our teachers

We celebrated teachers day but hardly realise that our teachers are grossly underpaid as compared to other developing and developed countries. Even when it comes to marketing them it is their successfull students who are praised and not their teachers. We hear about IIM's fat salaries but rarely hear about the effort of our lecturers/professors. Even in the media the effect is glorified. In this constant struggle between cause and effect should we not promote the cause rather than the effect!
