Taken seriously

Original Toronto Star caption: Taken seriously: Jack McLeod says some of his colleagues consider his books an embarrassment to their profession. Comedy involves satire and hyperbole. I write about what I know; and if my books are an extreme distortion of university life; they're not a put-down. Even if I had written Gone With The Wind and had reaped all those royalties; I'd still want to keep my university post; he says.
