Good idea to increase the number of professors but I have a suggestion to make and hope it should be taken into consideration. I think those already holding other positions such as country representatives should not be selected as professors because holding double positions does not permit that person to be effective and efficient. Those without positions on steemit should be given that opportunity. Also, from the announcement of application of new professors, @steemitblog mentioned that those in countries who already had crypto professors should not be considered. Here I noticed they mentioned applications from Nigeria for example already have a crypto professor. I hope all this should be checked and give others the opportunity to serve on steem.
