It's that old problem of letting three wolves and a sheep vote on what to eat for dinner. Majority rules, minority rights.
Most of my professors are guilty of this. The only exceptions I've seen so far are math professors who use the chalk, and a programming professor who writes on her thinkpad x-series tablet hooked up to the projector. That's pretty neat, actually.
I have found what you say to be especially true in first-year courses... several of my professors are only here to finish their doctorate and they're just teaching this puny 200-level course because they have to / because it's some spare cash and they don't really know or care as much as they should.
What the world *really* needs is a good Automatic Bicycle Sharpener.
