This article analyzes perception about
academics in Turkey through a very popular website (eksisozluk.com). The
article employs systematic analysis to identify and analyze comments about
academics in the website. Eksisozluk.com is chosen because people can
anonymously write on there; therefore they can tell something which generally
cannot be said face to face. When we looked at the site, we saw top eight
titles about academics and there are hundreds of comments for each entry. We
have analyzed fifty of comments for each entry which makes four hundred of
comments in total. The comments are analyzed by the method of content analysis
and the results affirm there is a high negative perception about academics in
Turkey.
