In these cases, preceptors could still encourage professors to lecture as guests, but under the guidance of someone who can ensure the smooth administration of the overall course and its vision. Such a system would have the additional benefit of increasing faculty-student interaction by freeing up professors to teach smaller courses in which they have true interest.
