It is naive to believe that a research university's purpose is to educate its undergrads. If you speak to any professor, they will tell you that the purpose of a university is to create ground breaking innovation on the bleeding edge of their fields. The undergrads are there just because they have to deal with it. Given the option of teaching and research, most professors wouldn't think twice.
