Much as I know better than to respond to one of Louis' posts...
Isn't knowledge of the topic one of those skills? And don't PhDs (on
avaerage) have more of it than non-PhDs? (If not, then why would people
bother to get PhDs? Is the PhD just a scam?) So, other things being
equal, wouldn't PhDs make better college teachers (on average) than
non-PhDs?
