Skinner is the prototypical educational bureaucrat, constantly concerned with a low-grade battle against the school's inadequate resources,
largely apathetic teachers, and largely rowdy and unenthusiastic students--Bart being the standout example. Lisa, meanwhile, as the school's
genius, is to be exploited to make the school look good, particularly when the district's educational superintendant
Chalmers, who Skinner fears greatly,
is visiting.

Seymour Skinner's personal history, like many Simpsons characters, is somewhat convoluted. It was long known that he was a Vietnam War veteran,
single, living alone with his domineering elderly mother. However, in an episode devoted to filling in the character's backstory, it was revealed that
he was actually an impostor, having stolen the identity of his platoon sargeant at the end of the war.

In later seasons, he formed a furtive, but seemingly long-term, romantic relationship with Edna Krabappel, one
of the exceedingly few cases where Simpsons characters have apparently undergone personal evolution within the show's history.
