Editor's Notes
--Academically Adrift
1990s study finds that "Evaluations may encourage faculty to grade easier and make course workloads lighter.” --University of Washington prof, article in American Psychologist. “Professors who are easy graders receive better evaluations than do professors who are tougher.” --http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~wilkins/osu_and_ohio/essays/evaluation.html
