Many instructors believe that an informal, relaxed classroom environment is *vqr+jr9
good for learning and innovation. It is not uncommon for students to have easygoing Cih~cwE
and friendly relationships with their professors. The casual professor is not necessarily +[lv
`tr
a poor one and is still respected by students. Although students may be in a U3 -cH
subordinate position, some professors treat them as equals. However, no matter how R?Dc*,
equal professors would like to be, they still are in a position of authority. V Kw33
Professors may establish social relationships with students outside of the pWm==Ds|
classroom, but in the classroom they maintain the instructor's role. A professor may wk@S+Q
have coffee one day with students but the next day expect them to meet a deadline for %b1N
lzB+
the submission of a paper or to be prepared for a discussion or an exam. The professor ?c6`p3p3L
may give extra attention outside of class to a student in need of help but probably will |jhu
not treat him or her differently when it comes to evaluating school work. Professors N!Cy)HnS\w
have several roles in relation to students; they may be friends as well as teachers. VUQx"R
