Many instructors believe that an informal, relaxed classroom environment is 1 D<_N
good for learning and innovation. It is not uncommon for students to have easygoing _OuWB"
and friendly relationships with their professors. The casual professor is not necessarily :'~Y
a poor one and is still respected by students. Although students may be in a i`dCG[
subordinate position, some professors treat them as equals. However, no matter how ~TSy<t~%-
equal professors would like to be, they still are in a position of authority. PYM(Xz$
Professors may establish social relationships with students outside of the a hR ^
classroom, but in the classroom they maintain the instructor's role. A professor may 1:f9J
have coffee one day with students but the next day expect them to meet a deadline for 3td)'}
the submission of a paper or to be prepared for a discussion or an exam. The professor lzYnw)Pv
may give extra attention outside of class to a student in need of help but probably will ?34 e-
not treat him or her differently when it comes to evaluating school work. Professors $!8-? ?ML
have several roles in relation to students; they may be friends as well as teachers. [&&1j@LQ*

adapt their behavior and attitudes. L:1^Kxg
