Many instructors believe that an informal, relaxed classroom environment is 4>^LEp
good for learning and innovation. It is not uncommon for students to have easygoing -t]3 gCLb
and friendly relationships with their professors. The casual professor is not necessarily :o~]FVf
a poor one and is still respected by students. Although students may be in a $ UNC0(4
subordinate position, some professors treat them as equals. However, no matter how q QcQnd2K
equal professors would like to be, they still are in a position of authority. tGE=!qk
Professors may establish social relationships with students outside of the E7'
classroom, but in the classroom they maintain the instructor's role. A professor may \SSHj ONX
have coffee one day with students but the next day expect them to meet a deadline for rn^cajO^
the submission of a paper or to be prepared for a discussion or an exam. The professor /< k&[
may give extra attention outside of class to a student in need of help but probably will (1EtC{
m
not treat him or her differently when it comes to evaluating school work. Professors s&hJ[$i
have several roles in relation to students; they may be friends as well as teachers.
(}g4}A@x

adapt their behavior and attitudes. Vv54;Js9
