Many instructors believe that an informal, relaxed classroom environment is 4J2^zx,H
good for learning and innovation. It is not uncommon for students to have easygoing
lN,?N{6s
and friendly relationships with their professors. The casual professor is not necessarily ieFl4hh[G
a poor one and is still respected by students. Although students may be in a zx3gz7>k;
subordinate position, some professors treat them as equals. However, no matter how V!W.P
equal professors would like to be, they still are in a position of authority. |'Fe?~P`
Professors may establish social relationships with students outside of the 'X^auyL
classroom, but in the classroom they maintain the instructor's role. A professor may F5h/>
have coffee one day with students but the next day expect them to meet a deadline for 2cR[~\_9.
the submission of a paper or to be prepared for a discussion or an exam. The professor KK){/I=z
may give extra attention outside of class to a student in need of help but probably will m`/Nl<
not treat him or her differently when it comes to evaluating school work. Professors /yOx=V
have several roles in relation to students; they may be friends as well as teachers. \N,ox(f?gW
