"I feel like what ends up hap-
pening is the students who are
more likely to go on and actually
fill them out are those with serious
complaints," Allen said. "It doesn't
allow professors to get a general
census of how students felt about
a class overall."
Tenney said he thinks mak-
ing the evaluations pub-
lic will increase the student
response rate.
"I highly expect it will help," he
said. "I'm going to be surprised and
disappointed if it doesn't. The nexl
step would be withholding grades:
no eval, no grade. I hope it doesn't
come to that."
