Group to Examine Similar
Programs at Other Colleges
Three students, one adminis
tration member, and two faculty
members met Friday to deter
mine the nature of the requests
by students for teacher-rating at
tne university.
The faculty and administra
tion men were appointed by the
liason committee between the
faculty and administration. They
are: Ephriam Hixson, associate
director of resident teaching at
Ag college; E. Roger Washburn,
professor of chemistry, and Carl
W. Borgmann, dean of faculties.
Mayer Moskovitz, chairman of
the scholarship committee of the
Student . Council, was appointed
by that body to head the sub
committee, which met in Dean
and Bruce Kennedy, both Coun
cil members, volunteered to at
tend the meeting.
Those present agreed with a
suggestion by Dean Borgmann
that a teacher-rating system
should be on a voluntary basis
if one is developed at , Ne
braska. , , '
Contact Other Schools
It was decided at the meeting
that other schools would be con
tacted in order to determine the
nature of various teacher-rating
systems in use currently. A new
meeting between students and
faculty is planned for some time
in the future. In the, meantime,
the committee will look over
material gathered and try to de
velop a plan.
During the first part of March,
300 University students were
polled and 294 of them were in
favor of teacher-rating. They
were asked whether they would
rate instructors objectively if a
system were established, whether
they thought teacher ratings
should by carried out to a defi
nite scale or on the basis of gen
eral criticisms in the student's
own words, and whether they
thought instructors would con
sider rating valid criticisms and
as a result atempt to improve
their teaching in ' accordance
with suggestions. : .
64 Favor Scale .
Sixty-four percent favored a
definite scale and 62 percent be
lieved that instructors would
carry through their part of the
system. Two hundred and ninety
four said they were in favor of
objective rating. A majority of
those polled felt - that teachers
would gam by sucn a system.
In a ooll of 43 instructors made
by The Daily Nebraskan a week
later 85 percent wee in iavor ui
teacher-rating. The scale most
favored was the Purdue teacher
rating scale which appeared in
The Daily Nebraskan on Feb. 28.
Many . of them (Opposed . having
such , a system campus wine.
Teachers in some departments
are alerady being rated by one
means or another. Teachers col
lege instructors iavored rating
courses instead of teachers.
