Students are very easy to handle today, so much so that it often really terrifies me to see how willing they are to humor people they often don't respect and in many cases shouldn't in order to get their ticket into the middle class punched. We have so many administrators today because we insist on micro-manageing every aspect of campus life. The goal seems to be turning the university environment into one gigantic Skinner Box designed to minimise the possibility that the Ith student will ever become "hard to handle" either in the classroom or elsewhere. The situation on campus is clarified wonderfully if you think of every administrator as a policeman. Why dose the university need a policeman on every corner. Perhaps because everything which is not required is now forbidden? Mike Roberts
