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?
