University power structures shouldn't be entirely democratic. The students need to be clearly subordinate to their teachers.
I think what's happening here is that, through fear of student power or laziness, the administration is using its power to appease the overreacting students rather than control and moderate their overreaction.
- danharaj 11y agoI don't think the ideal relationship between students and teachers is at all subordination. In any case, the real subordination relationship is "Investors/Trustees/Donors > Administrators > Teachers/Students".
