At Texas State the statistical information is considered "public"
record and available to anyone who requests it. The written comments
are viewed as performance appraisal information for evaluation of
teaching and are available to members of the personnel committee and
the department chair (and presumably to those higher up in the
administrative food chain). Our written comments are made on the same
form as the numerical ratings, so putting the information into
separate packets would not be doable for us. Policies on this are
likely to vary from university to university though as most things
with course evaluations tend to vary from university to university as
well... for example, here each department is responsible for course
evaluations within the department, but I know at some other
universities a center on campus are often responsible for a
campus-wide course evaluation...

Is it my understanding that whereas the chairperson may review the
statistics on the individualized items on teacher evaluation
forms,comments by students should be placed in a separate packet and
could only be viewed by the the appropriate instructor?
