I wonder how students would respond to a website where instructors could anonymously
write comments about them? "Hey faculty, you better hope you don't get this guy in
your class! He: "Always comes in late"; "Chews gum with open mouth"; "Just sits
there with a vacant stare"; "Shows no enthusiasm"; "Reads the newspaper during
lecture"..........

Instead of having "answers" on a math
test they should just call them "impressions,"
and if you get a different "impression"
so what, can't we all be brothers?

There are more evaluations there, but you have to "Choose
a community". This takes you to semi-customized webpages
for each school. Then when you choose Course Evaluations
it will show evaluations for the school. (By the way, it is a bit
annoying to navigate, because it sets _your_ community as
whichever one you happen to be visiting; the only way to change
is to find a link that allows you to change your community).
I checked a few schools at random and found about half had
no course ratings. The others ranged from 5 to about 150 (Mich. State
I believe). Here's a not completely representative (but not that far
off either) evaluation:
"The evaluation of this course is really a zero, because you do not learn
nothing out of there. The professor acts so negative about everything. So if
someone asks me if I learned something out of there I would just say NO!!!
Get another professor who knows how to teach the class."
