s Sacrificing Our Principles 4 Many (if not most) students choose to join Kenyon's "goodly race" college which em- JBBSfOa because of its attractiveness as a small liberal arts phasizes individual attention. Many (if not most) students who read Mike Cannizzaro's front-pag- e article were undoubtedly surprised to learn that it is acceptable college practice for professors to employ "graders." Admittedly, it is difficult for a teacher to grade every exam and paper in a huge class within a reasonable period of time, while still keeping up on class material. (It's not so easy for the students, either.) There is a trade-of- f involved when a professor must take time away from lecture preparation, a trade-of- f which is judged to varying degrees by different members of the community. However, this practice of employing readers seems to fly directly in the face of stated college policy. The 1981 handbook explicitly states that, "The faculty's first investment is in Kenyon's students" (pg. 2). Further, the criteria for evaluating faculty members includes "timely review and appropriate evaluation of student work" as part of "Teaching Excellence" (116). These are lofty attd impressive phrases one which should never be tossed aside. One of Kenyon's greatest assets is its personal touch. Without it, the College loses that unique flavor which sets it apart from other universities. This depersonalization of the Kenyon Experience certainly does not bode well for this college's future. Students paying $8500 to learn here have the right to expect that the college will work to meet the high standards it had set for itself. We feel that professorial examination of work is a part of this standard, as defined in the handbook: "Kenyon remains a small college and exemplifies deliberate limitation. ..Focus is blurred when there is dispersion over large numbers or over a large body of interests. Kenyon remains com- prehensible. It's dimensions are humane and not overpowering." A class of 109 certainly is overpowering. Perhaps it is time for Kenyon to reconsider its values and priorities, because it seems to be having a hard time living up to the one it has stated.
