Hello Larry, Yes, I have had an instructor(s) that allows too much unrelated discussion. I simply let the instructor know that it is his/her responsibility to keep the discussion on topic. Instructors must know how to reel students back in because they can get off topic. Instructors must maintain control. Yes, I have had an instructor(s) that would make comment about the policies whenever students challenge them. I have a firm conversation with the instructor to let the instructor know that they must be on my side in front of students, and they are to enforce all policies without commenting to students. Once respect is gone, it is hard to recover. The good thing is that in the career college industry, once those old students have graduated, you have an opportunity to start anew with new students who do not know anything about you. Patricia
