"Ward �I really am an Indian� Churchill, who teaches at the University of Colorado at Boulder, received a disturbing message from students concerning his performance during the spring 2005 semester. According to student evaluations made available to the public, Professor Churchill�s most recent grades are anything but great. Churchill received lower marks in each of the three classes he taught last spring compared to the grades he earned for those same classes in previous semesters.
In Churchill�s "Topical Issues in Native North America" class students were asked to �rate this course compared to all your other university courses.� Churchill received a �C� compared to the �A� he earned for that class during the fall 2004 semester. Students were then asked to �rate this instructor compared to all your other university instructors.� Churchill received another �C� compared to the �A� he got in the fall. When it came to the �fairness of his grading policies,� again Churchill�s grade dropped from an �A� to a �C.� The professor�s most notable grade drop came when students were asked to, �rate the accessibility of the instructor.� Churchill received a �D+� for the spring semester. That�s down from the �B+� he earned during the fall."
