FCEs need to be made useful to students, staff
The Tartan Online: "Regardless of whether students have what they believe to be either the best or worst professor in their entire academic career, it is highly unlikely that they will ever fill out the Faculty Course Evaluation (FCE) for the class unless they’re offered some highly elusive and coveted extra credit."

While I agree with the closing argument of this article, that students need to be convinced that the FCEs will actually have a positive effect on the their teachers/courses/campus as whole, I'm always very perturbed to hear about this. Extra credit to do this? COME ON! Its your right as a student to evaluate your experience. As a person receiving this education, you should have a say in the content or the way it was delivered. I'm saddened that students don't feel a vested interest in potentially having an impact on the future of their courses, or the development of their teachers.
