Satisfied Customers versus Pedagogic Responsibility: Further Thoughts on Student Consumerism.
Delucchi, Michael; Smith, William L.
Teaching Sociology, v25 n4 p336-37 Oct 1997
Responds to comments by Eisenberg (Anne F.) and Shepperd (Jerry W.) to the authors' arguments about student consumerism and postmodern society. Notes common ground among all four authors, and addresses points on which they differ: the importance of faculty adapting to students' expectations and the role of the academy as guardian of knowledge.
