No More Evening Classes

The administration has announced that starting next fall, the university will stop offering evening classes in many departments. According to a university administrator, the decision was prompted by a steady decline in enrollments in evening classes. Evening classes are just too small, the administrator said. When asked to explain the decline in enrollments, the administrator pointed to the fact that most evening classes are taught by teaching assistants, who are usually graduate students. Surveys show that students prefer to take classes taught by experienced faculty members, the spokesperson said, " Probably because they simply know more than graduate teaching assistants do.

The man disagrees with the decision announced in the student newspaper. Explain why the university made the decision and why the man disagrees with.

According to the reading context, the university will stop offering evening classes in many departments in the next fall due to the small evening classes, which is linked to the fact that these classes are taught by teaching assistants.

The man is in disagreement.

Starting off, students actually prefer small classes for they can be more actively involved and get more attention and support, so it is a better way to study.

Plus, experience doesn`t always matter. If someone has been teaching the same thing for 20 years, he might be tired of it and be less enthusiastic. But if it is the first time for someone to teach, he is going to be exciting and communicate the excitement with his students.
