Citing faculty feedback, Harvard's Classroom Social Compact Committee indicated in a January report that undergraduate students "have rising expectations for high grades, but falling expectations for effort"; often don't attend class; frequently don't do many of the assigned readings; seek out easy courses; and in some cases are "uncomfortable with curricular content that is not aligned with the student's moral framework."
The January report noted further that "some teaching fellows grade too easily because they fear negative student feedback."
