In this argument, the author firstly states that since the new move promoting students to appraise their professors' teaching, the professors from Omega University tend to grant better scores to their classes, with the figure about thirty percent higher than before. Subsequent to that, the author attributes to the incredibility by the expected employers to the grades at Omega that lead to the fallacy of employment compared to the nearby Alpha University. And finally, the author concludes that in order to help Omega's graduates to get better jobs, the evaluation of professors should be stopped. However, the argument is unconvincing because it contains several flaws in logic.

To begin with, it is obviously unfair to assume that the increasing of the grates of student bears some relation to grandiose tricks by the professors, no direct details or evidence is cited to show neither that the ability and achievement of students was really better than before, nor some professors truly played some exaggerating on the final results. And because the purpose of the evaluation procedure is just to ameliorate the quality of teaching, it is probable that the improvement of the grates of student is a positive results. Lacking of the evidence to show there are inflating of the marks of students, the author is presumptuous to suggest that the increasing of the scores are glossy, which is unfairly both to the professors and to the students, and this argument is critically weekend and unwarranted.

Further more, referring to the employment situation , the evidence is insufficient to support that the expected employers really hold the opinion that the grades at Omega is sheer false as the author states. The words "apparently" can prove nothing but author's arbitrariness without any fact. Although the graduates from Omega are not better in getting job than that from Alpha, no more details is presented to show that firstly ,the grades from Alpha is lower than that from Omega, or secondly,
the ability of students from Alpha in getting employed is worse or better than that of students from Omega, or even thirdly, if the Alpha University also has the evaluation procedure or not. Simply attribute the failure of getting employed to the distrust by employers without any evidence for reasoning, the argument is completely unpersuasive as it stands.

Finally,
to recommend that terminating the evaluation of professors will enable students to secure better job is problematic, no evidence or statistics is shown there which can prove this and, many other factors will clearly play on the result of hunting jobs. Such as the comprehensive abilities of graduates, and the relative demand to the specialty by the market. Without showing a direct link between the evaluation police and the result of securing jobs, the author can not confidently to suggest and conclude that the evaluation of professors should be desisted.

To sum up, the argument is unreliable as it stands, and in order to strengthen it, the author have to provide the direct evidence to show that there is really false in the grades of students, which has a very bad effect on graduates' securing jobs by influencing the impression to the potential employer , and what's more, only via stopping the procedure of appraising the professors, can the exaggerating of the scores be ended off.
