------题目------
The following appeared in a memorandum from a dean at Omega University.
'Fifteen years ago, Omega University implemented a new procedure that encouraged students to evaluate the teaching effectiveness of all their professors. Since that time, Omega professors have begun to assign higher grades in their classes, and overall student grade averages at Omega have risen by thirty percent. Potential employers apparently believe the grades at Omega are inflated; this would explain why Omega graduates have not been as successful at getting jobs as have graduates from nearby Alpha University. To enable its graduates to secure better jobs, Omega University should now terminate student evaluation of professors.'
------正文------
No matter how sound the argument seems at first glance, after considerate examination, we can find several critical flaws which undermine its credibility. The author mistakenly assumes that all things are stationary during extended period and neglects other possible factors which can cause low success in finding jobs. In addition, the arguer fails to take into account that there are maybe many distinctions between Omega and Alpha University which render the comparison invalid.
To begin with, the argument is not convincing due to its assumption that all things will not change as time goes on. In fact, after fifteen years the Omega University may have altered a lot in its teachers structure, curriculum designing, students resource, and so on. If courses provided by school are more feasible to be accepted by major students, and the teachers have improved drastically in their capabilities and skills of teaching, students are more like to get higher grades than ever before.
In addition, the ever scores fifteen yeas ago may be very low, so that even when scores have increased thirty percent, they are lower than those of Alpha University. We also can find any information about opinion from employees that they are dissatisfied with high scores. The inflated scores may be in proper level and innocent for failure of searching jobs.
Furthermore, the author ignores other factors which may be the primary reason resulting in the low accessible to jobs in Omega, such as the reputation of school, the faculties provided by school, and as forth. Maybe the curriculum set in Alpha University is not suitable to the competitive and developing society, which means society does not need students graduating from Omega University while Alpha University has designed courses according to the social needs and require.
It is also possible that the Alpha itself as a whole school is better than Omega. In other words, Alpha may have advantages which Omega could not achieve in many aspects such as the professors and institutions other than simply contribute the shortcoming to the higher grades. As for the unfair comparison, the argument is groundless.
In sum, the argument draws a unpersuasive conclusion based on some irrelevant evidence. Therefore, without careful thinking and better evaluation, the author can not regard the higher grades as the major reasons.
