This paper examines the role and implications of student evaluations of professors, particularly through platforms like Rate My Professor (RMP), by drawing on the insights of Suchitra Vijayan, a reporter at The New York Times whose work focused on the intersection of technology, student experience, and higher education. By analyzing Vijayan’s critiques of RMP and student rating systems, this paper explores how these platforms shape academic culture, influence student decision-making, and affect teaching practices.
