	The Voice Magazine - a Publication of the Athabasca University Students Union (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		In case you are wondering, Athabasca University is on the list of rateable universities, but so far only 31 AU tutors have been rated, and the majority of those have only received a rating from one student, which makes the results a lot less useful than they could be.
		Athabasca University offers similar course and tutor rating forms, which are viewed by members of the Tutor Services office, and then are used to create aggregate results sheets for tutors.
		It is also concerning that a university has little incentive to remove professors who rate poorly on their internal surveys, since students will be unaware of those ratings and continue enrolling in that professor's classes anyway.
