One thought I have is that if we find ourselves resenting our students, that could mean we have too many, which is also an institutional problem, if our schools have large class sizes in order to decrease faculty pay.
That could certainly be the case. And it was also true for me at my SLAC with very small class sizes. I wonder how faculty can help to shape student expectations differently, no matter the faculty : student ratio.
