At the University of Vermont, a horde of students boycotted the school because of lack in giving the students course evaluations. Prior to this event, the Student Government Association informed the school to give the students course evaluations by Dec. 1st or there would be a boycott in return. The Faculty Senate, who oversees the evaluation process, didn't support this process. This transaction isn't new either. It dates back to several years. There are people who supported it and those who didn't.
In my opinion, boycotting is a good way to notify the group that you seek for change. These students wanted to see their course evalutions, but the school refused to. Even if the school didn't change the rules, they now know the students care. Hopefully, the students will one day see their course evaluations. You never know unless you try.
