1. I think both of the teachers were extremely frustrated at the situation. Both had to relocate their classes and both had to change classrooms entirely.
 a.) They can propose a project where bigger classrooms are made.
             1. This probably won't be done because of the cost for materials and labor.
 b.) They can formulate a plan where classes and their rooms are strictly scheduled.
             1. This would be easier to do than the first proposition but it wouldn't entirely solve the problem.
2. The students cannot receive the full education they're paying for. If the teacher is preoccupied by pressing matters involving school affairs then how can she be expected to teach her class well.

4. a.) The economy in general can have an extreme negative affect on the local community colleges. The teachers that do work there may or may not entirely be into their job. The performance of the instructor is directly related to that of the student. The college can be located in a poor neighborhood which would account for the lack of enrollment. A host of other factors could be at play.
 b.) I can't really find a rebuttal for Claitor's argument.

5. a.) A lot more things can play a role on how things are ran on a campus. If one of the gears fail to work then the entire system can have a glitch. Budget cuts can be found everywhere. How is a teacher supposed to get by?
   b.) A lot of the problems that the students are having are caused by things out of their control.
