WHY?

Why do a large section of the students act boorishly and rude, exhibiting unusual aggression towards the staff?

• They are not genuine students, only there for the grants, something to do, to have a bit of fun by acting destructively.
• They have been told the college passes everyone anyway.
• Lack of intelligence.
• They know nothing will happen to them no matter what they do because the owners want their money. They can therefore be as challenging as they choose. 
• This is the way they normally behave in the outside world on some council estate in the darkest parts of London.
• Get this! I spoke to the student officer who reckoned they were like her when she was young and clearly is on their side. But this is a college! This is about education! People are supposed to grow up surely? What about the lecturers? Do they not have the right to be treated with respect? Not to this student officer who looks well past 50 and perhaps should know better. She sees disrespect as a positive quality rather than the unacceptable behaviour it actually is. But this is a private college! Such facilities acknowledge money not learning.
