Abstract
One of the most important and, according to psychological and pedagogical literature, the least investigated aspects of the domestic system of higher education is the sphere of personal interrelations at the level “teacher – student”. The formation of this type of social relations is a complicated process equally depending on both interested sides, but it is this process that eventually determines the efficiency of the educational process. At present anonymous questioning of both students and teachers is by far the only method of high quality psychodiagnostics of this sphere of educational space. The received findings not only give a more comprehensive idea of the personal characteristics of modern students and the teaching staff of higher schools but can also provide some essential corrective amendments to the organization of the educational process. Anonymous questioning of 400 students of the medical and pediatric faculties of Kursk State Medical University (KSMU) has revealed a number of both quite predictable and fairly unexpected facts concerning the psychological atmosphere at the level “teacher – student”. The received findings to some extent alter the firmly established idea of an elevated ambitiousness of the modern generation of students. Corroborative to it is the objective fact of a lowered personal self-esteem in 38% questioned students of KSMU. The fact of the negative judgment of professional and personal qualities of some teachers (16% of respondents) is alarming and needing thorough consideration and practical conclusions. The comparatively low demand of the recommended to students main academic teaching manuals of the studied disciplines (56%) and the actually unclaimed lectures delivered to them (8%) can be to a great extent explained by their competitive disability in comparison with the short in form but superficial in the contents various kinds of “homebrew” guidance-manuals permanently ranking first in the teachers’ annual rating reports.

Summary
На сегодняшний день едва ли не единственным методом психодиагностики этой сферы образовательного пространства является анонимное анкетирование как студентов, так и преподавателей. Анонимное анкетирование 400 студентов лечебного и педиатрического факультетов Курского государственного медицинского университета (КГМУ) позволило выявить ряд как вполне предсказуемых, так и достаточно неожиданных фактов, касающихся психологической атмосферы на уровне взаимоотношений «преподаватель – студент». Ключевые слова: качество высшего образования, анонимное самооценочное анкетирование студентов, профессионально-личностная оценка преподавателей, отношения «преподаватель – студент». Образовательное «зазеркалье», или «Они» и «мы» // Высшее образование в России. Введение Одним из главных «инструментов» так называемых «внутренних исследований» университета [1] является анонимное анкетирование, основанное на само- и взаимооценке преподавателей и студентов по многим аспектам их взаимодействия и взаимоотношений. В данном случае под «статусной инфляцией» подразумевается падение престижа профессии «преподаватель высшей школы», который, как всякий социальный феномен, может рассматриваться с двух сторон – внешней и внутренней. Их критические замечания по этому поводу обычно носят упрощённый («недостаточные возможности в выборе специализации и вариативных дисциплин», «недостаточная чистота и оснащённость учебных аудиторий», «низкое качество питания» [8]) или вовсе несерьёзный характер («невозможность парковки возле здания факультета») [9]
