Abstract
Nursing students, like their college counterparts, are beginning to revolt against hierarchical authority and to claim a more active part in their educational planning. Nurse educators can no longer assume that their students will never revolt; they must face up to the challenge of developing strategies for proper management of student unrest. The authors propose some ways to deal with the complex issue of student unrest. These suggestions are made with emphasis on faculty-student relationship and the curriculum. Improved faculty-student relationships, proper utilization of student peer influence and student involvement in curriculum planning are some of the strategies proposed in this paper.
