Résumé anglais The categories of professorial evaluation The analysis of a set of individualized note cards kept by a philosophy teacher concerning his college prep class shows that the evaluation and the operation of scholastic classification carried out by faculty members implicitly take into account social criteria. The System of adjectives by which the professorial judgement is expressed ("vulgar", "mediocre", "serious", "sincere", "subtil", "cultivated", etc.) operates like an instrument of social classification. The results of this analysis are confirmed by the analysis of the necrologies of alumnus of an important college, the "Ecole normale superieure". This represents the final professorial judgement. The categories of university thought and judgement which transpose social classification into the unexpected form of scholastic evaluation function throughout a professional career.
