I remember an American History class in high school in which the teacher, a jock who happened to teach history, was jabbering on about how General Grant proved his ability as a commander when he won the Union day at Gettysburg. I humiliated him by informing him that General Grant was nowhere near Gettysburg when that battle was fought, and that the Union commander was George Meade.
With quality teachers like that in our schools, it's no surprise we're graduating functional illiterates.
You don’t have to worry about bad lecturers in the classroom, any more. The teachers just instruct the kids to watch a YouTube video with a lecturer who has all the facts. The teacher doesn’t have to know or explain anything.
At least it wasn’t over when the German’s bombed Pearl Harbor...>snicker<
