This is a college? Perhaps the students (and their parents) deserve what they have brought upon themselves.

According to their literature Evergreen State College “is a distinctive public liberal arts college where coordinated, team-taught, interdisciplinary programs replace disconnected courses.

Instead of grades “Faculty members write narrative evaluations to assess student work, rather than reducing performance and progress to a letter grade. The curriculum promotes engagement and collaboration, rather than competition.

“Students have the freedom, and accountability, to design their education to meet their personal and career goals, without the limits of formalized majors or rigid requirements.”

“The curriculum is redesigned every year, and upper division students can propose individual learning contracts to further customize their learning experience.”

I can see from their literature that Evergreen State College will not be producing too many Daigney Taggert or John Galt like graduates.
But there will be a bunch of algores.
