Talk about lowered expectations and standards. Fifty plus years ago as art director for my HS yearbook we managed to produce a yearbook without computers and digital photography and without errors. We were expected to do the job right and we had a faculty supervisor monitoring our work at milestone moments. Then again all of our teachers managed to prepare us for the world at large as it was.
Funniest thing last year was when the yearbook came out, the principal’s name was misspelled. (elementary school around the corner)

I was on yearbook staff for three years in HS (77-80). The lessons learned were work ethic and a realization that excellence is possible through shared hard work.
You wouldn’t expect the typical teacher of today to even understand what those things are, except possibly to be tools of oppression used by the white-heterosexual-patriarchy.
