Thanks for citing Griggs v. Duke Power. I knew of the case and its relevance but I couldn’t name it just now.

Of course, now that college degrees mean little more than that the bearer paid a bunch of money for a sheet of paper, companies are once again bringing back “assessment tests”...ON TOP OF the degree.

Interesting.

I must admit that I am ignorant of assessment tests. Are they some kind of tests to determine what the student learned in college? Or sre they different from that?

I know that my college administered a series of tests along the lines of what we learned of a grouping of broad categories (history of western civilization, mathematics, etc), but you are saying that companies do this, so the subjects certainly would be different.

Please advise.
