I propose a sign for every structure in the USA, if it was designed by a graduate of Oberlin:

“Warning: This structure was designed by a graduate of Oberlin college, which abolished below-average grades.

Only liberals are allowed to enter.”

I don’t care what Oberlin College students want. Do they want Ds and F’s banned? Fine with me. Do they want to be exempted from taking tests? Fine with me. It makes it easier when I’m reviewing resumes for a job. If I see Oberlin College, I throw the resume out.

“A lot of us started suffering academically.”

Well, you’re the one paying tens of thousands in tuition every year (or your parents if they are suckers). If you choose to squander that by not making academics your top priority, nobody is going to try to stop you. Welcome to the wonderful world of adult personal responsibility, kiddos.

Obvious end-point for progressive education. Four years (maybe) to become a farce. Hirable only by fellow snowflakes which is, unfortunately, a growth area for (duh) Academia, Foundations, Environmental NGOs, Government Bureaus and HR Depts within businesses (required by Government - of course!)

“We’re asking to be reflected in our education,” Adams cuts in. “I literally am so tired of learning about Marx, when he did not include race in his discussion of the market!”

What does race have to do with the market? (crickets)

activist students not only wanted to abolish all grades below a 'C,' they also thought faculty members should proactively offer them alternatives to taking a written, in-class midterm exam.

anti-effort mentality + expecting effects without causes + emotionalism = irrational libtard loser

Just give everyone above average grades.

“Students felt really unsupported in their endeavors to engage with the world outside Oberlin,” she told me.

Don't worry your little head about it darling, the world outside Oberlin is pointing its finger at you and laughing anyway.

Reaping the fruits of diversity, all perspectives are equally relevant no matter the depths of idiocy. I wish we could pull out the rug of all government wealth redistribution in the blink of an eye and watch these cockroaches either burn, starve, or evolve as they choose.

And Lake Woebegone, “where all the kids are above average”, was supposed to be satire.....
