Easy--no exam.
When I was going for MBA, back in the mid 1970's, the evening classes at Baruch College in NYC utilized the same classrooms as City College students used in the daytime.
Now, as an aside--CCNY was one of the great success stories in 20th Century higher education. Admissions were very competitive and admission standards, as well as the standards for those in attendance were very high. Many, many successful doctors, lawyers, writers and other professionals, usually first or second-generation Americans, owed a great deal to this fine institution. (Incidentally, I did not attend there.)
And then, in the mid-1960s, the specter of racism was brought up and CCNY was forced, politically, to change to an open-enrollment model. Which brings me back to the classroom I sat in at night: Lessons were still on the board from the daytime. Lessons like "How to make a word plural." (Hint, usually, but not always, add an "s.") "Proper use of the apostrophe." The college students were being taught basic grammar skills that they should have learned in third grade. I never was in an evening class where math had been taught in the daytime, but I am sure the level was similar.
Bottom line--all the liberal paragons of virtue have done, in their fruitless quest for "Cosmic Justice," as Thomas Sowell so eloquently calls it, is to denigrate everyone's education by teaching to the lowest common denominator. And a wonderful college like CCNY became no better than the average community college in a not-very-bright community.
Unreal - well we do have that shining example of florida’s institutions of higher learning (Florida A&M)Corinne Brown and her ‘go gatuh” and “Corch Meyers” ....so I’m not sure we should expect more from their junior college system.
Somehow I missed the exam for business math so I wouldn’t have to suffer through it. It was excruciating with minority students from NYC unable to add and subtract simple numbers. I was spellbound the first week of class, then I just did my other homework and put in my time. Most boring thing I ever did in college.
