Diversity and math can't coexist. So math has to go. Diversity is all important now to colleges and universities. Idiot administrators only care about the money they are collecting, couldn't care less about quality of education.

Nor does reading and/or comprehension.

What were finding is a lot of students need remediation in math. Theyre not at a high school level. So what are they doing in collage?

No more cursive writing either. That's just whitey keeping 'em down.

They’re so bad at math that we can’t teach it...
That’s logical.
I will, however, enjoy watching them fade into nothing while the rest of the country booms.
And I hope in four years “diversity” only applies to new flavors of Oreo filling.

This trend is already showing up in everyday life when clerks and office managers can’t do simple math in their heads.

Increasingly college is becoming an utter waste of money. Universities are nothing but leftist indoctrination centers with no other meaningful purpose except to transfer vast sums of one’s future earnings to today’s ponytailed professors.

If they made PI an even 3 instead of 3.14 it would be a lot easier to figure out circles and balls. Maybe that is their problem.

Wanna bet that Dorkbama the Muslim eunuch, Nancy Botoxi, and Barba hadherearsboxed would all fail a good high school algebra test?
Further proof that my fave phrase “Math is not a friend of liberals” is becoming a fundamental truth of nature.

I will start believing they really want “diversity” when they start diversifying their employees with conservatives. Half the country is conservative, so by that measure, half of their staff should be conservative!

I was behind two college students in line at the grocery store who I assume were roommates splitting the bill. The clerk announced the total ($114), and one of them had to whip out a calculator to divide the tab in half.

Just give everyone a PhD in African-Studies and move them out the door. We don’t need any engineers anyway.

Wouldn’t physics, engineering, accounting, astronomy, etc., be a little difficult without math?

Thing about cursive is signing my name is the only thing I could do in cursive now. That is after years of doing block lettering on the drafting board.
Yes, I know there is now AutoCAD, but I started on the board. If you know what a Le Roy lettering guide is, you are dating yourself.
