“Seniors in college can’t do 3rd grade math from 100 years ago.”

That’s true. At the family homestead, Hubby found some text books my aunt used when she taught elementary school in the 1920s, in one-room schoolhouse. He’s a physicist, and could not believe the level of difficulty those kids dealt with. It was stuff he recalled from high school and college.
