Even the most stilted "academics" will tell you a four year degree today from a good university has ALMOST as much content knowledge as a good high school diploma in 1966
grade inflation, minority rights, lowest common denominator, ed schools that teach nothing, what do we expect? we LET the socialists and communists take over while we bragged about little Johnny's great inflated grades and he didn't even have to work....the rot came from within....now is the time to scrape the rotten cancer out of what used to be a storehouse and propagator of Western Civilization which ALWAYS acknowledged others....others just never acknowledge OUR rights and I'm damned sick and tired of taking this SHIT from half-assed and half-educated Communists !!! Period!!
C'mon, tell us how you REALLY feel! Don't hold back. :-)
Well said brother..I teach High School here in NJ so I know what you mean . I do my best with a failed system.BUT..Much of education is NOT only the schools but the parents. I just TEACH them , I dont bring them up. The parents are the WORSE.Each child is a little Prince and Princess.You say one word to a spoiled rotten kid and mom and dad are there the next day with a lawyer or 2 . There is NO dicipline at home at all .I can be the best teacher in the universe and the kid wont go far unless he has a home life that fosters education . That's why , for example , the Korean kids excell...college. as it is , is a waste.
