Most students at community colleges and four-year schools showed intermediate skills. That means they can do moderately challenging tasks, such as identifying a location on a map.

You sure don't get much to show today for a $200,000 college education.

I went to a local community college to take a course or two. What struck me the most was the fact that there were so many remedial courses offered. Our kids graduate from High School and then need classes to bring them up to speed for freshman college courses. There is something really wrong with our public schools.
