Students believed that Venkatesan did not accept opinions contrary to her own and would lower the grades of students who disagreed with her, the student said.

This is very common, especially in the non-scientific courses. My "History of Cleveland" class was my first introduction to the concept of highly-biased teaching. Throughout my 5 or 6 years of part-time school after that, I witnessed several classes where you had to agree with the professor to obtain a respectable grade.

Now would be a good time to break up the monopoly that is called an education system in this country. But as long as the leftist/socialists also serve as the accrediting authority, we can expect this to get worse.

What’s gonna suck for me, as a homeschooler, is teaching two sets of curriculum.

Here’s the truth, but here’s what you’re going to be required to profess in order to get good grades.
