They shouldn't be seeing calculus for the first time in their first year of college.

That is interesting. I took calculus in high school in 1966, and it was a nice boost going into engineering school. Despite all the talk of advancement, I'm not sure that students today learn as much as we did in the 60s.

I think they learn MORE!

It just happens to be the wrong stuff!
