To: left that other site

It’s what happens when you become a Marxist. Penn State went hard left in the late 1960s—after I graduated (’65). I have gone from proud, to disappointed to ashamed of my school.

Every administration since Eric Walker has pushed Penn State further left. The entity somewhat disguising that trend was sports—especially football.

I left my college in the middle of my second year (1971). It was because they changed their grading system from a traditional A-F Grade Point System to a more “egalitarian” and “Collectivist’ Pass/fail system...all one had to to do pass was show up. Up till that point I had been an All-A Student.

Years later, when I tried to continue my degree, my new educators REFUSED to give me credit for my first three semesters because of the pass/fail transcript.

So, all my life, I just taught myself what I needed to know. And I do OK.
