why any college should be offering remedial classes?

The "education establishment" is all about making money for the "education establishment".

So one of the keys is making a high percentage of the undergrads take 5 yrs instead of 4 to graduate. And believe me those remedial classes cost just as much as the "real" ones.

The question I asked was a question I already knew the answer to.

The better question is...."WHY aren't these kids already prepared for college?"

Of course....I already know the answer to that question also.
