All the folks who didn’t bother to work the problems or get help from the instructor are cheering.

Algebra is one of the few things most people use through out their lives. Many just don’t realize it

When I retired I went to the local community college to study art. Most of the students are completely ignorant of fractions. Many can not read a ruler. This is the flat out truth.

These kids are not stupid. It is completely the fault of the “New-new- math” curriculums in the schools.
