Note to Self: Throw any resumes from Cal State grads into the trash can.
Placent exams are raciss.
In other words, those who have no business in college.
Watch for the regular freshman math and English to be dumbed down to the remedial level or the teachers pressured to pass the incompetent.
We went from a fairly educated country to one where we reward stupidity and bring in the college educated from the third world. Suicidal. Thank you uniparty
A new reality is manufactured and “poof” the problem goes away.
“The hope is that these efforts will also help students obtain their degrees sooner — one of the public university system’s priorities. Cal State has committed to doubling its four-year graduation rate, from 19% to 40%, by 2025.”

Thus cheapening the value of a Cal State degree...
Will they lower tuition accordingly?
Just once, I would like to see something in society get TOUGHER rather than weaker.
Actually in some ways this could be good. Poor SAT/grades? No thank you. Try community college (which is also becoming even dumber; I know, working there).
MEMO
To: HR
From: The boss
Subject: Cal State
Effectively immediately, This company will hire no recent graduates of Cal States nor solicit no interns.
Cal State graduates are deemed sub par.
What am I missing here? The schools no longer will give placement tests. So, the school will not know those new students deficient in English and Math.
OK, so those students gain entry. Would they not, due to their insufficient English and Math knowledge, have a higher flunk out rate, or are the teachers going to dumb down the class exams so these unprepared students can simply glide through?
Unless they get the teachers to lower their standards, these students will be flunking out sooner than under the present system. That could be a good thing.
Ah . . . a new home for stupid high school graduates who will get worthless degrees . . . that’ll help get you hire, huh?
Oh, good. Maybe I can get in now.
CSU diplomas are now almost worthless in the job market
As if we needed another reason to not go to college.
Color me surprised.
I may be wrong, but I suspect that Cal State is being redesigned to be more like high school level used to be. As for remedial courses, I can remember when there was no such thing!
I maintain that the only thing that will restore this nation is a complete collapse of the *system* and then a miraculous rebirth ...based on God.
Standards?
Mexifornia don’t need no stinkin’ standards.
Pretty soon people will get their law degrees at Costco. I saw it in the movie Idiocrocy which really foretells the future.
I think it was George Carlin who said of lowering standards, “The only thing you’ll need to get into a college is a warm body and a pencil”.
Or something like that.
