Professor: ‘Grading is a quintessentially bourgeois practice’

When faced with a room full of boneheads, it is less embarrassing to avoid having to affirm the obvious. Anyone taking classes in Marxism has little between the ears. He understands his audience. The explanation just parries responsibility for avoiding the grading process.

I get annoyed at the statement that "we are all created equal". That's BS. Equality of treatment, not equality of results. Given a picnic table with a plain violin and a water fountain, we freely allow seating at the table and use of the water fountain. The person I'm going to hire will perform Flight of the Bumblebee on the violin. Everyone is invited to attempt the performance. Equality of opportunity and access. The best performer gets hire...provided the performance meets some minimum level of quality.
