(The question of how this enthusiasm, strength and purpose is going to magically appear in a tough university atmosphere, when it hasn’t been enough to sustain a requisite performance in a low-level high school, goes unanswered.)

What a great article and a great post.

The dumbing down of America continues in runaway fashion.

BTTT for a great read.

The "Set of Circumstances" here Described depict a Culture which has ABANDONED MERIT as a Criterion for "Excellence" as a Criterion for Training for any "Leadership Position" in our Culture!!

We HEREBY have declared that THERE NO lONGER EXIST "Objective Criteria" by which we can "Judge" the Character or performance of any individual!

SOMEHOW, we have decided to ignore Merit when we Judge our next generation of Leaders!!

I THINK we Probably Need to re-assess how we educate our next generation of "Leaders."
