How much money has the state already invested in those freshmen before they even start? $100,000, $120,000? How much of that came from the Federal teat? And if they were deficient, why were they admitted?
It ALL came out of our pockets!!!
Indeed, why?
Upholding stricter admissions standards would accomplish two things. First, it would reduce the need for CSU to offer remedial instruction. Second, it would send a strong message to the high schools, the students, and their families that they need to do a better job.
