Problem: Education majors have the lowest SAT scores on campus. Too many of our government teachers are utterly incapable of doing math themselves.
Solution: Make all government teachers sit in college level Calculus courses with math and science majors. Of course this might shut down the government schools since few government teachers could pass Calculus.
By the way, I think **all** government teachers should be required to pass the GED for high school graduates. I’d give them a month to prepare. This might shut the government schools down too given the number who would fail ( especially the math section.)
It was well-known at my college that if you couldn’t do ANYTHING, then go for an education major. It was a “can’t-fail” major. I knew a couple of folks who were majoring in education, too. Horrifying that parents are now entrusting their kids’ minds to them...
