In SF it is possible that perhaps all students will just be given their straight A report card adn graeduated. Then whwen they actually hit a place of semi-learning they will scream racism. Gavin Newsom is a clown who is confused about his sexuality. BUT he is one of the most dangerous guys around. Too bad they keep electing him

To: the long march

There are way more colleges now than students. I have to wonder if this was done to prevent having to layoff/downsize teachers at the college.

As far as grade inflation, we see it all the time in GA which has the hope scholarship. AS long as you graduate from high school with a B average, the state pays your college tuition at a state school (I believe the program has been expanded so GA will also pay for Auburn and Clemson tuitions.)

The dirty secret of the hope scholarship is that a huge number of students lose their it their first year in college, because you have to maintain a B average in college to keep it.
