I’m not trying to make a joke, but well before this incidenthappened, when talking to people about grade inflation, I’d tell them that now in colleges to get less than a B in anything but science or engineering you’d have to never show up for class, take a test, or write a paper, and to get less than a C, you’d have to shoot someone in class.

When I was in college ( before the flood ), there was NO grade inflation to speak of, at any college.

Now, it is rampant everywhere! So is the fact that teachers ( ultra lefty ones ) lowering grades if a student doesn't agree with what the prof believes in, but comes to his/her own conclusions about things.
