The depressing fact is that 50 per cent of the entire

Yes, and most of those are from the US with the "Leave
no child behind act" that we must suffer with now.

I was just talking to a electrical instructor in a trade
school where they were called to a meeting to talk about
the 40+ sensors that had failing grades preventing them
from graduating. After the school's superintendent got
done, they all gave the failing students 60's to allow
graduation.
what kind of stupidity is that?



I remember a Properties of Structural Materials class I took, where I was
the top student of about 25. But I only received a semester grade of 3.6 on
a 4.3 scale. I talked to my advisor about this, and he said to remember that
sometimes the instructor is grading himself.


Hmm, I thought I canceled that message due a miss placed word "Sensor",
should be "Senior".
Oh well.
Well, I feel sorry for the students that really do work at it and
deserved what the work force should be accepting out there over what is
being pushed out on the public..

It may not be evident at the moment, but I see a major down fall in
our near future..

It may work out in the end sense they're those that still believe in
education (very few) how ever, they could be the models of our future
where we now have to many (Dumb)chiefs and not enough indians. More
indians are also favorable in a society of Mouse and Men.!

It seems that in some societies (no ranks stated here) feel that we
own them something with out offering any thing in return.

These are the opinions of an old fart (or near it any ways) not to be
taken seriously for any reason other than improving humanity.
