I AGREE!! We have already lowered the standards on what students are allowed
to attend colleges (i'm refering to the state univ that I teach at -- I know
that ANYONE can attend a community college).......... We can't just keep
lowering the standards or a college education will mean nothing. Stick with
the 2.00 average! If they get out with any lower, they'll just end up at a
university which they won't be prepared for.
