Well, if the schools broke the law, yeah. But there will always be assholes and criminals in this world.
And if they are caught, hopefully they go to jail like this guy.

What did your commie God, Obama, do to fix what you think is broken. You’ve had 12 years of democrat party administration to fix whatever you are crying about since Bush left office.
Your party has failed American children more than No Child Left Behind ever could

Someone between their freshman and sophomore year.
Also, it could be a kid who earned AP credits in high school so it’s their 1st semester in college but are already almost a sophomore

Universities brought it on themselves when they allowed the SAT and ACT to be "optional" for admission.
Average test scores are down too. It’s a symptom of a larger problem.

t’s because there are shite loads of kids in public schools that are just being passed through because you essentially can’t fail someone.
This has been true for years, but something has drastically changed recently with these kids. It wasn’t like this a few years ago.

I am not in any party so there is no "my party".
In education policy, I prefer GOP policies (standards, discipline) over Democrat one's (DEI, Politics over Punctuation) and this has always been my view.
Ir I were a billionaire in a wealthy part of America I would open up a school like this. A test to enter, spare me your recommendations, essays and activities. You only get in by doing great on the test. If you have test anxiety too bad, you won't pass the bar exam, a CPA exam, so why should I let you in now? Go be a plumber,
And no extracuriculars, no sports, no yearbook, no cheerleading, no school plays. Do that outside of school.
School should be for academics only.

How can an average be down? Isn’t the bell curve the whole purpose for standardized tests?

LSU is just as bad as any of those places. I graduated many years ago. My engineering degree was one of the more difficult and we had 1 student my freshman year graduate with a 4.0 (university medalist) that year and the next one was my senior year and again only one.
Now there are multiple every year but kids are apparently just “smarter” now.

This thread is about Freshmen in college. No Child Left Behind was fully replaced in 2015.
I'll let you do the math.

Nah.
I'm with you on the the first part of your post, not this part.
