So you either pass and get the credit hours or don't credit hours.

The GPA isn't printed on degrees. As long as they're not handing out credits regardless of output from the student then I don't see how this makes a difference in the value of their degree.

I swear right wing social media is looking for anything to bitch about...you'd think it is all orchestrated by women.

No, you take a few to really see what is going on in this country and where it is headed, if there is not a huge turn around. Attitude like yours is part of the reason why it is happening.

The cultural takeover template:

Left Coast/Boston-DC Corridor > Midwest > South

They have already made considerable progress, especially through their colonies we call universities

College is such a waste for 90% of folks Just speed run ChatGPT/claude everything and take worthless classes all for the excuse to party Not much learning anymore Kind of sad honestly .


I don't know but I want my doctor, dentist, anesthesiologist, architect, accountant, lawyer, optometrist, engineer who designs my office buildings and houses, engineer who designs my cars, computer guys, senior officials, and a slew of many others to have gone to college for at least four years, if not more.

No one worthwhile will go there….no one will hire a grad….

Can you imagine the job interview?

"What was your grade score in college?"

"Pass".

"No, you have to answer the question."

"Pass. That's my grade score".

"Ah. Next applicant please."
