All three got exactly a 0.0 GPA there first semester?

Yes. If you don't mind answering, where did you go to school?

The reason I ask it because in Freshman English every student must pass a competency test. After five grammatical errors, you fail.

The answer is Jesuit.

I think it's Jesuit also.

From 8th grade thru 12th grade (public schools), my son went to state rally every year. He won state in English twice, and once in Trig/Advanced Math. (You can only go in one subject per year, so he was only allowed to go in Math once.) I know he also placed 2nd and 3rd several times several times in other subjects.

He knew almost all of the other school's best competitors. Brother Martin always did well as did Ben Franklin. At that particular time many of their best students came from public middle schools like Rudolph Matas Elementary / Haynes Middle before attending Brother Martin.

My son took three semesters of Calculus at Tulane during his Junior and Senior years of High School. He thought he would get a Tulane scholarship by setting the curve in three consecutive Calculus classes. The test average was typically 50 and he would score 100+ (bonus questions).

When he got a scholarship to UNO and decided to live in the dorm, his first three roommates were all Jesuit National Merit Semi-Finalists. Every one of them got a 0.0 GPA in their first semester at college. You just can't make this shite up.

From what I gather, Jesuit spends quite a while preparing their students for college acceptance testing. Maybe they prepared their students to do well in the tests, but coddling kids really doesn't prepare them for the real world.

It seems obvious that Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Ole Miss, Tennessee and Mississippi State recruit JC players to fill the in gaps in their lineups.

One reason is that the legal cost to execute criminals is far greater than the cost of life imprisonment.

Catahoulas are great dogs, but there are some things you should be aware of. Health wise, some Catahoulas may get hip dysplasia and suffer arthritis with pain due to limited hip motion. As you already found out, deafness and eye conditions are another condition they seem to inherit.

Training your dog is also going to be more problematic, but even more important since he can't hear. This is a breed that really needs to learn to accept their order in the pack. They can be very independent, territorial and protective. You have to be the Alpha leader, not the dog. (No, I'm not talking about OT wannabe slang.)

The easiest way to establish dominance would be to walk him on a leash and teach him to heel. It also gets rid of his excess energy. Most bad behavior in dogs is poor training by humans. Establish a good set of rules and eliminate confusion and your dog will be fine.

As I understand it, the French for grocery shopping involves the verb for "to make/to do" which is fare in Italian, and hacer in Spanish. Whatever it is in French, it likely to be part of the colloquial phrase in said language.

The expression derives from the French faire son marché, “to do one’s market shopping," faire translating either "to do" or "to make."
