[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you paid $40K for a car that turned out to be a lemon, would you say "well, life's not fair, guess I'll have to accept it" or would you be raising holy heck over it? That's my point for this -- we let colleges off the hook on too many things because "students need to deal with it" or "they need to learn life's not fair" or similar platitudes that do nothing to fix the underlying problem. Poor performance isn't acceptable in other walks of life -- why is it acceptable in education?[/quote] Well, comparing a college where a student will likely have over 30 different professors over 4 years to a car is not an appropriate analogy.[/quote]
