[quote=Anonymous]It is a good question and I think the answer is that standards have dropped at every level. I am a liberal but have to say that the curiculm culture wars of the 60's and 70's especially on the left destroyed high quality standarized education. E.D. Hirshe writes about this alot. That and it is really hard for parents to be on top of their kids education when they both work or they are single parents. I know I personally feel that I am somehow shorting my kid and despereately want to relay on the babysitter in the box. Finally college does not really appear to require it. http://thechoice.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/01/17/academically-adrift/ So is our economy screwed, yes unless figure out how to continue to drain the rest of the world of their high performing graduates, [/quote]
