[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Making calculus a graduation requirement and not guaranteeing a high school diploma would fix a ton of our issues
[/quote]

How ridiculous.  Unless one is going into a STEM field, calculus is completely unnecessary - and useless.[/quote]
“Calculus is useless” is exactly why our education system is so bad. So many parents happy to have ignorant kids.[/quote]

NP. I see that the "only STEM matters, only STEM careers are valid careers" folks are here. Sure, there is nothing else on Earth of value except your beloved STEM, and calculus is essential to every possible way of life.  :roll:

And my Ph.D.s in both math and physics spouse agrees with me, not you, by the way. STEM is not the be-all and end-all of jobs or life. [/quote]
I agree with your broader point, but your assertions are just speculative. They didn’t say stem was the only thing that mattered anywhere in their comment. It makes you sound anti-intellectual.[/quote]
