[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These threads are distortions of reality and are pretty demoralizing. I teach a lot of college kids who are not standout high school students, and the assumption that kids need to be 4.0 rockstars with pristine backgrounds to be worthy of attending a college that is worth their time and money is preposterous. Plenty of kids who are average -- truly truly average -- make something of themselves in college, and their learning and my (and my colleagues) teaching has value and potential. Not every kid is and should be college bound. But certainly more kids are college worthy, and more colleges are worth attending, than DCUM makes it seem. [/quote] Thank you, good teacher. [/quote] + infinity thx.[/quote]
