koan, I apologize as well and will make one last reply on this thread. About going too far left, Senator Mccaskill has something to say about this at the end of this segment on Morning Joe. Seems to make sense to me msnbc.com As to not everyone being college material, I went to City College New York during the period of open enrollment. There was a lot of money wasted on students that did the minimum to string out payments they got for attending college but didn't really try during that time period. Now there were quite a few that did use the opportunity and there were those that tried but did not have the fundamentals to be where they were, but to me, looking back, there was a lot of waste. A big part of the problem back then was that there were students that were always in remedial classes. There was no reason why they should have been at college. My sister who has been a special education teacher for decades at one of the colleges sees some of the same. Some students try real hard and some are there to take up space. Just saying what I experienced. I am all for education and for people to go as far as they can. But it needs to make sense for everybody, or we are just wasting time and money. One of my chemistry professors was teaching a class( I can't remember if it was remedial or not) talked about coming up with test questions He would ask about something and the multiple choice answers he would provide were a)increases b)decreases c)remains the same d)none of the above He was always take aback by how many chose d.
