Dean of the university taps the professor on the shoulder and explains that the university needs to have all the students in that class do well...

And this is happening where?

One day, the Dean of the university taps the professor on the shoulder and explains that the university needs to have all the students in that class do well... the professor explains that several students are not doing well... the Dean tells the professor to reduce the required reading material and to spend more time in class with the students who are falling behind.....

If this is the case - and I do not honestly think this situation occurs very often - then we have affirmative action run amok, which is obviously not a good thing. I don't see this situation as inevitable at all. Like anything else, if the program is managed without some attention to common sense, it will not work very well.
