Is College Pointless?
I’ve long thought that the fact that “no one fails” in school was something that made the whole thing silly. Failing has a negative connotation, but it also says that a person needs more work in a given area in order to master it.
That we have taken the teeth out of grading by continuing to process children forward even when they haven’t master basic skills is at the heart of our education problem in America.
