I had no way of knowing, when I wrote this satire just three years ago, that in 2021 a lot of major colleges and universities would simply discard the SATs and not use them anymore as a measure of anyone’s preparedness for college.
They used to want to know if you were ready for college. But by now they’ve dumbed it down so much, a monkey is ready for college. It doesn’t even have to be a particularly smart monkey. The idea is to get everyone–yes, everyone–into some kind of college. Even if they have to offer free tuition! While at the same time paying out simply gorgeous salaries and pensions. And we will have 20 million nincompoops with degrees in Gender Studies.
These days, I think a monkey would be too advanced for the average college program and maybe even for a Master’s degree program.
See The Collected Works of Violet Crepuscular. It’s all that interbreeding.
One Democrat running for Governor in Arkansas is all for publicly paid college. He says we are already paying for Pre-K through the 12th grade so what’s four more years. What a jidrool.
And then it’ll be, we’re already payin’ em to get their bachelors, might as well pay for their Ph.D’s, too.
