You want straight A’s? Just demand ’em!
[Thanks to “OhioChessFan” for the nooze tip.]
This story’s so insane, I can hardly write a headline for it. My friend OCF at first thought it was one of my parodies.
Well, it ain’t.
Students at The New School, New York, recently showed their support for a part-timers’ strike by “occupying” the campus. When the part-timers got what they wanted… the students then demanded straight A’s for all–even for students who cut most of their classes (https://jonathanturley.org/2022/12/17/a-is-for-audacity-new-school-students-demand-as-for-all-courses-regardless-of-attendance-after-protests/).
They also demanded that all the top brass at the school resign.
Hot dog! “Higher education.” “Ooh, look! I graduated the New School with straight A’s! Can I has a top-paying Job nhow?”
It would be virtually impossible to come up with a more vivid illustration of the profound uselessness of a modern college, er, “education.”
