I love the line where they quote the Cal State LA administrator as complaining that students can't get into remedial classes. Here is a novel idea, eliminate remedial classes, and raise the standards to eliminate freshmen who need remedial classes, let them start out and take those classes in Comm. colleges. This would help aleviate the budget problems; further, it might give HS students an extra bit of incentive to pay attention in class.
