: 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.
