And they should flunk their classes. Professors Issue Warning Over Surge in College Students Unable to Read - Slay News
But no. The professors will bend over backward to pass them, because anything else - like meritocracy - would be too conservative.
A growing number of college professors are sounding the alarm over a quiet but accelerating crisis on American campuses, as Gen Z students are arriving at universities unable to read at even a basic level.
Why should they be able to read. Their "teachers" haven't been teaching. They have been indoctrinating.
Jessica Hooten Wilson, a professor of great books and humanities at Pepperdine University, told the outlet:
“It’s not even an inability to critically think.
“It’s an inability to read sentences.”
Professors say it is the predictable outcome of a K–12 system that no longer ensures basic competence.
Standards were lowered, accountability eroded, and reading increasingly treated as optional.
Read the whole depressing thing. And then thank a Teachers' Union.
