11/29/06: My Instupendents

My instupendents refers to the fact that the faculty that I hire are retarded. One of them went so far as to tell as student IN WRITING that "they should have earned an F and were lucky to get the C that I gave you." What the hell are they thinking? As an admin, I can tell you that my first thought is..."If the student earned a F, why did you give them a C, fool?" Isn't this the problem with all of academia? Instructors give students the grades that they DON'T deserver which makes the students think that their minimum is the requirement for the A? We are our own worst enemies...and the students who think that they are winning by "earning" these grades...they are the ultimate losers.
